JUGOISTOK GARIĆKOG ŽUPANATA U 13. I 14. STOLJEĆU
THE SOUTHEAST OF GARIĆ COUNTY IN THE 13TH AND 14TH CENTURY

Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses the manors that were situated in the territory surrounded by today’s towns of Garešnica, Dišnik, Velika Bršljanica and Gojlo, particularly on the basis of reambulations from 1256 and of other written sources. Among other possessions there were the manors of Saint John of the Berivoj family, Dišnik of the Ruh family and Desnica of the Kapitanić family. Various hypotheses can be found in literature as to where these places were located; hence, this paper is a new contribution to the precise location of elements of the cultural scenery in the area mentioned. The paper is divided into five chapters. In the first four chapters the manors of Garešnica, Dišnik, Desnica and Gojlo are discussed on the basis of written sources; in accordance with the attached maps a reconstruction of the borders of the manors has been proposed. On the borders of some of the manors, Juraj, the son of Berivoj, was mentioned as a neighbour whose manor has not been located with certainty to date. In this paper the more precise location of this manor is associated with the place named Kapelica near Garešnica. The manor of the Berivoj family adjoined the manor of Descha, which had in the second half of the 13th century been acquired by Count Ruh, and it can be correlated with the area of today’s Dišnik. In the western part of the Berivoj and Ruh manors there were two estates named Desnica, located on today’s little Bršljanica River, in the territory of today’s villages of Veliko Vukovje and Velika Bršljanica. In the eastern part of all the places mentioned there was the manor of Gojlo, owned by the Teteny (de Pukur) family.
