Summary/Abstract: This study is based on the analysis of archived documents on real estate trading among Split’s craftsmen in the period from 1443-1449. These records have remained preserved in a notarial volume assembled by Domnik de Manfredis during his service in Split, and are kept today at the State Archives in Zadar, in the Old Split Archive collection. The volume comprises 16 notebooks referring to the period from 1441- 1449, but for the purposes of this analysis, only notebooks 3-16 have been taken into account, as the first two are very badly damaged and that makes reconstruction of a significant part of the text impossible.
