OSMANSKI DRNIŠ: POPISNI DEFTERI, NARATIVNA VRELA I ARHEOLOŠKI OSTATCI KAO IZVORI ZA (RE)INTERPRETACIJU OSMANSKE HISTORIJE U DANAŠNJOJ DALMACIJI
In the second half of the 16th and in the first half of the 17th century Drniš was an important Ottoman town on the border with the Venetian Republic in the sancak of Klis, in nahiye Petrovo polje. It was founded on the trade route that linked the western parts of the Bosnian eyâlet via Knin to the Šibenik port on the Adriatic coast. The paper explores the urban development of Drniš based on information from the Ottoman archival materials (detailed and summary tax records, the records of mustahfizes in the Drniš fortress including their timars, documents from the collection Mühimme defterleri), Evliya Chelebi’s autograph and existing historiographical literature.
