Oikonyms Zadar, Trogir and ?ibenik in the Kri?evci County at the End of the 15th Century?DOI: 10.21857/mzvkptzlz9 Keywords: historical anthroponymy, historical migrations, toponymy, 15th century Croatian history Abstract: Sa?etak One of the oldest and best preserved 16th century inventories (manorial urbaria) of Slavonian manors is the urbarium of Velika and Me?uri? dating from 1519. This historical source has been largely used in onomastic literature because it contains four very interesting historical toponyms. These interesting and unusual names are Zadar, ?ibenik, Trogir and Benetke, the names of medieval towns situated on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea, hundreds of kilometres from the Kri?evci County, where they were located by the 1519 urbarium. The author analyses the historical documents that contain mentions of these toponyms, and tries to establish where exactly in the Kri?evci County they were situated. This question is placed within a broader context of migrations that occurred in the 15th and 16th centuries
