| Abstract: | This paper is an attempt to research and present banditry in Zeta against Dubrovnik merchants during the reign of the Balšići (1360–1421). The research has been mostly based upon analysis of documentation from the State Archives in Dubrovnik: Lamenta de foris (Note 1–4), Debita Notariae (Note 8), Diversa Cancellariae (Note 30) as well as upon some historical literature. In the first part of the work, land and sea routes between Dubrovnik and Zeta were presented as well as legislative regulations dealing with robbery and banditry prevention on the ground. In the second part, according to some separated and written documents (complaints), the banditry was presented chronologically, as a specific form of micro-history, describing the daily routines and destinies of merchants and ordinary people. Furthermore, names of bandits and victims were identified, as well as goods that were robbed on the territory of Zeta. In this paper, the author defines banditry, as well as all other illegal acts, that resulted in violence against merchants from Dubrovnik, by seizing their property by force. |
