Sažetak

The paper focuses on the research of details from the military career of Nikola Medin, originally from Paštrovići (conte di Castel Lastva), a colonel of the Venetian overseas infantry (Fantiol tramarini) in the last decades of the Venetian Republic. The paper is based on the analysis of materials from the State Archives in Zadar (holdings: General Providuri for Dalmatia and Albania) and - to a greater extent - on the processing of documents from the Archivio di Stato di Venezia (holdings: Inquisitori sopra l'amministrazione dei pubblici ruoli). The introductory part of the paper summarises general data from the past of Paštrovići during the Venetian rule, with particular reference to the involvement of the local population in the Venetian trans-Adriatic land units (infantry: Fantiol tramarini and cavalry: Cavalleria Croati or Croati a cavallo). The share of the Medin family in the Venetian army is summed up, and their ranks are stated. Most of the work focuses on the analysis of data about the promotion of Nikola Medin from the rank of deputy captain to colonel. The focus is placed on an in-depth analysis of the list of his personal companies from 1788 to 1796 with emphasis on the native origin of the soldiers he personally commanded. It was determined that some of the soldiers could be counted in the professional infantry, while some of them belonged to the territorial militias, i.e. cernides. Attached are lists of military personnel in Colonel Medin's personal companies (compagnia propria) which are analysed here.
