Sažetak
There is no doubt that animals have been slaughtered in our country for a long time, but the first written information about this subject - the place of slaughter and the way meat was sold, the price of meat, the supervision of slaughter and meat inspection, comes from legislation. We find it in the medieval regulations of Istrian and coastal towns and islands, while some of these have been mentioned since the 13th century. It has long been known that unhealthy, spoiled meat is dangerous to human health, which is why the sale of meat from animals that died of natural causes or sicknesses is legally prohibited in our region (Split Statute, 1310; Šibenik Statute, 1378; Trogir Statute, 1322; Hvar Statute, 1331, Buzet Statute, 1435, Dvigrad Statute, 1413), and the Rijeka Statute (1530) that also prohibited the sale of spoiled meat. The fraternity or association of butchers in Zagreb was first mentioned in 1387. In the 15th century, three fraternities in Varaždin are mentioned: the fraternity of St. Nicholas, the fraternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the fraternity of the Body of Christ. In Zagreb, an Order on the organization of slaughterhouse services was passed in 1425, and once again in 1458. The butcher’s guild has existed in Zagreb since 1547, in Varaždin since 1589, in Koprivnica since 1676, and in Osijek since 1776. Meat appraisers have been mentioned in Varaždin since 1455, and since 1456 the price of meat has been determined by the type of meat in that city. In 1458, the City Government of Varaždin issued a very strict decision on meat hygiene. The butcher’s guild in Varaždin had a chest dating from 1630 and a flag from 1641, while a new one was made in 1653. The flag of the Zagreb butcher’s guild from the 14th century has not been preserved.
