Toponomy of Funtana from its beginnings to the end of 18th century
Gianpaolo Gergeta
Sažetak
On the west coast of Istria, between Poreč and Vrsar, the village Funtana is located containing two freshwater springs. The hill with the church and the Kastel hides a hillfort, and on Školjić are the remains of a fortified settlement from the Bronze Age. Ancient remains testify to the intense life between Cape Sakov and Cape Zorna and the 1st century country villa with an aqueduct attached to Funtana springs. Frà Mauro shows the area of Funtana on the map dated to 1440. In his guidebook, Alvise da Mosto (1477) lists the islands and ports of Funtana that are important for navigation. Pietro Coppo shows the settlement ual de fontane on the 1525 map of Istria. The Funtana forests are listed in the Fabia da Canal cadastre (1566). Todayʼs Funtana was created by the arrival of the nobleman from Bar, Bernardo Borisi, who in 1593 received lands in the areas of Acquadizza, Fontana, Monte Pighera and Scoglio Riviera, and brought peasants from Zeta. The cartographer Magini on his map from 1620 marks a new settlement as C[astel]. Boresi. In 1648, Pietro Borisi bought the title and jurisdiction over Funtana for 1000 ducats, thus becoming its first count. The names of the forests and hills used by the descendants of the settlers are recorded in Morosiniʼs 1775 cadastre. In the second half of the 18th century, Vidali, Salmon, Santini, Valle and Capellaris made maps of Istria with toponyms related to the Funtana area.
