THREE MEDIEVAL ESTATES ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE OF BILOGORA: BEŠENOV SV. BENEDIKT, RAČICA, AND GOTALOVEC
Ranko Pavleš
Sažetak
The paper analyzes data on three medieval estates on the southern side of Bilogora: Bešenov Sveti Benedikt, Račica, and Gotalovec with special emphasis on their topography. Three historic parishes, Saint Benedict, Saint Stephen the First Martyr, and Saint Cross, are associated with these three estates. The aforementioned estates’ descriptions and other relevant information were examined. If the mention of their owners and neighbors is crucial to resolving topographical issues, such details are also included. A particular focus is on the network of watercourses and the interpretation of their medieval names, that serve as the basis of the general historical topography. Since the area was uninhabited for nearly a century, reconstructing the medieval status of the aforementioned estates and the surrounding area is very challenging. As a result, there is no demographic continuity from the Middle Ages to the Present, and the historical local names have only been partially preserved.
