Abstract


The author has published the katastichon of St. Mary’s Confraternity at Velo Selo and of Our Lady’s of Spilice church on the island of Vis with a number of documents about its activity. The confraternity was founded in 1511 and this katastichon contains its rules and a list of the first fraternities and of all the real estates inherited from a number of bequeathers. From this katastichon it is possible to learn about the business transactions of the confraternity, the large number of the toponyms on Vis and Hvar, and about the inhabitants of these two islands. Therefore this katastichon has also a special significance for the study of the Croatian language of 17th century for all the documents are from that period.
