OVERVIEW OF ZAGREB’S LATE MEDIEVAL TOPONYMY

Branimir Brgles ; Institut za hrvatski jezik i jezikoslovlje, Zagreb

Abstract

The author analyses the historical attestations of Zagreb’s place-names. Most of the attestations come from the 13th century. The oldest toponyms are descriptive, named after the specific appearance or layout of the subject being named. In the Sava river valley, part of the modern city of Zagreb, prevail toponyms which could be linked to the influence of the river, the changes of the riverbed and the marshy land around it.
