Sažetak
Based on an official report of the legal representative (procurator) of the Benedictine nunnery of St Mary in Zadar, the paper discusses the size of monastic estates in the second half of the 16th century (1562-1564). The report is today preserved in the Venetian magistracy collection Sopraintendenti alle decime del clero at the State Archives of Venice (Archivio di Stato di Venezia). Considering the value of the recorded data and the fact that the Archive of the monastery of St Mary in Zadar, as far as is known, has no systematic data on its estates for the period under consideration, the report on the estates of the Benedictine nuns of St Mary is an excellent contribution to the knowledge of the economic situation and transactions of Zadar’s nuns in the 16th century and complements the results of previous scholarly research. In addition, these data, especially the list of colons in individual villages owned by the monastery, are a first-class source for exploring the historical anthroponymy and toponymy of Zadar and its wider surroundings.
