Abstract
The paper examines excerpts from several Ottoman defters from the late 16th and early 17th centuries,
which describe the present-day Solin area. By combining data from these sources with previously
known information (medieval and Venetian), the study attempts to reconstruct the appearance of
the Solin landscape during the late Middle Ages and the Early Modern Age. In addition, the paper
highlights the significance of Ottoman written sources in researching the history of Solin and the
wider Dalmatian region.
