Sažetak

This article deals with the emergence and importance of maps made by the Italian military architect Niccolo Angielini (Nicolaus Angielus) during the second half of the sixteenth century for the military border fortifications in Hungarian and Croatian territories. Generally, this encompasses four maps: 1. Croatia et Sclavonia, 2. Ditio inter Mvram et Dunvbivm, 3. Montanae civitates, and 4. Superior Vngaria. The author analyses the content of these maps and, in particular, the methods and content used to present the border fortifications of the time. This analysis sheds new light on the period of defence against the Ottomans on the border with the Ottoman Empire during the sixteenth century.
