Sažetak

Based on the archive sources, the paper presents some of the hitherto unknown fatcs regarding the existence and location of the village of Filipović in the vicinity of Drniš. It was a settlement located in the present area of Miljevci. The data analysis, done by a micro-sociological approach and the Venetian landregistry (1709 and 1735-37) has shown that the village of Filipović was situated between the villages and Karalić and Širitovci and that the tri-border point of the
villages of Karalić, Drinovci and Filipović was located near St Paul’s church.
According to the first Venetian land-registry of 1709, the village of Filipović consisted of ten households with a total of 79 inhabitants, the household average amounting to 7.9 or 8 members. Although this was a pre-traditional family, both the extended and nuclear families can be discerned. The most numerous family of one of the brothers had fourteen members, while the least numerous was the one consisting of four members. The list comprises eight surnames, fi ve of which are still extant. However, the area now belongs to the village of Širitovci.
According to the population strucuture, the same year recorded fifteen able-bodied men (potential soldiers), twenty-three boys, nineteen women and twenty-two girls.
The village of Filipović boasted a livestock comprising four saddle-horses, fifteen pack-horses, thirty-three oxen, fourty-two cows, thirty-five calves and 258 sheep. In the land-registry eighty-two plots were recorded. However, a part of the land was owned by the population of other villages (Karalić, Širitovci, Drinovci, Brištani, etc.). The total arable land covered an area of 170 acres, 11 under vineyards,
while the total area of the village of Filipović was 884. The archive data has been verifi ed by the fi eld research, establishing that the village of Filipović is unknown among the present inhabitants of Širitovci, which has obviously absorbed and covered the former village of Filipović. However, the toponym of Pilipovci (designating a swamp) still seems to exist in the local memory, thereby preserving
the name of a village which apparently disappeared in the course of the 18th century, during the process of ordering and regulating estates and settlements conducted by the Venetian Republic.
