Sažetak

On the basis of the preserved correspondence, archival sources and information from the relevant literature author discusses and argues commonly accepted fact that well known humanist from Šibenik and ecclesiastical dignitary Antun Vrančić (1504 – 1573) was born
on 29th May but that exact date of his birth was 30th May 1504. Author has collected all the relevant literature that states Vrančić’s complete birth date, and consequently he has showed that the majority of authors usually have copied this date from the previous literature. In opposition to such practice author of this article tried to argue this commonly accepted birth date, corraborating her standpoint with various arguments and date calculations. The most important sources for her discussion were a letter of Antun Vrančić from 1569, Vrančić’s horoscope from 1569 and genealogy of the Vrančić family from the nineteenth century that are presently kept in Széchény library in Budapest and in State Archives in Rijeka. Beside this argumentation, author also describes life path and achievements
of Antun Vrančić.
