Sažetak
Prompted by the Ottoman penetration into the Balkan Peninsula and the south-east of Europe, Christian countries and the Papacy invested efforts in the creation of an anti-Ottoman alliance. Fearing that Sultan Mehmed II intended to attack Rome and, in that manner, after his conquest of Constantinople, unite his rule over both Christian capitals, Pope Pius II, with the support of the Republic of Venice, whose possessions on the Peloponnese and on the eastern coast of the Adriatic were particularly threatened, proclaimed the crusade. Due to the lack of diplomatic sources revealing the participation of Dalmatian galleys at the beginning and in the first operations of the crusade, about which little was known in Croatian historiography, only occasional notes in different testaments of participants reveal a certain amount of fragmentary information. Because of that, this article, as an initial study of the wider research into fifteenth-century Dalmatian crusaders, identifies both commanders and the name of one of Šibenik’s galleys, detects the place where one of them was buried, and presents a survey of material objects carried by them to the Peloponnese.
