Prvi spomeni Višegrada i Kuknja u srednjem vijeku / The First Mentions of Višegrad and Kukanj in the Middle Ages

Abstract

The author analyzes the way that the first mention of Višegrad and Kukanj in historical sources has been presented. He notices discrepancies in lexicographical works which have been caused by a distinct lack of verification of claims made in historiographic literature. On the examples of Višegrad and Kukanj he brings to light a new material basis for future lexicographic elaborations. As the main reason for this situation he identifies the absence of modern approaches to the history of Višegrad and Kukanj in the Middle Ages.
