Trebinjska vlastela Poznanovići
Poznanovićs – The Nobles From Trebinje

Summary/Abstract: The family Poznanović are important Trebinje’s nobles from the end of the 14th and the first half of the 15th century. They had estates northeast from Trebinje in Pobrđe which lay on the main road communications – Bosnian (Drina) and Nikšić road. This enabled them to act as road robbers who often harassed merchants from Dubrovnik. They belonged to seniors from the Pavlović family. The main representatives of the family are Poznan and his sons Vukoslav, Ostoja Poznanović, and Vukoslav’s son Radič Vukosalić. The paper discusses the issue of Vukoslav Poznanović’s title as a duke as well as the time of his appearance on the historical scene.
