Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on separate facts from the Bosnian miscellany 116 (54), kept in the Plovdiv Library. Known from the works of B. Tsonev and Y. Ivanov, with the book by L. Nakaš the manuscript is brought back to the attention of the present-days scholarly community. The Bosnian Cyrillic alphabet and the textual content are the reason to think about a relationship between alphabets, history, and identity. The hypothesis of possible presence of traces of the Bosnian Christians’old beliefs is also discussed.
