Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the position and development of Gabela on the Neretva under Ottoman rule. This is the period during which Gabela, as part of the Herzegovinian Sandzak, acquires the status of a town (kasaba), the center of the kadiluk and a military center with an established captaincy. The continuity of this place with the medieval Drijeva is pointed out. The focus is on economic life, primarily the importance of the Neretva ferry. The general importance of the salt trade, which was dominated by the people of Dubrovnik,was emphasized. The business conditions in Gabela, which was gravitated to by businessmen from the wider hinterland, are being monitored. A review is also given of the Venetian conquest of the Gabel fortress (Čitluk) achieved in June 1694 during the Moravian War (1684-1699)
