Summary/Abstract: The legal status of the voynuk bashtina as a base of the agriculture activity of the voynuk households from the Central Balkans during the first two centuries of the Ottoman rule is made clear in the article on the basis of the Ottoman legislation from XVI century. New information about the structure and size of the agricultural parcels in the voynuk bashtinas is presented according to the data from some published and unpublished Ottoman registers. The regional characteristics of the voynuk landowning can be clearly seen, mostly in North West Thrace, Sofia and Kyustendil regions.
