Vrhbosna was the medieval name of a small region in today's central Bosnia and Herzegovina, centered on an eponymous settlement that would later become part of the city of Sarajevo. The meaning of the name of this Slavic župa is "the peak of Bosnia". The only known fortification in the area at the time was Hodidjed.〔 The existence of a significant individual settlement of Vrhbosna was recorded in the 14th and 15th centuries.〔 Vrhbosna was first attacked by the Ottoman Empire in 1416,〔 and it was finally taken in 1451.〔〔〔〔 Vrhbosna persisted shortly after the Ottoman conquest of Bosnia, but soon the name went out of use.〔〔 In 1550, a Venetian traveller Caterino Zeno was the first westerner to use the term ''Sarraglio'' (Italianized form of Sarajevo) instead of Vrhbosna to describe the place.〔 Its name is preserved in the name of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vrhbosna. ==References== bs:Vrhbosna (župa) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vrhbosna」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
