Abstract:
This article presents a critical edition, accompanied by commentary, of six notarial documents preserved in the Procuratori di San Marco archival fonds of the State Archives in Venice. The documents pertain to the cities of Zadar, Skradin, Šibenik, and Split, and date from the 13th to the 15th century. The aim of this selection is to underscore the significance of this particular archival collection (which, in terms of content, closely resembles the Notarili archival fonds), for the study of medieval Dalmatia and Croatia, particularly in the late Middle Ages. The following documents are published: 1) a contract of service for Dominik, son of Ivana from Sclavonia, with Biagio Semitecolo in Zadar (1280), 2) a grant of a mill site in Skradin to Grgur, a cavalry constable from Šibenik (1357), 3) the will of Luka Kožičić of Šibenik (1422), 4) the execution of a prior sentence in favour of Angesina, widow of Luka Kožičić of Šibenik (1431), 5) the appointment of Orsato as legal procurator by his brother Dionisio Iustinian in matters concerning family inheritance (1444), 6) the will of Maddalena (Madalucia, Maddaluzza), wife of Antonio Donato, castellan of Split (1469).
