Slavište

Slavište, also known as the Kriva Palanka Plain,[1] is a historical region around Kriva Palanka, in northeastern Republic of Macedonia, once by the medieval fortified town of Slavište,[2] also known as Gradište,[3] west of the modern town. The name Slavište is first mentioned in 1321, in the Gračanica charter of Stefan Milutin, though it is believed to be older.[4] During the Serbian Empire (1345-1371), the Slavište župa (county) consisted of the surrounding of modern-day Kriva Palanka which was the hereditary land of the Paskačić noble family. It was to the east of the Žegligovo župa, surrounding modern-day Kumanovo, and to the southwest of Osogovo, part of the land of the Dejanović noble family.[5] In 1573, the nahia of Slavište was recorded.[3] The region is used in neotectonics.[6]

Pod tim imenom prvi put se pominje 1321. g. u povelji srpskog kralja Milutina izdatoj manastiru Gračanici.16 To oblasno ime svakako je znatno starije od pisanog pomena. Ono jasno ilustruje i etničke prilike u oblasti: bilo je u tesnoj vezi sa opštom etničkom prošlošću nastalom u ranom srednjem veku.17 Sem toga u oblasnom imenu vidi se brojnost slovenskog življa odmah po njegovom naseljavanju. Međutim, da se jedna oblast ili naselje nazivaju imenom narodnosti — Slavište, uzrok je bio nesumnjivo i u tome što je u okolini bilo autohtonih stanovnika druge narodnosti, u ovom slučaju ro- manizovanih Vlaha.
