Drijeva known in Venetian as Narenta, was a medieval customs town and marketplace located in what is today the village of Gabela, Bosnia and Herzegovina.[1] It was held by the Kingdom of Serbia until the War of Hum (1326–29), when it was passed to the Banate of Bosnia.[2] It was an early colony of the Republic of Ragusa established in the second half of the 14th century.[3][4][5]

History[]

In ancient times, the city of Naronexisted in the area of medieval Drijeva. In the written sources of Dubrovnik Drijeva appears under the name of Lat. Narenti, forum Narenti, mercatum. The first mention dates back to 1186, when The Serbian zoupan Stefan Nemanja gave the Ragusans freedom to trade in Drijeva's market. Around 1280 the market was owned by George, the son of Prince Andria. At the beginning of the 14th century, Drijeva was ruled by the Serbians. The trade with and entire Neretva region became part of the Bosnian state under the Bosnian ban Stjepan II Kotromanić, who added entire region with Zahumlje, Travunija, Primorije and Narenta, to his realm as Hum in 1326, and placed it under Kosača family over-lordship. Ragusans, who traded in Drijeva, paid up to six thousand ducats (1356) annually for the rent. From 1357 to 1382, the market was part of the possession of the Hungarian King Louis I. Since 1404, Drijeva was owned by Bosnian duke Hrvoje Vukčić, and from 1410 by Bosnian duke Sandalj Hranić, from 1435 by Bosnian duke Stjepan Vukčić, followed by the Bosnian King Stjepan Tomaš. The Neretva Valley brought goods in and from Bosnia, including salt, livestock products and metal products. The famous Bosnian slave market,known from the 11th century, was also located here. Thus, in 1080, a slave named Marco, the son of Radoslaw from Neretvawas sold in Drijeva.[6] At the auction there was a customs building, salt warehouses. The Church ofSt. Vitus in Driev was first mentioned in 1405 (Latin language: san Vido, Sancto Vido in Narente). Bishop Lysych, who visited these lands in 1668 and 1670, reports that the church of St. Vita is stone and in ruins. At present, the village, which is located in Croatia (4 km from the site of the ancient city of Narona), has the church of St. Vita, built on the site of a medieval church. In Driev there was also a less popular church of St. Mary, which is mentioned in 1434 and 1443. In 1448, the Turks burned Driev's trade. In 1452, the Venetians founded a new settlement on the opposite bank of Neretva. The first to point to the modern village of Gabela as the location of medieval Drijeva was K. Irechek. Inthepast, the Neretva River was a little to the west.[7][8]
