Junik, Kosovo - 1485

[DamCz]

So almost all the villages I have posted so far are in the Gjakova - Junik area of Western Kosovo in 1485 and this area had a significant Albanian population, there are other registers from 16th century that shows a continuity, and there was demographic growth and not from Northern Albania , there are more in this area that had significant Albanian names such as Botushe https://mapcarta.com/13931326 , in fact most of the villages in this area in the 15th century in Junik - Gjakova area of Western Kosovo had Albanian names.

For the area between Gjakova - Prizren also known as the Has region we have registers from 1571 and it was inhabited entirely by Albanians almost going by names:
