Talk:Klis

Klis was the center of the Ottoman Sanjak of Klis in the Bosnian Villayet. The fortress was the home of the Bosnian Sanjak Beys from the Pintorovic family.

In the 10th century, Split and Klis were very well known as centers of Bogumil religion, the religion of Bosnians in the middle ages prior to the coming of the Ottoman Turks. Bogumils were dislike by Catholics and starting from Pope Bella, there were 4 crusades launched against Bosnia to rid Bosnia of what the Catholics thought of as a heretical religion.

'The Mourning song of Hasan Aga's wife' was a Bosnian tale about a Hasan Aga Arapovic, a Bosnian Aga in the Sanjak of Hlivno that married a Pintorovic woman from the Sanjak of Klis, a bey's daughter. The work was translated by many authors including Goethe, Pushkin, Sir Walter Scott, and firstly by an Italian writer named Fortis.
