Re: Podgogence uredi

It is most probable that names Podgrad, Podgogence (Turkish sources), Pogdugindzsa (Hungarian source) direct to the same historic city of Podgorač.

In the article History of Podgorač you can read the first sentence of section First mention of Podgorač:

  • In its history, Podgorač was first mentioned in 1299. Probably it is older since it was drawn on map in that year as an important place. It is mentioned under different names as Pagaraach (1299), Posesio seu villa Pogorach (posession with castle), Pagarach (1311), Podgorach (1396.), Pogoraach (1407.), Poygoracz (castellanus de Poygoracz, 1467.), Podgoratz (početkom XVIII. st.). (...) Podgorač fell under Ottoman rule in 1532, six year before the fall of Osijek. Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent after conquering Osijek went up the Drava river to Kisek and Maribor. From there he returned through Koprivnica and Virovitica back through Podravina and in that campaign he took Podgorač. Našice and Podgorač posessions Sultan gave to his Grand Vizier Ibrahim.

You can see Podgorač has many name variants in its history. Podgrad, Podgogence, Pogdugindzsa sound all similar to above-mentioned names. I bet they are slightly different pronounced forms of the same place name – Podgorač. Cheers! --Conquistador (razgovor) 16:40, 8. siječnja 2014. (CET)Odgovor
