Sažetak
This paper presents a map-searchable database whose purpose is to enable further in-depth research of a particular city during a specific historical period – Dubrovnik, in the first half of the 15th century. It consists of transcriptions of previously unpublished archival documents that have been transcribed and submitted in full length. These transcriptions can be found in a database in accordance with the location of the building or the space they record. Since contemporary Dubrovnik’s urban tissue differs from its appearance in the first half of the 15th century, a special map was created – representing Dubrovnik at the time – as an introduction to this database. The map is further subdivided into segments and used for web programming, providing a map-searchable database which takes three steps from the map to the text. This database’s potential uses are presented in a case study of the Beccaria, a medieval slaughterhouse and butchers’ shop. Apart from abundant information on its maintenance, usage regulations, and the implementation of these processes, special attention has been given to a deliberation that sheds light on its expansion in 1428. This change was visualized in the form of schematic 3D models, enabling better understanding of the development of the city.
