History
Like
Malësia e Madhe
by the Ottomans as a means to control them (late 17th/early 18th century). At the time of the foundation of several settlements they were Roman Catholics and later converted to Islam, hence in these villages like in Tuzinje, there usually is a Latinsko groblje (Latin cemetery) close to the proper Muslim cemetery used by the villages.
Almost all locals identify themselves as Bosniaks and Muslims (2002 census).[3]
