Summary by Archive
SummaryThe probate inventory belonging to the possibly janissary-person reveals particularly the commercial amount of goods like flax, animal fat and salt. This janissary owned not only a shop but also a special vessel for the transportation of cereal and salt (borazan). As his shop is also located on the Danubian shore, he seems to have made investments in maritime trade along the river.
