The earliest name for a major ceety in the region o the day's Sarajevo is ''Vrhbosna''. Tae claim housomeivver that Sarajevo an ''Vrhbosna'' are ane an the same wad be faulty, considerin that the latter seems tae hae been destroyed well afore the [[Ottoman Empire|Ottomans]] occupied the region. Rather, the ceety o Sarajevo as we ken it wis built directly on top o the Bosnian village o ''Brodac''.
