Dushmani (region)
The clan of Dushmani was one of the northern Albanian tribes, living in North Albania up to 20th century. Edith Durham, the person who visited them in the beginning of 20th century described them as one of the most wilder tribes among Albanians. Origins The term Dushmani may have been recorded in the sixth century by the early Byzantine geographer and scholar Procopius of Caesarea (ca. 500– ca. 565) as Dousmanes who uses this name to refer to a Thracian- Illyrian castle restored by the Emperor Justinian. It occurs with more certainty a millennium later in an Ottoman document as Düşman in 1581, and as Dusimani on the maps of the Venetian cartographer Francesco Maria Coronelli in 1688 and 1691. One is reminded of the Ottoman Turkish (originally ''Persian'') oriental term dushman ‘enemy, foe’, but there does not seem to be any etymological relationship to the word here. Dushmani also occurs as a family name. Edith Durham records a document from 1403 which mentions ‘Goran ...

Dushmani Family
The Dushmani or Dusmani were an Albanian family that ruled parts of Pilot, a historical province within the territory of the eponymous Dushmani tribe from the Dukagjin highlands in northern Albania, during 15th century rule under the Republic of Venice. The name of the Dushmani family and the tribe from which they came is probably the oldest name of an Albanian tribe to be attested historically. Rendered in the form ''Dousmanes'' by Procopius, it was the name of one of the Illyrian-Thracian forts rebuilt by Justinian in the 6th century AD. Its similarity to the name ''Dussus'' may suggest that it was formed like many other names found among Albanians as a composition of two names, Dush (Dussus) and Mani. An ultimate link to Turkish düşman which made its way into Balkan languages after the Middle Ages is not plausible. The oldest generation of the family is mentioned on 2 June 1403 when the Venetian Senate confirmed the three brothers Goranin, Damjan and Nenad the rule over the ...
