Donja Pecka
Donja Pecka is a populated place in the municipality of Mrkonjić Grad, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Name There are several legends about the name Pecka. One brick was baked here, hence the name Peck. Secondly, immigrants from the village of the same name in Serbia came here. In the end, the name of this village is associated with respect for St. Petka. Pecka is mentioned in Turkish documents as Kozara. History As early as the third century, the Roman city of Sarnade existed here on the Salona-Servitium road (Bosnian Gradiška), later called the Thurman Road. Sarnada is also associated with the conclusions of the Salonitan Council of 530, where the pastor or archpriest of the parish of Sarnada was a signatory to the conclusions of the council. The parish at that time belonged to the diocese of Sisak.

Coordinates On Wikidata
In geometry, a coordinate system is a system that uses one or more numbers, or coordinates, to uniquely determine the position of the points or other geometric elements on a manifold such as Euclidean space. The order of the coordinates is significant, and they are sometimes identified by their position in an ordered tuple and sometimes by a letter, as in "the ''x''-coordinate". The coordinates are taken to be real numbers in elementary mathematics, but may be complex numbers or elements of a more abstract system such as a commutative ring. The use of a coordinate system allows problems in geometry to be translated into problems about numbers and ''vice versa''; this is the basis of analytic geometry. Common coordinate systems Number line The simplest example of a coordinate system is the identification of points on a line with real numbers using the ''number line''. In this system, an arbitrary point ''O'' (the ''origin'') is chosen on a given line. The coordinate of a poin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
