Popis: Na temelju srednjovjekovnih pisanih izvora poznato je da je na području današnjeg Zagreba postojala cistercitska opatija svetog Jakova na jednom od brojnih savskih otoka koji su s vremenom nestali regulacijom obale i toka Save. Članak se bavi preciznijim smještajem otoka u srednjovjekovnom zagrebačkom krajoliku, odnosno utvrđuje ubikaciju otoka i opatije u današnje zagrebačko naselje Jakuševec.
From the mid-thirteenth century Otok of St James was property of the Cistercian order. The first trace of this settlement in the preserved sources comes from 1217, when it was mentioned, as Insula (i.e. »otok«) within the possession of certain Egidius, in a charter of King Andrew II. Afterwards, in 1257 Peter archdeacon of Zagreb assigned this Egidius’ island (Insula Egidii) to Cistercians. In this charter of donation it is clearly stated that aforementioned Egidius had erected church of St James on the Island (Otok), and that archdeacon Peter later has founded monastery and church dedicated to St Mary. During the second half of the thirteenth century the name Otok became tightly connected with the St James abbey. However, in the fourteenth century Cistercians have relocated the abbey to Zagreb, next to the church of St Mary under Gradec hill (at the site of present-day Dolac market), and Otok of St James from that time is mentioned only as a chapter’s possession. Existing literature mostly locates Otok of St James, together with Sava River crossing of St James, in the western parts of present-day Zagreb. Only Nada Klaić suggested that this possession should be looked for at the site of the present-day settlement Jakuševec. However, she has never proved nor supported her assumption with any fundamental argumentation, and thus her opinion was more or less neglected in the scholarly commu-nity. Still, according to the data from the aforementioned charter of King Andrew II from 1217, it is possible to locate settlements Insula, Perulaca and Craztenica in the eastern parts of present-day Zagreb, somewhere in-between present-day settlements Ščitarjevo and Jakuševec. Namely, this charter describes borders of the aforementioned possessions, and toponym Jakuševec is clearly related to the name James (Jakov). At the end, the author delivers an interesting congruence regarding various elements related to the cult of St James in the local landscape. Namely, if we look from above, it becomes clear that on the slopes of the Medvednica Mountain there are two chapels devoted to St James: one dedicated to St James and another one (at Medvedgrad fort) dedicated to Ss Philipp and James. If one looks further to the east there is settlement Jakuševec with a church dedicated to St James, and on the west there is settlement Jakovlje which was known as »St James settlement« during the Middle Ages. Still, even though these facts are quite indicative, author does not states any decisive conclusion, but suggests further investigations of the cultural landscape.
