"Going by the upper road, across the broad field of Godomir, past the glorious church of Resava, made illustrious by the tombs of kings and princes, having crossed not far off the greater Morava, and having left on the left the fields of Bardilova, one goes by the village of Braničevo (Branicerum) toward Niš, which was (as can be discerned from the ruins) a most beautiful city, and has now sunk to a village, in which Turks and Bulgarians dwell." [Martin Segon] Feliks Petančić, De itineribus in Turciam libellus (translation by Petar Matković) = Petar Matković, "Travels in the Balkan Peninsula in the 16th Century" („Putovanja po Balkanskom poluotoku XVI. vieka“), Rad of the Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts (Rad Jugoslavenske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti), Book XLIX (1879): 103–164: 121.
