History
editThe village is recorded in the 1467/68 defter, as a timar (land grant) of Hamza Arnauti, Arnaut being a Turkified version for Albanian.[1] During the end of the 17th and beginning of the 18th centuries, Muslims from the Debar area settled in villages in the Skopje area, such as Pagaruša.[2]
Demographics
