Ostren i Vogël ( Bulgarian: Мало Острени/Malo Ostreni, Macedonian: Мало Острени/Malo Ostreni) is a village in the former Ostren Municipality in Dibër County in northeastern Albania. At the 2015 local government reform it became part of the municipality Bulqizë. [1] It is situated within the Gollobordë region.
Ostren i Vogël (Mali Ostrani) appears in the Ottoman defter of 1467 as a village in the timar of Karaca in the vilayet of Dulgoberda. The settlement had a total of seven households and the anthroponymy recorded attests to a mixed Albanian-Slavic character, with a slight predominance of Albanian personal names and patronyms (e.g., Kallam son of Gjergji, Nikolla son of Pelgrini). A certain Leka from Ohrid appears as among the household heads: Gjuro Luknisha, Mihoja son of Andrija, Gjureci son of Mihoja, Kallam son of Gjergji, Nikolla son of Pelgrini, Leka from Ohrid, and Gjureci son of Meksha. [2]
In an 1878 report, reflecting 1873 statistics, Ostren i Vogël was recorded as having 90 households with 155 Slavic Muslims ( Pomaks) and 103 Bulgarian Christians. [3]
According to statistics gathered by Vasil Kanchov in 1900, the village of Ostren i Vogël was inhabited by 78 Christian Bulgarians and 400 Muslim Bulgarians. However, Kanchov noted that the inhabitants of the village preferred to be called Albanians and that they spoke Albanian. [4]
The "La Macédoine et sa Population Chrétienne" survey by Dimitar Mishev concluded that the Christian population in Malo-Ostreni in 1905 was composed of 120 Bulgarian Exarchists. [5]
The village of Ostren i Vogël is inhabited by an Albanian population which dominates demographically in the village. [6] Other inhabitants of Ostren i Vogël are speakers of a Eastern South Slavic language, [7] of whom in the village traditionally consist of a mixed Slavic Orthodox Christian ( Macedonian) and Muslim (Torbeš) population.
