Draft:Sekula Gavrilović

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sekula Gavrilović (Serbian Cyrillic: Секула Гавриловић; 1779- c. 1850) was one of the principal participants as a barjaktar (flag bearer)[1] in the Battle of Mišar, and many other armed conflicts with the Turks before, during, and after in Karađorđe's Serbia. He left a memoir that was published during his lifetime.[2]

However, a testimony of the Battle of Mišar that Sekula Gavrilović participated in[3]as a Standard bearer, written during 1810 by Isidor Stojanović, some four years after the battle, while Serbia was independent and under the rule of Karađorđe, it wasn't published until 1848.
