This is history of Novi Sad. ==Early history of Petrovaradin== Human settlement in the territory of present-day Novi Sad has been traced as far back as the Stone Age (about 4500 BC). This settlement was located on the right bank of the river Danube in the territory of present-day Petrovaradin. This region was conquered by Celts (in the 4th century BC) and Romans (in the 1st century BC). The Celts founded the first fortress at this location, which was located on the right bank of the Danube. During Roman rule, a larger fortress was built in the 1st century AD with the name ''Cusum'' and was included into Roman province Pannonia. In the 5th century, Cusum was devastated by the invasion of the Huns. By the end of the 5th century, Byzantines had reconstructed the city and called it by the names ''Cusum'' and ''Petrikon''. The city in time became conquered by the Ostrogoths, Gepids, Avars, Franks, Bulgarians, and again by the Byzantines. The city was later conquered by the Kingdom of Hungary (in the 11th-12th century); by the Ottoman Empire (in 1526), and by the Habsburg Monarchy (in 1687). The city was first mentioned under the name ''Peturwarad'' (''Pétervárad'', Serbian: ''Petrovaradin'') in documents from 1237.〔Borovszky Samu: Magyarország vármegyéi és városai, Bács-Bodrog vármegye I.-II. kötet, Apolló Irodalmi és Nyomdai Részvénytársaság, 1909.〕 Another name used for it was ''Bélakút''. Petrovaradin was known under the name ''Pétervárad'' under Hungarian rule, ''Varadin'' under Ottoman rule, and ''Peterwardein'' under Habsburg rule. During the Ottoman rule, Petrovaradin had 200 houses, and three mosques. There was also a Christian quarter with 35 houses populated with ethnic Serbs.〔Enciklopedija Novog Sada, knjiga 20, Novi Sad, 2002〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「History of Novi Sad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
