A ground breaking discovery of Marijan Busic which corroborates the fact on the Croatian origin of the word „cravat
Marijan Bušić (BA), a passionate promoter of cravat as a medium and explorer of the history of its development, found new facts which corroborate the Croatian origin of this unique world symbol. On historical map of the Habsburg Monarchy dated in 1697, a part of Slavonski Brod, today the centre of the city - The Square of Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić and the surrounding area – was given name in the German language „Cravatten Statt“. This historical fact, up to now known only to a small number of expert – specialists, is presented and interpreted to the wider public upon the initiative of the non-profit institution Academia Cravatica.
