Hodidjed was the only known fortification in the area of Vrhbosna in the High Middle Ages.[1] The fort, located at Han Bulog east of Sarajevo, was first taken by the Ottoman Empire between 1428 and 1430, then retaken by Matko Talovac in 1434, and then taken again by Barak Isaković in 1435.[2]
Han Bulog is located at Bulozi, Stari Grad.
