Source-derived summary

Kuševac is a village in Croatia. It is connected by the D7 highway.

Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Kuševac” as settlement in the Town of Đakovo, Osijek-Baranja County, Croatia. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Kuševac, settlement and Town.

Editorial reviewA strong orientation record where physical form, institutional use and historical geography need to be read together. The current 13-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Kuševac, settlement and Town providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Kuševac”, the useful work is to connect “settlement in the Town of Đakovo, Osijek-Baranja County, Croatia” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Oct 1, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q3513080. Authority coordinates are 45.350, 18.433. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
