Why this record matters
“Rekovac” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Rekovac, small and town provides the most credible route into that argument.
Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q3423988. VIAF identifies the subject as 136128752. The Library of Congress control number is n86125871. Authority coordinates are 43.867, 21.133. 2 of 4 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2022, 1929 and 1941.
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.
