Juraj Šižgorić, or Georgius Sisgoreus, was a poet and historiographer from Sibenik, Croatia. In 1487 the book De situ Illyriae et civitate Sibenici (On the location of Illyria and the city of Sibenik), a historico- geographical treatise, written by Šižgorić constructed the borders of Illyria in which he starts with Hungary and ends with Macedonia. He also included the first ever catalogue of thirty 'Illyrian' tribes using ethnonyms from classical authors.
The little info we have of this book pertaining to Macedonia is from here - http://www.heraldika.org.mk/eng/oldest.htm - which is only what I have confirmed only using a different source (which does not include "Greece" as the article in heraldika does).
Can anyone please help provide more info? Even images of the front cover?
