Their original name, in Italian, was Binciola, which was also spelled Binçola, Binzola, Biniciola, Bensiola and Buccignola.[2] In modern Croatian, it has been transcribed as Binčola, and Slavicized into Binčulić.[3]

History

They hailed from Cavtat in modern-day Croatia, then known as Epidaurum.[4] They were among the eleven smallest houses in the 15th century.[5] In the beginning of the 15th century Ragusan nobility were present in Novo Brdo as merchants or mining lords; Binçola were also present.[6] Serafim Radi enumerated the noble families that lived in Ragusa in 1588, including the Binciolla.[7]
