Tomaševo

During the early 20th century, Šahovići was the administrative centre of the kaza of Kolašin. Demographic data compiled by Bulgarian foreign ministry in 1901-02 reported that Šahovići was populated by 25 Albanian households.^[1]

Šahovići was the site of the 1924 Šahovići massacre, in which around 600-900 local Muslims were massacred by Montenegrin peasants under the pretext that local outlaws murdered the chief of Kolašin county, Boško Bošković. These accusations later turned out to be untrue,^[2] as after the events of the massacre, it emerged that the murderers of Bošković were clan members from Rovca, a rival tribe to his own.^[3]

According to the 2003 census, the village had a population of 282 people.^[4] The village was formerly known as Šahovići (Шаховићи), until 1952.

According to the 2011 census, its population was 243.^[5]
