The House of Sorgo (in Italian) or Sorkočević (in Croatian) was the name of a noble family of the Republic of Ragusa.
Name
[edit]Known as de Sorgo, Surgo, Sorco and Surco in Italian, their name is derived from sorghum.[1]
History
[edit]
According to the Annals, the Sorgo was a grain-trading and ship-owning family who immigrated from Albania via Kotor in 1272, and were ennobled in 1292 after bringing sorghum during a famine.[1] They hailed from the Cape of Rodon (di Redoni d' Albania antichi), according to a later entry in the Annals.[2] However, "Vita de Dobroslavo", the progenitor, is mentioned in 1253, and died before 1281.[3] Vita had seven sons and two daughters.[4] He had a son, Dobrosclavus, who was mentioned between 1274 and 1283, when he died.[3]
In 1527, Vlaho Sorgo, a patrician in Venice, recruited Jacobus Rizo as a doctor against the plague.[5]
