Batić Mirković was a prominent 15th centuryBosniannobleman and magnate. His father was Bosnian knyaz, Mirko Radojević, the Radojević-Mirković family senior, whom Batić succeeded as a head of the family and Bosnian knyaz after his death, while he also succeeded Radoje Radosalić-Pribinić as Grand Knyaz of Bosnia. He was married to Vukava. Knyaz Batić Mirković can be traced in three places in diplomatic material, on charters as a witness in the period 1405-1420. In June 1405, in Bijela Selišta in Trstivnica, the Bosnian kingTvrtko II Tvrtković issued a charter to the people of Dubrovnik confirming cession of the Slansko littoral, and among the witnesses to this act was Knyaz Batić Mirković. This could mean that his father dead and that he has taken his place. His next mention is from the beginning of March 1419, in charter written in Zvečaj, when the Bosnian kingStjepan Ostojić confirmed pledges to Dubrovnik in the charters of his predecessors. Among the witnesses is Knyaz Batić. The last mention in the diplomatic material is from August 1420. Tvrtko II confirms Sandalj's contract with Dubrovnik, regarding selling of Konavle to the city-republic, in charter written in Podvisoko, and among the witnesses is Knyaz Batić Mirković. The information from the charters show that Batić Mirković was indeed a respectable person, a lord who was among the most important nobles of medieval Bosniaat the beginning of the 15th century. Another piece of important information about Batić Mirković comes from his stećak tombstone. His stećak is preserved in the necropolis of the village of Kopošići, in the municipality of Ilijaš. According to the inscription on his stećak, it is known that his title was in fact the Knyaz of Bosnia and that he was associated with the fortified town of Visoki. The inscription states that he fell ill in Visoko, and that death found him "at Duboko". According to the inscription, the stećak was placed and inscribed by his wife Vukava. The stećak tombstone of Batić Mirković is considered one of the most beautiful among the preserved stećak tombstones. The stećak and the tomb were the subject of numerous looting, devastation and displacement, mostly during the late 19th century. Archaeological excavations were undertaken in 2015. Findings included remains of a fine funerary shroud, made of brocade embroidered with fine threads of gilded silver, covering partly preserved skeletal remains, that could be relevant for further analysis. The place of the stećak tombstone and the tomb of the Bosnian Knyaz Batić Mirković is inclose proximity to the fortified city of Dubrovnik, which, like the surrounding estates in the Misoča river basin, is considered his noble heritage. The medieval necropolis is protected national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina, by the decision of the Commission to Preserve National Monuments of Bosnia and Herzegovina from 2003.
