According to the 1467-68 Ottoman defter, Radišani appears as being inhabited by an Orthodox Albanian population.

The names are: Gjura Arbanas (t.Arnaut), Oliver son of Kolja, Stajo son of Stan-ko, Petro son of Krista, Dosa son of Span, Dan-o his brother, Todor son of Dragush, Nikola Arbanas, Pejo his son, Stepan son of Rajka, Marin his brother, Nikola Kumar.^[1]
