Pass One: handmade links, taken from an index to Juraj Šižgorić.
Places included in the Pleiades Project can also be found as a collection there: Places in Sisgoreus. Thanks to the KML file the Pleiades system produces, there is also a Google Map of Šižgorić's places.
Note that the links in the second column of the following list lead to searches over all texts in CroALa. That way we're building an index not only to Šižgorić, but to Šižgorić's places throughout the collection.

What do we do with fictional places?
What do we do with borderline cases, places which are real and fictional as well? Are there degrees of fictionality?4)
Should we consider all places mentioned in the belles lettres (esp. in neo-Latin literature) actually fictional?
What do we do with rhetorical, not referential, uses of a name (Ignjat Đurđević writes about ”a hundred Romes”)?
What do we do when two places share a name (Delphi in Greece and in the Netherlands)?
What to do with ethnonyms used metonymically (Itali, Italici, Italidae = Italia)? — In Pleiades they are treated as a place name, cf. e. g. the Sauromatae.5)
How to treat adjectives (e. g. Patavina, which can collocate with urbs, but not necessarily)?
What, if anything, does the number of occurrences imply?
