Maine, Budva
Maine (Serbian Cyrillic: Маине) is a hamlet in northern Budva, Montenegro, located by the Grđevica river, between Budva and Pobori. It was a small tribe (also called Mainjani) at the border between the Montenegrin Littoral (Primorje) and Old Montenegro in the 17th century, located below the Lovćen between the Stanjević monastery and Budva.[1] In the 17th century, the kadi of Ottoman Montenegro demarcated the borders between Montenegro and the maritime areas, i.e. between Budva and Mainjani.[2] The tribe participated in the Battle of Vrtijeljka (1685).[3] In 1838, the three small knežine of Maine, Pobori and Braići, above Budva, had 1705 inhabitants, all of Orthodox faith.[4] The Podmaine monastery is located in the hamlet; the monastery was the gathering place of the Maine tribe who traditionally held meetings on the feast day of St. George.[5]
