In his capital work, Ljubomir Nenadovic said that the final model of Montenegrin cap, introduced by Petar II Petrovic Njegos, was a variation of the cap from Serb antiquity, worn in Risan, Boka Kotorska. From the time of Petar II Petrovic Njegos, Darevija (black brim) around red cap is a sign of sorrow towards lost Serb Empire while gold threads symbolize Serb suffering under Turkish yoke.
