Lekë Dushmani was an Albanian nobleman and a lord of the League of Lezhë.
Life
A member of the Dushmani family he ruled over the region of Zadrima, in modern Shkodër District. In Venetian documents he is also mentioned along with his relative Damian as lord of Pult in 1446.[1] In March 2, 1444 he became a founding member of the League of Lezhë.[2] Dushmani's daughter Irene was the cause of a feud between Lekë Dukagjini and Lekë Zaharia, whose death in 1447 led to the Albanian-Venetian war. His descendants include among others Sofoklis and Viktor Dousmanis.[3]
