Drosaico
Drosaico was a leader of the South Slav Narentans in southern Dalmatia around 839.
Drosaico was known as iudex Marianorum ( leader of the Marians ) when the Doge of the Republic of Venice Pietro Tradonico went to the Narentans around 839 to make peace with them. These had significantly impaired the seafaring on the trade routes of the Venetians through piracy.
