Kata Koščević

Kata Koščević — also known as Katica — was a member of the House of Koščević of the village called Sveti Matej. She was born on the Koščević Hill as one of the daughters of Stjepan Koščević I and his wife, Milka Koščević.

The brother of Kata was called Dragec Koščević, and he was once in the conflict with his uncle, Valent Koščević. Kataʻs sisters were named Ivka and Agata.

Kata married an unknown man, and bore him son, whom she named Stjepan, after her father.

Etymology
Kata and Katica are forms of the name Katarina, which is a Croatian version of Catherine/Kathryn (Greek: Αἰκατερίνα). The name is maybe related to the name of one goddess, but it is also possible that this name is connected to the word καθαρός = "pure".
