Ludovicus Cerva Tubero (Serbo-Croatian: Ludovik Crijević Tuberon, Italian: Ludovico Cerva Tuberon, his surname is also written Cervarius; 1459–1527), was a Ragusan historian,[1] known for his historiographic work on the Jagiellon period in Hungary.
At the age of 25, he entered the Benedictine Order and became dedicated to investigating ancient Roman historical works and studying local history.
A part of his work that presents a detailed description of the Ottoman Empire was first published in 1590 in Florence.
[2] Tuberon's chief work Writings on the Present Age (Commentaria temporum suorum) was first published in 1603 and was printed a few times.
The text offers a basic source of the Jagiellon period in the Kingdom of Hungary.
