Miša Anastasijević

Mihailo "Miša" Anastasijević (Serbian Cyrillic: Миша Анастасијевић; February 24, 1803 – January 27, 1885) was a businessman and the second richest man in Serbia in the 19th century, through his successful salt export from Wallachia and Moldavia and business partnership with Miloš Obrenović I, Prince of Serbia.

He was given the title of "Danube Captain" by Prince Miloš, from whom he also acquired significant commercial benefits.

[5] At the top of his career, Miša Anastasijević employed circa 10,000 workers and had a fleet of 80 ships.

[2] Miša Anastasijević married his daughter Sara (Sarka) to George, a Prince from the ruling Karađorđević family and built the most impressive building in the city (Captain Miša's Mansion), which was supposed to be the new court, although this plan failed.

According to the Romanian newspaper Evenimentul zilei, it is naturally mummified and preserved in a "remarkable" state.
