Gerzovo (Serbian Cyrillic:ÃÂõÃÂ÷þòþ) is a settlement and local community located in the municipality of MrkonjiàGrad, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Aside from Gerzovo, the eponymous local community also encompasses the settlement of Trnovo.
Gerzovo is located in the southeastern portion of the MrkonjiàGrad Municipality bordering à  ipovo. Gerzovo is situated under a hill and is primarily a field.
This settlement wasn't always named Gerzovo, in the 1528 Ottoman Defter it was labeled as Pr'ovo (ÃÂÃÂàþòþ) or PopoviÃÂi. The Slavic traveler Benedikt Kuripeà ¡iàconcluded in his Book (Travel Writings through Bosnia, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Rumelia;1530) that the settlement's name was Gerzovo. In correlation with Atanastije GrgiÃÂeviàin the description of the Klis Sanjak mentions Sokograd and Gerzovo together. Gerzovo itself is derived from the Duke Gerzelez Alija (Turkish: Gürz Ilyas) whose turbe until recently was located in Gerzovo, on Breà ¡ÃÂiÃÂ, and who died there at the end of the 15th century.
In late May 1463, Mahmud Pasha launched an invasion of Bosnia with 20,000 Soldiers directly heading towards Jajce through Gerzovo, Sokoc, Pecka, Medina, and KljuÃÂ. After the Turkish Conquest of Bosnia, The Nahija of Sokol or The Nahija of Gerzovo was a Nahija formed in 1528 that controlled territory from Pliva to the Sana river. During this time period, the settlement of Pecka and Vrbljani was first mentioned. In the Turkish defters, it is hard to identify the correlation between censuses in that period to now due to name changes. The settlement Gerzovo was named Prhovo (ÃÂÃÂþòþ) while the settlement Pecka was listed as Kozara (ÃÂþ÷ðÃÂð). It can be confirmed that all of the settlements around BaraÃÂi were part of the Sokolac Nahija. During the Nahija of Gerzovo, Sokograd was the administrative center of the Nahija.
In the à ½upa of Gerzovo, Many settlements were inhabited during the Roman Empire. Pecka was (Sarnade) SariÃÂi was (Saritte near à  ipovo) Jezero was (Indenea) and Majdan or Mrkonjiàwas (Balole)
