Jonima family

The Jonima (Albanian: Gjonima) were a noble Albanian family that held a territory around Lezhë (northern Albania), as vassals of Arbanon, Serbia and Ottoman Empire, active in the 13th to 15th centuries. The Jonima, like most Albanian noble families, were part of a fis or clan. It is also said that they had close ties to the Kastrioti family.
