Povijest arhivskog gradiva
The lower judicial and administrative authorities of the Dubrovnik Republic were organized in two types of administrative units: captaincies and districts. The size of the territory and the number of captaincies and districts changed throughout history according to the needs and discretion of the authorities of the Dubrovnik Republic. There were eleven administrative units in the 18th century: eight districts and three captaincies. Cavtat was joined to the Dubrovnik commune in 1427. The captain in Cavtat also served as a judge and, similar to other local rectors and captains, was not empowered to pass sentences for the most serious crimes.

The fonds has been linked to the archive since its inception. In the times of the Dubrovnik Republic, the books of the fonds were stored at the Chancellery of the captaincy in Cavtat and were, by 1891, transferred to the Rector’s Palace, when the archives were consolidated and were made available to researchers. The archive in the Rector's Palace has been functioning as an independent institution since 1920 and it was dislocated to the Sponza Palace in 1952, where it is still located today.
