Haiduc (English spelling)
They were bandits of the Ottoman Empire in Europe, especially in the Balkans. They were called different names in different places, such as hajdú (Hungarian), haiduc (Serbian and Romanian), and kléftis (Greek), but their activity period roughly coincides with the period of Ottoman rule. According to the many legends about hajduks in the Balkans, unable to bear the hardships of life and the brutality of the Turks, they left their villages and retreated to the mountains to form bandit groups (usually around 10 to 80 people).
