Cerajë (Albanian definite form: Ceraja) or Ceranja (Serbian Cyrillic: Церања), is a village in the municipality of Leposaviq, in northern Kosovo. It has a population of 150-300, all ethnic Albanians, and is one of three Albanian-inhabited villages in Leposaviq.[2] Another alternative name of the village is Kreshëbardhë (Albanian definite form: Kreshëbardha).
History
