Praedenecenti was an early medieval Slavic tribe, mentioned only with that name in the Royal Frankish Annals relating to Frankish-Bulgar relations in 822–824. They lived "in Dacia, adjacent to the Danube near the Bulgarian border". In 824, they are mentioned as having been in conflict with the Bulgars.[1] They secretly met the Frankish emperor at Aachen and requested help regarding Bulgar aggression.[1] The Annals problematically states that their name was the common name of the Obodrites, a tribe which lived much further north near the Baltic Sea; some historians believe Obodrites had migrated to the south.[1][2] According to Pavel Jozef Šafařík[3] and Joachim Lelewel[4] they were the Braničevci (in what is today Serbia). S. Oța believes that they are the same as the Merehani, and put their territory in the Banat.[5] I. Boba connected the tribe with the Merehani, who according to him are south Moravians.[2] Their ethnonym is Slavic.[6][better source needed]
