== History == In the 7th century, Slavic tribes settled permanently in the area of the town of Živinice. The medieval territory of Živinice was part of the Bosnian state, the areas of Gostilj, Dramešin and Soli as independent political units that lost those attributes before the arrival of the Ottomans in Bosnia. The settlement of Živinice as an urban location probably originated in the 18th century.
