Dolina ({{IPA|sl|dɔˈliːna|pron}}) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Kamnik in central Slovenia. It is now part of the village of Špitalič.{{cite book |last1=Kosi |first1=Miha |last2=Bizjak |first2=Matjaž |last3=Seručnik |first3=Miha |last4=Šilc |first4=Jurij |title=Historična topografija Kranjske (do 1500) |date=2016 |publisher=Založba ZRC |location=Ljubljana |page=196}} The area is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.

Geography

Dolina lies below the southeast slope of Glisnik Hill (elevation: {{convert|714|m|sp=us|disp=or}}), about {{convert|400|m|sp=us}} north of the main road through Špitalič in the valley of Motnišnica Creek.

Name

Dolina was attested in historical sources as Tal and Tall in 1360, and Klaintall in 1488.{{cite journal |last1=Mlinarič |first1=Jože |title=Posest vetrinjskega samostana na Kranjskem (od leta 1147 do XVII. stoletja) |journal=Zgodovinski časopis |date=1981 |volume=35 |issue=1-2 |page=116}} The name Dolina is a common toponym in Slovenia as well as other Slavic countries{{cite book |last1=Snoj |first1=Marko |title=Etimološki slovar slovenskih zemljepisnih imen |date=2009 |publisher=Modrijan |location=Ljubljana |page=117}} (cf. villages named Dolina in Bulgaria, Poland, and Russia). The name is derived from the common noun dolina 'valley', referring to the local topography.

History

Dolina was annexed by Bela in 1952, ending its existence as an independent settlement.{{cite book |last1=Marinković |first1=Dragan |title=Abecedni spisak naselja u SFRJ.
