History

Village is first mentioned in 1316, when king Stephen Uroš II Milutin of Serbia gifted Ariljača to the Gračanica monastery. Ottoman census from 1455 states that the village had more than 180 Serbian homes and an Orthodox priest.

The village has an old Orthodox church, renovated in 1938.

Until 1988 the village belonged to the municipality of Pristina, when it was included in the newly-formed Kosovo Polje municipality.

Notes
  1. Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008, but Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the 2013 Brussels Agreement. Kosovo is currently recognized as an independent state by 97 out of the 193 United Nations member states. In total, 112 UN member states recognized Kosovo at some point, of which 15 later withdrew their recognition.
