They inhabited the Brda (Montenegro) area in central and eastern Montenegro, being centered around the region of Piperi.

Name
The term Magusha means buffalo-calf in Proto-Albanian (modern Albanian, meksh).[2]
History
The Mugosha may have been immigrants from modern Albania, settling in Brda around the 12th and 13th centuries[3]
The name Magusi is mentioned in the 1416-17 Venetian cadaster of Scutari. In it, a Gjergj Magusi is mentioned as living in the village of Shën Auraç, as well as the late Pjetër Magusi leader of an uprising against Venice and former landholder.[4]
The tribal name exists as a surname in Montengro, with people such as Dušan Mugoša, and the Špiro Mugoša Airport, named after the Partisan. Many surname bearers joined the Yugoslav Partisans and the Communists.[5] The oral traditions of the Mugoša connects them to the Kastrioti family of medieval Albania, they maintain that their ancestors arrived from the tribal territory of the Kastrati in Malësia and that they had first settled in Kuči. Legends from Piperi, however, claim that they originally occupied the lands between Radovče and Kopilje prior to being expelled by the incoming Lužani.[6] According to 2006 data, 779 people had the surname in Podgorica; people with the surname are represented above average in local politics service in the capital.[7]

Često je, međutim, to prethodno stanovništvo bilo arbanaškog porekla (Mataruge, Mugoše, Macure, Lužani, Kričci). Ipak, i kod tog starijeg sloja treba pretpostaviti da je reč o doseljenicima iz današnje Albanije. Ima više dokaza da su se u XII XIII veku i kasnije arbanaške stočarske grupe preko Zete doseljavale sve do Neretve.
