The village was relatively small with a total of five households which were represented by the following household heads: Pal Balazi, Mihal Divalmi, Andrija Kipota, Gjergj Divalmi, and Gjon Kipota. In the register, a certain Mark Kastrioti from Derjan is attested as a yamak stationed in the village of Shtjaknëz (modern Shqefën).[3]
