History

Teranci has two archaeological sites: Gradište, from Late Antiquity, and Teranci, from the Roman-era.^[1]

One of the neighborhoods of the village bears the name Arbanaško Maalo, meaning Albanian neighborhood, which suggests either direct linguistic contact with Albanians or the former presence of an assimilated Albanian community.^[2]

Per Vasil Kanchov, Teranci was composed of 375 Muslim Turks and 20 Bulgarian Exarchists in 1900.^[3] In 1905, Dimitar Mishev recorded 32 Bulgarian Exarchists.^[4]
