The House of Babonić (Hungarian: Babonics or Vodicsai) was a noble family from medieval Slavonia whose most notable members were Bans (viceroys) of Slavonia and Croatia. Their rise began at the turn of the 12th and 13th centuries when they received enormous estates from the Kings of Hungary.[1][2][3] They were related to the Counts of Gorizia, the Venetian Morosini family and the Bosnian Kotromanić through intermarriages.[1]
