Đurađ Crnojević (Serbian Cyrillic: Ђурађ Црноjeвић, Archaic: Гю(р)г Цьрноевыкь; d. 1514) was a ruler of the Principality of Zeta between 1490 and 1496. The son of Ivan Crnojević and Goisava Arianiti he was the founder of the first Serbian printing house.^[1] Crnojević styled himself "Duke of Zeta". He was well known by his great education, knowledge of astronomy, geometry and other sciences.

During his short-term reign he became famous for making efforts to spread the cultural heritage rather than for his political successes. The Ottomans made him leave Zeta in 1496. Although he was removed from the historical scene, his books remained as a great contribution to the Serbian culture. With the help of Hieromonk Makarije he printed five books of importance to the Serbian cultural heritage of both Serbia and the Serb land of Montenegro.
