Gllamnik (Albanian definite form: Gllamniku) or Glavnik (Serbian Cyrillic: Главник), is a village in Podujevë municipality.
Gllamnik is primarily inhabited by Albanians, predominantly members of the Krasniqi tribe. The village is divided into several neighborhoods, including Derllupi, Qypolli, and Gjinolli. These families are believed to have settled in the area centuries ago, likely migrating from the Highlands of Gjakova during the period of the Ottoman Empire.
The largest neighborhood in Gllamnik, considered an inner village, is Sekiraqa. This community settled in the area as muhaxhir from the Toplica region following the events of 1877–78.
