Sažetak
This research on the basic ethnohistorical and demographic process of the population on Dugi otok island was conducted within the context of the long-term anthropological research of the population structure of Croatia's islands. The analysis was based othe study of origin of 2683 married couples from Dugi otok and carried out using data preserved in the old Registers of Marriages in Sali and Božava. The results show a high level of endogamy and reproductive isolation of the population in all the villages and they also confirm the importance of using historical and demographic sources for researching the shaping of population structures. The other purpose of this paper is to provide insight into Dugi Otok population history, its most important economic branch – fishery, as well as migrations and its demographic fluctuations.
