Sažetak
Following certain introductory remarks about historic Dalmatian towns and the importance of medieval statutes for the study of their urban development, the discussion focuses on the urban landscapes of Split and Dubrovnik and urbanistic norms in their thirteenth and fourteenth century statutes. For both towns the thirteenth century was indeed an epoch of spatial as well as legal consolidation. Economic and population growth led to the increase in their size and the defensive walls were extended in order to encircle the former suburbs. The most common type of dwelling in those areas were wooden houses. The study of the relevant data in the statutes and notary books enables us to determine the historical causes and legal practices that were essential for the prevalence of wooden houses as well as the diverse circumstances that contributed to the process of them being replaced by masonry houses, completed by the beginning of the fifteenth century.
