Sažetak
The author of this paper endeavours to introduce his readers to the beginnings of the social (national and class-based) gathering of the early Croatian (Dalmatian) immigration in New Zealand. What initially brought Croatian emigrants in that country together was, and remained to be for quite some time, kauri gum, that is, the chain of events that had to do with the rights to the valuable raw material's extraction. In this context it can be claimed with certainty that kauri gum played the most significant role in Croatian settlement of New Zealand from the earliest immigration in the mid-19th century to World War I.
