Sažetak
The Roma population has been living in Croatian areas at the latest since the second half of the
14th century. The authorities in Croatian territories began at the end of the 18th century with
the conscriptions of the Roma population, and they did so in order to understand the position
of the Roma on the basis of these demographic data. Numerous methodological problems in
the Roma census posed a challenge to the Croatian authorities, who sought to improve this
census methodology from the first modern censuses in 1880. The research included an analysis
of the demographic characteristics of the Roma population in the Sisak-Banovina area in
the period 1890 – 1910, primarily their number and spatial distribution, religious structure,
educational structure (literacy) and gender structure.The choice of the period was based on the
availability of archival material from the three censuses conducted in this period, which is part
of archival fund in the Croatian State Archives.
