Ana Perinić Lewis
Abstract
The present paper aims at describing the most relevant background data on geomorphological, economic, ethnohistoric
and demographic features of the island of Rab. They show the most important population movements to the island
that affected its population structure. This work, as a part of the holistic anthropological research of morphological,
physiological, genetic and socio-cultural variables which have been carried out on the island of Rab, seeks to identify
both internal and external impulses of change and/or continuity of the island population structure within a wider socio-
-cultural and historical context.
