Abstract
The village of Zvoneća (Kastav region) has a long history. The novel „Zvoneća svojni“, written by Franjo Matetić in the original Čakavian idiom, was published in 1999. This work also represents an impetus for research on three original le xemes: the toponym Zvōnẽćā, the patronymic Kīnkȇla and the phytonym jārbȏla. Linguistic analysis in concordance with the historical data have confirmed Croatian indigenous identity in the Kvarner hinterland and in the context of the ancient province of Dalmatia.
