Sažetak
This paper is based on the linguistic analysis of six, newly found Glagolitic texts from Sali on the island of Dugi otok. The texts were found in 2007, and they were in the possession of a family from Sali. They were bound in a notebook which contained purchase
contracts and last wills and testaments mostly written in Italian.
The six Glagolitic texts analyzed in this work are contracts which document olive purchases, and they were written according to administrative conventions of the time, i.e. besides giving the exact location of olive trees, they also contain the names of witnesses,
the so called "štimaduri", as well as the value of each transaction. Each text follows a certain pattern according to which we can recognize administrative style conventions of that time; however, in one of the texts (T6) a strange shift from the administrative norms of the
time was found, i.e. it contains not only information about olive trees, their sellers and buyers,but it also shows the social status of women in Sali at the end of the 18th century. The greatest value of these texts lies in the fact that they testify about the language of the time in which they were written, which is the base of this work. The discovery of these texts is not only a valuable contribution to the Glagolitic heritage of Sali, but it is also proof which shows that there must be more, still undiscovered, texts like this in Sali, which would further testify to the Glagolitic livelihood of Sali in the past.
