Sažetak
Gorski kotar has so far rarely been the subject of comprehensive ethnological and
historical studies. This may be confirmed by the lack of historical sources needed for
the reconstruction of the pre-migration state in the area of Gorski kotar. Furthermore,
historical sources offer not a lot of information on the population of Gorski kotar before
the 13th century, or on settlements or economic and administrative centres. Since this
area had for a very long period been marked by migrations caused by the Ottoman attacks,
literature frequently quotes theses regarding the arrival of new population due
to their flight from the Ottoman power. Thanks to this new arrivals, both the linguistic
and the extra-linguistic portraits of Gorski kotar have permanently changed. This issue
ought to be elucidated using scientific and professional approach. The article quotes
historical data from the existing literature, whilst several previous claims have been
proven wrong by a linguistic study recently conducted in the Ikavian Štokavian part
of Gorski kotar.
