Zbornik za narodni život i običaje and the Folklife and Customs Committte Archives' Manuscripts as the Source for the Study of Romany Population History in Croatia from the Late 19th Century to 1941

Summary/Abstract: In this paper I have analysed the archives and published articles on Romany population in Zbornik za narodni život i običaje. At the end of 19th century, the Croatian Academy of Science and Art carried out etnographical research in Croatia, and one of research tasks was to describe the Romany population: their family life, profession, relation towards their families and the rest of society. Many of ethnographic researchers describe Romany people as thieves, swindlers, loafers and immoral persons. Most of the articles were written in first half of the twentieth century and this ethnographic work is important in the analysis of the history of Romany population in Croatia.
