Dalmatians

ETHNONYM: Dalmatinci

Settlements

Coastal and island villages are nucleated ( zbijeni ). While those on the coast are adjacent to the sea, island villages are on both the interior and coastal areas. In the hinterland, they are more dispersed ( razbijeni ) and often located on the very fringe of fertile alluvial depressions.
