- Abstract
The paper off ers a historical-demographic analysis of the population of the town of Nin according to the census of 1810. The census was conducted during the French rule in Dalmatia in the pre-statistic period, and belongs to the group of historical-demographic statistic analyses, the main features of which are: instantaneousness, comprehensiveness, and individuality. The census established the number of inhabitants. Social structure was analysed based on the predominating structure of various family types: the nobility, the bourgeoisie, the clergy and the common people, for whom migratory directions and the times of settlement were established. Frequent changes in the population of Nin occurred as a consequence of the Turkish-Venetian Wars. As regards the population structure, in the class of the common people, the predominating family type was nuclear, while families belonging to other classes were small in number, as the majority of their members lived outside Nin. In all the analysed classes, an even gender structure was present, whilst according to profession, labourers were predominating; this definitely gave Nin a touch of rustic quality. This general stagnation, which had begun rather early and was primarily of economic nature, caused the loss of administrative, judicial and ecclesiastic institutions. Having completely lost all formal and substantial attributes of an urban settlement, Nin became an unattractive life destination. Th erefore, even the few members of the elite belonging to the nobility, bourgeoisie and church prelates left it.
