| Summary: | In the paper around 140 toponyms from Žuljana on the peninsula of Pelješac are analyzed. In the introduction of the paper, a geographical and historical overview is given. Then historical confirmations of family names from Žuljana, which are analyzed from the anthroponomastic viewpoint, are given. A brief description of the speech of Žuljana is given focusing on the accentuation system. In the main part of the paper, the toponymy of Žuljana is analyzed, especially the most prominent toponyms formed by the Dalmatian adjective san(c)tu(s) (historical toponym Sutžulijan as well as Sutivan and Sutnikolica) and toponyms motivated by pre-Christian beliefs (e.g. toponym Tintilini). |
