Some Notes on Migrations and Language History

Linguistic data from the early past can provide information on migrations. This paper points out that, like the name Hrvat, traces of the names Duljeb and Lupoglava also survive in the Croatian territories from the early Slavic period. In the dialects of Croatian as well as of Central-South-Slavic we can see traces of earlier dialect divisions within Proto-Slavic, which tells us something about the different regions from which the early settlers came. The settlers brought with them their pre-Christian mythological topography as well.
