• U ovome se radu na temelju terenskog istraživanja obrađuje toponimija danas gotovo posve napuštenoga sela Dubljani u Popovu u istočnoj Hercegovini. U mjesnoj su toponimiji najzastupljeniji toponimi antroponimnoga postanja s pomoću kojih se upoznajemo s negdašnjim i današnjim imovinsko-pravnim ustrojem srednjovjekovnog Huma, toponim Satùlija (‘Sanctus Elias’) spomen je na davne romansko-hrvatske dodire, a na primjeru toponima Sačìvišće upoznajemo se s veoma složenom dijalektnom slikom istočne Hercegovine.
• The village Dubljani is situated in the northeastern part of Popovo, which is a very suitable location: it is protected from the northern winds, and due to the dawn-to-dusk exposure to the Sun and gravelly soil it is ideal for wine-growing. It has many pastures, which are necessary for the development of cattle breeding. For these very reasons the members of the middle-age landed nobility Nikolic inhabited Dubljani. After the Turkish conquest of Hercegovina in the 15th century, Popovo found itself in an unfavorable situation since from the granary of Dubrovnik it became an area of frequent battles and robberies. Numerous toponyms of anthroponymic origin remain as traces of the tumultuous and relatively unknown past of this today almost deserted village.
