Rezumat

The purpose of this article is to present the Historical Population Database of Transylvania project as a research tool for historical demography. The project aims to create the first historical population database on the territory of Transylvania (and Romania) and to ensure its operation at optimal parameters, meeting the most advanced international standards in the field: the Intermediate Data Structure (IDS). The longitudinal and cross-sectional analyses – whether targeting communities or micro-areas - have been strongly limited by the major effort of collecting and introducing data in an encrypted form. This barrier has, inevitably, lowered the number of research projects that can represent solid comparative benchmarks, engendering a vicious circle from which escape could only come in individual cases and with notable efforts. The HPDT will largely solve this problem by providing researchers with a vast amount of historical and demographic data. The main project end-product will be the database, containing ca. 350-500,000 individual records. The database is achieved by integrating several micro-regional databases, circumscribed according to specific methodological criteria, and will benefit (starting with 2017) from an online genealogical interface. The information contained in the database will allow further analyses in various scientific and socio-economic fields: social sciences, demography and population statistics, public health and heredity studies, linguistics (onomastics and toponymy).
