Abstract

Distribution of surnames in 13 areas of the Rostov region with an aggregate number of adult population of 410,000 is analysed. Parameters of Barrai were estimated (random izonimy Ir, index of migrations n, an indicator of a variety of surnames a, entropy Н and redundancy of distribution of surnames R) for populations of a rank «area»; schemes of family landscapes were made, and dendrogramm based on a matrix of family distances for 13 areas was constructed. It is shown that the influence of physical distances on interpopulation relations in the Rostov region is non-significant.
