Summary/Abstract: Jiu Valley and Haţeg Country are two of the depressions of the Southern part of Transylvania close to one another and very similar from the geological point of view. A lasting social and economic bound will be the result of this reality. We undertake to emphasize through the present study the fact that there are elements of common history of the two regions, and the nobles of Haţeg Country owned lands in Jiu Valley starting with the 15th century and up to the beginning of the Modern Age. This aspect will favour the first stage of the process of population in Jiu Valley in the 16th-18th centuries, and determine the increase in the number of population and the forming of most of the present-day existing settlements.
