The ethnogenesis space of the Romanian people knows the most varied landforms: mountain, hills, plains.

In this article, the author capitalized on the information coming from the book “Traditional occupations on the territory of Romania”, vol. 4, by Gheorghe Iordache, and from the Anthroponymic Database of Romania, established at the Onomastic Research Laboratory of the Faculty of Letters, University of Craiova, in 1994.
