The culture of Croatian people is a sum of all material, spiritual and social goods which were accumulated through time. In this paper, an overview is given on a number of genres of oral literature which are characteristic for the region known as Cetinska krajina, but nevertheless the emphasis will be on the area of Sinjska krajina, and not the whole of Cetinska krajina. Eventhough only a part of this large area is included, the richness and diversity of this genres of oral literature are large and interesting. Amongst the many genres, we would like to point out religious poetry and contrasts which are very significant for the whole of this religious region, countless lyric poems and myths that they are laced with, whether they be love poems, reflexive, historical, etc. What else makes the framework of the poetics of Sinjska krajina are ojkavice (male and female) and customs (some of the wedding customs are mentioned in this paper), songs and competition in lyrics (pripivavanje). The best preserved and remembered forms are stories and anecdotes from everyday life and, of course, what contributes a lot to their appeal is how intriguing, authentic and convincing the storyteller is.
