In 1857, while part of the Kingdom of Dalmatia, it had 164 inhabitants. It was inhabited by Orthodox Serbs. It was formerly part of the Sinj municipality.[when?] During the Croatian War, it was part of Republika Srpska Krajina.
According to the 2011 census, the village had 2 inhabitants. It was uninhabited during the 2002 census. According to the 1991 census the village had 124 inhabitants, with a majority of ethnic Serbs (80.64%), while the rest did not register ethnicity.[3]
Serb returnees have been threatened by a family from neighbouring village Bitelić, who maintain their cattle in Laktac since Operation Oluja.[4][5]
