The Lack of Interpretation at Fortresses Along the Danube in Serbia
Geographica Timisiensis, vol. 19, nr. 2, 2010 (pp. 185-196) ● THE LACK OF INTERPRETATION AT FORTRESSES ALONG THE DANUBE IN SERBIA Aleksandra STANOJLOVIC, Andjelija IVKOV-DZIGURSKI, Aleksandra DRAGIN University of Novi Sad Abstract. One of the rules in tourism is that visitor demand depends on and is based on attractions. Talking about attraction interpretation necessitates is considering why a visitor at any time would like to visit a place, event or a site. Tourism in heritage sites is a relatively young and immature activity in Serbia, and the interpretation on these sites are lacking. This discussion examines the potential benefits of linking interpretation and heritage sites. Many heritage sites only recently have begun to pay serious attention to the implications of increasing visitor numbers and, that the level of tourism management and interpretation fall short of that appropriate for such important sites. Based on the literature and an exploratory study this paper argues that interpretation is essential to the management of such sites. The research focuses upon a case of Serbian fortresses, namely the observation of several well preserved fortresses along Danube river. It examines the activities and possibilities for visitation and interpretation on these fortresses, as it is considered that these fortresses have the great potential for tourism development. Rezumat. Lipsa de interpretare la cetăŃile din lungul Dunării din Serbia. Una dintre reguli în turism este aceea că cererea vizitatorilor depinde şi se bazează pe atracŃii. Interpretarea acestei reguli are în vedere raspunsul la întrebarea de ce un vizitator doreşte să viziteze intr-un anume moment, un anumit loc. -

Зборник радова, св. LVII, 2009. Collection of the Papers, vol. LVII, 2009 504.45.054:628.3 УДК (497.11) Оригинални научни рад Original scientific article Љиљана Гавриловић Слободан Миладиновић ЗАГАЂЕЊЕ ВОДОТОКА НА ТЕРИТОРИЈИ ОПШТИНЕ СМЕДЕРЕВО И ЊИХОВА ЗАШТИТА Извод: Смедерево, као град са преко 100 000 становника и већим бројем индус- тријских предузећа, има велики проблем отпадних вода, које се углавном без икаквог пречишћавања испуштају у водотоке. Канализационе и загађене воде из индустријске зоне одводе се у Дунав, из смедеревске железаре U.S Steel у реку Раљу, а колектори отпадних вода постали су и Језава, Коњска река, Петријевски и Вучачки поток. Физичко-хемијске и микробиолошке анализе показују да је квалитет њихове воде у великој мери погоршан и да су оне нарочито оптерећене амонијаком, нитратима, фосфатима и јонима тешких метала. Као најважније мере заштите вода треба предузети изградњу савремених канализационих система и градског уређаја за пречишћавање отпадних вода. Кључне речи: квалитет воде, загађење водотока, заштита, општина Смедерево. Abstract: Smederevo, as the town of over 100 000 inhabitants and larger number of industrial enterprises, has the problem of waste waters, drained mainly into the river without any purification. Sewerage and polluted waters of the industrial zone drain into the Danube, waters from the U.S. Steel steelworks from Smederevo drain into the Ralja River, while the Jezava River, the Konjska reka River, the Petrijevski and Vucacki streams have also become the waste water collectors. The physical-chemical and mi- crobiological analyses showed that the quality of these waters became worse, loaded mainly with ammonia, nitrates, phosphates and ions of heavy metals. -
Tectonic Evolution of the European Margin and Neotethys Suture Zone in the Region of Belgrade (Northern Šumadija-Serbia)
WSEAS TRANSACTIONS on ENVIRONMENT and DEVELOPMENT Marinko Toljić Tectonic evolution of the European margin and Neotethys suture zone in the region of Belgrade (Northern Šumadija-Serbia) MARINKO TOLJIĆ Faculty of Mining and Geology University of Belgrade Djušina 7, Belgrade SERBIA [email protected] http://www.rgf.bg.ac.rs/profesor.php?id=190&lang=sr Abstract: - Cretaceous-Paleogene convergence between Adriatic and European tectonic units was followed by formation of basins that was governed by mechanisms associated with long-lived subduction. In the trench developed directly above the subduction zone syn-contractional flysch turbidites were deposited. In addition, facially heterogeneous sediments were deposited in the fore-arc type of basin, which was developed further to the east from the subduction zone. Convergent tectonic regime triggered formation of a sequence of congruent fold and thrust structures. The entire tectonic setting was established in the long-lived compressional strain field, whereby the maximum stress axis was perpendicular to the orientation of convergent system. The subduction had features of orthogonal type subduction. The results of structural and facial studies in the Šumadija region indicated the Bela Reka Fault as the most prominent structure in this tectonic setting. This fault system separated trench turbidites in the footwall and Cretaceous-age fore-arc deposits in the hanging- wall. Key-Words: - Neotethys, suture, convergence, trench, forearc, thrust-fold belt, Šumadija 1 Introduction development of a series of basins characterized by Following the Triassic rifting and Jurassic- facially variable deposition [4], [5].

79 Smederevo Fortress
79 Smederevo Fortress Country or territory: Serbia and Montenegro Republic of Serbia Name of organisation compiling the information: Regional Institute for Monument Protection Smederevo Contact name: Snežana Jejić Email address: [email protected] Name and address of building(s) or site: SMEDEREVO FORTRESS, Smederevo Inventory reference number(s): No 538 (Central Registry of Republic Institute for Monument Protection) Building type(s): Mediaeval fortress (of Byzantine building tradition) Main date(s): 15th century, beginning of the 19th century Current use: Inside the Fortress, there is a city park for recreation. From time to time, it is used as a place for cultural events, concerts and fairs. The immediate surroundings of the Fortress are used as a marina for ships, as a river harbour, and, partly, as a railroad. Significance: During its period of maximum prosperity (i.e. during the first half of the century), the city of Smederevo was one of the most important religious, economic and commercial centres of the region. Thanks to its position and prominence, it became a crossroad between the Balkans and central Europe. Smederevo was the last capital of the Serbian mediaeval state before falling under Turkish power. In the subsequent period, it became the centre of the Turkish sanjak and an Austrian province. From 1805 do 1807, it was the centre of the renovated Serbian state. In the first half of the 15th century, the relics of Saint Luke were stored in the Annunciation Church, within the Fortress. The city was inhabited by a Serbian population and numerous colonies, starting with the merchants from Dubrovnik. -
Health Impact of Ambient Air Pollution in Serbia a CALL to ACTION
Health impact of ambient air pollution in Serbia A CALL TO ACTION РЕПУБЛИКА СРБИJA Министарство заштите животне средине REPUBLIC OF SERBIA Ministry of Environmental Protection Republic of Serbia MINISTRY OF HEALTH Abstract This report, on a comprehensive investigation on the impact of air quality on health in Serbia, assesses the effects of air pollution on health in major cities. The results show that long-term exposure to air pollution leads to premature death for a relevant percentage of the population, and short-term exposure to air pollution increases mortality risk. The investigation collected data on air quality, the population and its health in 2010–2015. Levels of pollutants exceeding the values of the WHO air quality guidelines and the limits set by European Union legislation on air quality were recorded in several Serbian cities. The WHO AirQ+ software was used to calculate the proportion of deaths due to air pollution for the main Serbian cities. The analysis of the national data shows that nearly 3600 premature deaths every year are attributable to exposure to fine particulate matter measuring ≤ 2.5 µm (PM2.5) in 11 studied cities in Serbia. Simulations of progressive reductions in current PM2.5 concentrations point towards major health benefits from improving air quality in the country. The results of this analysis indicate the importance of a reliable monitoring of air quality and the need for interventions to reduce the burden of air pollution in Serbia.

Tourist Valorisation of Medieval Fortresses Along the Danube River
FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Architecture and Civil Engineering Vol. 15, No 3, 2017, pp. 465 - 475 https://doi.org/10.2298/FUACE170205036L TOURIST VALORISATION OF MEDIEVAL FORTRESSES ALONG THE DANUBE RIVER: FROM THE SERBIAN PERSPECTIVE UDC 725.182(497.11) Nikola Lečić1, Petar Mitković2, Božidar Manić3 1Urban Planning Institute of Niš, Serbia 2University of Niš, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Serbia 3Institute of Architecture and Urban & Spatial Planning of Serbia, Belgrade, Serbia Abstract. The aim of the research is to determine the tourist value of the medieval fortresses of Belgrade, Smederevo and Golubac, which are located along the course of the Danube through Serbia, that is, to evaluate tourist attractiveness of all those occurrences, objects and spaces which define the tourist value of this kind of resource and heritage. Relying on the analysis of defined elements of the qualitative-quantitative procedure of tourist valorisation, the paper indicates the causes of a low level of tourist attractiveness and distinctiveness of the analysed monumental complexes, as well as the guidelines and activities which should be undertaken in order to rebuild and organise this kind of cultural heritage. Key words: tourist valorisation, cultural goods, medieval fortresses, the Danube, Serbia. 1. INTRODUCTION The significance and attractiveness of cultural resources of Europe is based on cultural accomplishments from the prehistoric period to the modern age. At the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century, the usage and tourist valorisation of cultural resources have intensified, particularly in Europe, where cultural heritage and identity have become a competitive power in relation to the rest of the world, offering to all European regions, without exception, unique possibilities of social and economic development (Dželebdžić and Marić 2014). -
Southern Hungary and Serbia in Al-Idrisi's Geography
Trivent Publishing Available online at http://trivent-publishing.eu/ Voyages and Travel Accounts in Historiography and Literature, vol. 1 DOI: 10.22618/TP.HMWR.2020VTA1.348.005 Southern Hungary and Serbia in al-Idrisi’s Geography Boris Stojkovski1 The reign of the Norman Sicilian King Roger II (1130-1154) represented a significant rise for the Norman Kingdom. In their foreign policy, the Normans clashed for dominance in the Mediterranean with the Byzantine Empire, whereas internally, an economically stable, ethnically and religiously mixed country was being established. The Norman Kingdom owed its economic rise, above all, to the grain trade. In the time of Roger II and his successors in Sicily, the international trade in agricultural products was highly developed, first of all concerning grain, but also salted meat and commodities. Trading was most frequently done with Tunisia, and the Normans had an international trade treaty with Egypt.2 The kings of Sicily, especially Roger II, supported learned men of Greek or Arab descent. For example, the Greek scholar Eugenio resided on the island and was for some time involved in the Sicilian king’s administration work, while he also translated Ptolemy’s Optics from Arabic into Latin. Therefore, apart from his native Greek, he also spoke Arabic and Latin, the three most important languages in Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Orient at the time.3 Furthermore, also in Sicily, Enrico, named Aristippus after Socrates’ disciple, translated works from Greek into Latin. He translated Plato’s dialogues Meno and Phaedrus.4 1 University of Novi Sad, Serbia. 2 For more details on Norman economy, see an excellent overview by David Abulafia, ’’The crown and the economy under Roger II and his successors,” in Italy, Sicily and the Mediterranean 1100-1400 (London: Variorum, 1987), 1-14. -
Harmful Air Across Serbia
Harmful air across Serbia There were days when the particulate matter which damages the heart and lungs, the so- called PM10 particles, reached levels up to seven times higher than permitted in the village of Radinac next to Smederevo’s Železara steel mill. These are the official data of the Serbian Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) which the Center for Investigative Journalism of Serbia (CINS) obtained by sending FOIA requests, which SEPA plans to publish no sooner than in its air quality report in 2021. The villagers have for years been suspecting that the air in the village is not good, but have no proof because from 2013 to the end of last year SEPA did not monitor pollution in Radinac. Since then, it has been taking samples at a gravimetric station which it then analyzes in a laboratory, so real-time monitoring of how bad the air is, like with automatic stations, is not possible “No one publicizes information,” complains Tomislav Cvijetić from Radinac, who says that no one is doing anything about the pollution even after protests and a petition in Smederevo. The situation is similar at the Carina location, near the center of Smederevo, where bad air was registered on one in three days, on average, in the first nine months of 2020, according to SEPA data. Andrej Šoštarić, the responsible analyst at the Laboratory for Air Quality of the Belgrade City Institute of Public Health, told CINS that it was important for people to know how polluted the air was so that they could adapt their behavior to current conditions: “First and foremost, to know if it is polluted or very polluted, whether they will go for a walk, whether they will go jogging or if they can postpone some of their activities so as to be less exposed to that air.
