Shkodër sprawls across the Mbishkodra plain between the freshwater marshlands of Lake Shkodër and foothills of the Albanian Alps, which are largely formed by limestone and dolomite.

It is strategically located where Lake Shkodër flows out into the Buna River. The Romans annexed the city after the third Illyrian War in 168 BC, when a force of Anicius Gallus defeated Gentius.

  • Church-Mosque” Dispute
    Draft version of article published in Annuario - The Albanian Yearbook of Historical and Anthropological Studies 2013, p. 39-60. By Cecilie Endresen One object, several definitions. The Albanian “church-mosque” dispute In the city of Shkodra, the ceremonial use of the so-called kishë-xhami, the “church- mosque” in the Rozafa castle, has been a thorn in the eye between the Catholic Church and the Muslim Community. Apparently the last chapter in the dispute began around 2005 when the Catholic Church in Shkodra organised a mass in the ruins on Saint Stephen’s Day on 26 December. This provoked some representatives of the Muslim Community. At the same time, individuals described as “Wahhabis”, referring to bearded Muslim men with short trousers whom many associate with “Arab” and “foreign” versions of Islam, have been observed performing dawa in the ruins. So, we are faced with at least two different religious claims to the object, one Catholic and one Muslim. In addition, there is a third position: the Albanian state, represented by the State commission for cults, which currently lists it as one of the 201 most important national “cultural monuments/religious objects” and dubs it “Faltorja (kishë-xhami)”,1 i.e. a “sanctuary” or “prayer chapel”, as well as a “church” and/or “mosque”. With this label, the official definition is at the same time religious, non-religious, Muslim and Christian. The Muslim Community calls it the Sultan Fatihu Mosque, and the Catholic Church, St. Stephen’s Church. In order to emphasise the fact that it is disputed, and that I do not take a stand, I will in the following refer to it by its nickname, the “church-mosque”.

Born in Rome and educated in Italy, Switzerland and England, Gillian is bilingual in Italian, fluent in French and speaks some Spanish. After stepping down as Founder and Director of the BADA Antiques & Fine Art Fair London, Gillian now lives between London and Italy. She is also fascinated with Eastern Europe and has organised and led tours to Macedonia, St. Petersburg, Dresden, Georgia, Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, Morocco, and Italy. As well as studying the history, art and architecture, she enjoys exploring the culture, traditions and local life and getting to know the character of a country. Detailed Itinerary Though finally emerging from decades of isolation, Albania is still one of Europe’s most mysterious countries and remains, as yet, largely undiscovered. This unique tour encompasses not only its remarkable archaeological sites and architectural jewels, but also its spectacular natural beauty, so beloved by Edward Lear and Lord Byron. After visiting the evocative Greco-Roman site of Apollonia, we drive along the beautiful Ionian coastline, via the old town of Himara and Porto Palermo with its small fortress, to Saranda. Here the focus is on Butrint, which is set on a wooded peninsula, and is one of the most important yet little known classical archaeological sites of the Mediterranean.

  • Interventions by the Roman Republic in Illyria 230 – 167 BC
    Interventions by the Roman Republic in Illyria 230 – 167 BC Submitted by Jack James Willoughby, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Classics, September 2018. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… Page 1 of 181 Abstract This thesis aims to determine how and why Rome undertook a series of interventions in Illyria during the period of 230 – 167 BC. The thesis is based on a detailed examination and consideration of the ancient written sources and the subsequent historiography on the subject. The Roman interventions in Illyria during this period have traditionally been treated as a component of wider studies of Roman expansion, although Rome’s involvement in Illyria has recently been examined by Dzino in his 2010 work Illyricum in Roman Politics 229BC-AD68. This work examined the development and integration of Illyricum in Roman political discourse, in which the Roman interventions were a smaller component in the broader study. A study of the Roman interventions in Illyria during the period of 230 – 167 BC has never previously been treated on this scale, nor effectively with a synthesis of the various approaches and pieces of evidence that are now available.

  • ARCH 331 Aegean and Greek Art and Archaeology
    Syllabus College Year in Athens ARCH 331 Aegean and Greek Art and Archaeology © ASCSA Instructor: Angelos Papadopoulos, PhD Office hours: After each class (or by appointment) 1 Syllabus 1. Course description This course is a survey of the art and archaeology of Greece from the Neolithic period (7th millennium BCE) to the end of the Roman period (4th century CE). It is designed to focus on a large selection of works of art and through them to discuss the social, political and economic conditions of the time of their creation. At the same time, other formation processes, such as the environment and the landscape, that forged the societies and polities of the Greek region will be explored. Geographically, the course focuses on mainland Greece, the islands of the Aegean and Crete, although there will be frequent references to the neighbouring lands (Egypt, Anatolia, Cyprus, etc) as the archaeology of Greece cannot be studied outside the wider geographical framework, that is of the central and eastern Mediterranean. In order to study the art and archaeology of Greece, students will familiarise themselves with all available sources of evidence, such as material remains and written documents and will have access to up-to-date bibliography and other references. A crucial part of the course is the opportunity to visit archaeological sites and museums around Athens, in order to allow personal autopsy and critical thinking. This general survey, diachronic yet in-depth, covers all major events and aspects of social life, and provides food for thought on several key questions, hypotheses and theories regarding life and art in ancient times.

A study of the parallel developments of architectural and rhetorical form, supported by previously published archaeological evidence and the well documented history of classical rhetoric, demonstrates that both served to propel democracy and, later, to euphemize the asymmetrical power structures of the Hellenistic and Roman empires. In addition, civic architecture and rhetoric worked in unison following analogous patterns of presentation in civic space. Civic imperial architecture in the agora may be thus understood to function as the stageset and legitimator of imperial political rhetoric in the agora.
