Up to now, the studies consider those deposits as fluvial sediment; meanwhile, the coast line was categorized as of erosional and accumulative type.

Findings are examined through the intergroup communication perspective and relational models of group identification and are interpreted in the wider western Balkan context of the archdiocese of Ohrid. The analysis of sources demonstrates the volatility and pragmatic shifts and adaptations of the anyhow multi- faceted local and regional identity of the fiercely idiosyncratic region of Himarra, as manifested in diverse communication frames.
