The capital city was Stobi2, and most of the Roman province is today contained within the Republic of Macedonia (fig. 1). Geographically, Macedonia II may be described as landlocked highlands in the centre of the Balkan Peninsula. Her ancient marbles, quarries and workshops have as yet received little atten- tion, but whilst Macedonia was part of Yugoslavia, some beautiful Late Antique carvings from the Episcopal Basilica at Stobi were brought to Belgrade, where they are now kept at the National Museum. The latter has been closed since 2003, but some capitals from Stobi were exhibited at Bonn in 2010, where they attracted our attention. We followed their trail, first to Serbia later in 2010 and then to Macedonia in 2011. Thanks to the kind support of various colleagues 1 Babamova 2005, 24–27; Popović 2010, 232–234 (bibliography). in both countries we were able to sample the carvings, identify a matching 2 Wiseman 1984a. quarry at Sivec in central Macedonia and add a major piece to the puzzle of 3 In Serbia Vujadin Ivanišević from the Late Antique stonemasonry3.

However, any renewal results in major morphological, physiognomic, functional or social changes, which imply changes in the meanings encoded in space. These transformations are not always welcome and they may lead to public discussions and conflicts. Skopje 2014 is a project within which such controversial transformations have been taking place. The area surrounding the Vardar River and its banks plays a major role here. On the river banks monumental buildings were erected, bridges over the river were modernised and new ones, decorated with monuments, were built for pedestrians. Bridges can be considered a valuable component of any urban infrastructure as they link different parts of a settlement unit (in the case of Skopje – left (northern) bank and the right (southern) bank; Albanian and Macedonian), improve transport, facilitate trade and cultural exchange. In this context, referring to Lotman’s semiosphere theory, they may become borders of semiotic space, which acts as a filter that facilitates the penetration of codes and cultural texts. Yet, in multicultural Skopje meanings attached to bridges seem to lead to social inequalities as they glorify what is Macedonian and degrade the Albanian element.

  • Ruth E. Kolarik
    Ni{ i Vizantija X 105 Ruth E. Kolarik SEASONAL ANIMALS IN THE NARTHEX MOSAIC OF THE LARGE BASILICA, HERACLEA LYNCESTIS The extraordinary floor mosaic in the narthex of the Large Basilica at Heraclea Lyncestis, near Bitola in Macedonia is unique not only for its artistic quality, but also for its subtle imagery (Fig. 1, 2).1 The mosaic was discovered and extensively published by Gordana Tomašević who saw the mosaic as a literal depiction of the cosmos as described by the sixth-century geographer Cosmas Indiceupleustes. She divided the elements of the mosaic into zones: ocean, earth, paradise and highest heaven.2 The mosaic does indeed depict ele- ments of terrestrial creation, earth framed by ocean. The line of trees and ani- mals represents the earth, while the figures in the frame depict sea creatures.3 Its depiction of the earth is unique and specific, however, including trees,4 plants, birds and animals that reference the changing times of the year. This paper con- cerns the seasonal animals.5 The Heraclea mosaic dates to the first half of the sixth century, prob- ably to the 520s or 530s.6 Its frieze-like composition of trees and animals is quite typical of its time. A near-contemporary mosaic from Nikopolis in Epirus, for example, has fauna, mostly birds combined with a line of trees in multiple frames, one of which contains water creatures. Its inscription explains the sub- 1 I would like to thank the organizers of the 2011 Niš and Byzantium Symposium, especially Miša Rakocija for inviting me to submit this article, even though I was unable to attend the conference.

Key words: Heraclea Lyncestis, Pelagonia, Bitola, Prilep, Via Egnatia The Early Christian world on the Balkan Peninsula began to crumble already in the fourth century, with the invasions and migrations of the peoples and tribes. Vizigoths disrupted Balkan urban conditions in 378, the Huns of Atilla ravaged in 447 and Ostrogoths in 479. After the year 500 the disturbing catastrophes included an earthquake in 518, which seriously damaged the urban centers. Then came the Bubonic plague of 541-2, which was a terrible disaster of unprecedented magnitude, and other epidemics and catastrophes, which were recorded in 555, 558, 561, 573, 591 and 599.1 The invasions, epidemics and economic recession badly affected the population and society of the Eastern Roman Empire. Life in Herclea Lynkestis slowly declined. The Episcopal church was rebuilt in the early sixth century when the latest published coins of Justin II are found.

  • Travel Gives You Wings... for GROUPS
    Travel gives you wings... FOR GROUPS : “DISCOVER THE CULTURES OF THE BALKANS “IN 12 DAYS INTRODUCTION During this tour you will discover a very special place in Europe marked by the dominant trade route in the Mediterranean until the 17th century, connecting Europe with Asia Minor. The trade route was already in use by the Celts, then appeared the Greeks, the Romans and finally the Slavs in the 7th century AD. This parade of civilizations happened before the eyes of the local population, the Illyrians, a people of shepherds, ancestors of today’s Albanians. This part of Europe was first dominated by Byzantium, then two great powers will fight for supremacy: Republics of Venice and Dubrovnik. Division of the Roman Empire was the event that marked the cultures. The border between the Eastern and Western Roman Empire goes through the Balkans. This separation will finally cause the schism in the Middle Age between the Catholic and Orthodox Church. The Ottoman Empire will enhance this cultural melting pot and create a colourful mosaic of local identities. The Balkans thus saw the appearance of various religious movements such as the Church of Bosnia called “Bogumil Church” or the Greek Catholic Church. The Balkans are determined by a surprising climate of tolerance and very original political systems. This tour’s goal is to emphasize this usually hidden side of South East Europe. The 20th century was marked by the nation-state creation games. Differences were weaponized in order to justify political struggles which inevitably led to great confusion. This was fertile ground for Tito's socialism seen as a gluing element which would restore the bygone harmony.

  • Fountain-Of-Life Mosaics from Macedonia Ruth Kolarik the Fountain of Life Is the Most Common Figural Subject Among the Mosaics O
    Fountain-of-Life Mosaics from Macedonia Ruth Kolarik The fountain of life is the most common figural subject among the mosaics of Greek Macedonia, FJR of Macedonia and neighboring regions during the later fifth and first half of the sixth century. The pavements vary in quality, style and details of imagery. The sheer number of examples, however, makes it possible to compare them and assess the activity of various workshops in the region, their evolution and influences. The fountain of life compositions illustrate the words of Psalm 42, part of the baptismal liturgy, and are often appropriately located in baptisteries and associated rooms. Others occupy a variety of ecclesiastical and residential contexts. Two examples stand out in quality and complexity. The mosaic of the Ohrid Tetraconch's baptistery has varied images of the fountain of life combined with personifications of the rivers of paradise It does not have local parallels in quality or style. Another singular example is the central motif of the narthex mosaic in the Large Basilica at Heraclea Lyncestis featuring a vessel with vines set on acanthus leaves and flanked by a stag and a doe, as well as a pair of peacocks. The elaborate compositions, the quality of workmanship and the use of a great variety of materials, including glass, in these two examples suggest that they were laid by two separate workshops from cosmopolitan centers and/or were the work of wall mosaicists. A workshop centered at Stobi was responsible for the fountain of life mosaics in the Baptistery and House of Psalms there as well as an example at Edessa in northern Greece.
