    11 BUILDING BRIDGES. an INTRODUCTION Lucia Alberti I

    BUILDING BRIDGES. AN INTRODUCTION Lucia Alberti CNR - Istituto di Scienze del Patrimonio Culturale (ISPC) [email protected] I ponti gli piacevano, uniscono separazioni, come una stretta di mano unisce due persone. I ponti cuciono strappi, annullano vuoti, avvicinano lontananze. Mauro Corona, La casa dei sette ponti, Milano, 20121 This volume marks the first in a new monographic series, Bridges, whose aim is to publish the results of the bilateral projects the National Research Council of Italy under- takes with various foreign scientific institutions. The series can be further organized into differing sub-sections, related to the countries involved. The present publication – the first volume in theBridges: Italy Montenegro series – gives an account of the numerous joint-research projects that since 2015 the CNR has conducted with Montenegrin institutions belonging to the Ministry of Sciences and Ministry of Culture of Montenegro. The main topics are related to cultural heritage studies dealing with matters both physical and intangible, with particular reference to the more innovative methodologies and technologies. Already in an advanced stage of preparation is the second volume in this series. Edited by Carla Sfameni and Tatjana Koprivica, it concerns the history of the Italian involvement in the archaeology of Montenegro from the 19th century to the present day. The history of the CNR participation in Montenegro is very recent. In 2013, a first scientific agreement was signed by the former CNR President, Professor Luigi Nicolais, 1 ‘He liked bridges, they unify separate entities, as a handshake joins two persons. Bridges sew up torn holes, fill in empty gaps, and bring far-off things nearer’.

    Cadmus És Harmonia Illíriában404

    Marjeta Šašel Kos ( L j u b l j a n a ) : Cadmus és Harmonia Illíriában404 Kivonat Valamennyi ismert legenda közül, melyek a Balkán északnyugati részéhez kapcsolódnak, a néphagyo- mányban az egyik legmélyebben gyökerező a thébai héroszpár, Cadmus és Harmonia legendája. A gyer- mekeiket érő különböző csapások után, idős korukban vándoroltak a boiótiai Thébából az encheleus néphez, melynek uralkodói lettek. A szerző összegyűjt minden elérhető forrást, mely fényt vet a legenda utóbbi részére. Nézete szerint Cadmus, Bato és a kadmosziak legendáit, akik megjelennek az encheleu- sok között, elsősorban úgy lehet tekinteni, mint a kisebb-nagyobb népcsoportok erőteljes civilizáló im- pulzusait, akik különböző okokból északra vándoroltak, ahol hozzájárultak a dél-dalmát térség és a makedón határ mentén fekvő területek gyorsabb urbanizációjához (Harpya, Lychnidus, Buthoé, Rhizon és a titokzatos Cylices városok alapítása), és társadalmi fejlődéséhez (a Kadmeus-dinasztia alapítása). I. A Cadmus-legenda nem az egyetlen, amely jelzi a kapcsolatokat a görög világ és az Északnyu- gat-Balkán között. Hasonló kapcsolatokat tükröznek a hüperboreuszokról, a mítikus északi faj- ról szóló legendák, akiknél egy ideig Apolló lakott, mielőtt kultusza megjelent Delphiben, s ahol azután minden tizenkilencedik évben egy bizonyos időt töltött, a tavaszi napéjegyenlőség- től a Plejádok felkeléséig. A hüberboreuszok minden évben drága ajándékokat küldtek követe- ikkel az istenség déloszi szentélyébe, és útjuk nagy részét az Északnyugat-Balkánon keresztül tették meg.

    According to Antique Historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire Or the Federation of Nations Was Founded Around 3660 BC

    Summary DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA According to antique historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire or the federation of nations was founded around 3660 BC. The Scythians started to colonize the Balkans around 1800 BC and this mission ended around 1500 BC. Around 1000 BC the Kimmerian Scythians attacked Italy where they formeded their territories. The oldest Scythian Balkan state was Thracia which was created by the Pedases people around 3500 BC, and the Egyptian sources are also mentioning it as an enemy state around 2000 BC. Around 1600 BC a powerful cen- tral Balkan state was created and its name was Dar- dania. The Egyptian sources of 1452 BC from the period of the reign of Amenophis II and of 1240 from the period of the reign of Ramses II are men- tioning the names of Scythian Balkan nations: the Moesi, the Dardanians, the Thracian Pedases, and the Odrysae people. The Scythian Docleatae belonged to the Parthian Scythians; part of them descended to the Balkans in the second half of the second millennium BC. 649 Vojislav D. Nikčević: DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA They created two cities around 1040 BC: Doclea and Scodra. On the territory of today’s Montenegro the Docleatae founded three cities: Medun, Risinium (Risan) and Budua (Budva). In VII and VI century BC the powerful Kingdom of Pontus of the Aorses created its federal unit in the middle Dalmatia and the Scythian Balkan federation known as the Kingdom of the Danube Scythians ruled by the Scytho-Sarmatian Autariatae. This state-alliance included the Kingdom of Pannonia with its capital Sirmium, the alliance con- sisted of the Veneti and the Liburnians, the Kingdom of Aorses, kingdoms of Dardania and Moesia and the agreed province of two kingdoms – Dacia with Trivalia (Praevaliana, future Praevalitana) as well as Scythia Minor.
