They arent but thats another subject. But If any Greek poster specifically claims that a given village that had its population replaced in 1921 or before was always settled by the same population I’d pitch in.

I’ve never insinuated anything about Skenderbeg’s ethnicity. But in the same way since they like throwing around names certain guys should what he read what he was doing in 1439 according to Oliver Schmit. Whole point started when certain posters tried to insinuate Albanian majority trough the...

Yes but stick to the facts Albanian names are quite small minority in the Kosovo drefters. And nicknames, titles, occupations are exclusively in Slavic(Siromah, Sirak, Pop, Kovach, Brato ect ect). Dino similarly like all other linguists and osmanologs inferred which language would be spoken in...

The territory of Kosovo was under Brankovic at that time and its how the turks named the given drefter. You can google it, but i think you already know. What kind of logical fallacy is that exactly ? All settlements under Brankovic were recorded including the few albanian names you find here and...

1. You can't mark whole village as Albanian on the basis of few names out of 20. 2. As Dino points out (Picture 1) beyond just the names, the nicknames (Siromah, Sirak, Brato, Kovach) were not translated(as Monster and Tanjush were kind enough to provide) and would indicate the speaking language...

Again a mix of bunch of wiki articles with no coherent thought. I can do the same. Bogdani even has a statue in Skopje as he is seen as a positive person. But enough digressions. Your original post and thread seems unfounded as Albanian DNA project showed the ancestry of Drenica in their...

Its quite obvious who i mean of. If you have trouble associating with the identity of their heirs that speak their language or ‘dialect’ according to you, thats your problem.

All slavic names with slavic nicknames - Siromah poor which indicates the village was Slavic speaking as Turks didnt “translate” the nicknames. And yet you claim is Albanian same thing repeats in the thread on all posts, amazing.

The title and the whole thread turned nothing more than a projection like rrrjnet claims in the media. I didnt derail anything. in the meantime we have 1000 years of Slav cultural output in Kosovo, Macedonia. The Albanian one is lacking just like EV-13 in Albania. Not to mention the whole...

I care about the truth nothing more and nothing less. You flooded the thread with interpolations. I'd check his translations but i have no doubt that even for Trepcha he'd play arround with names like Gjuro, Gjilka, Berislav...

Just scrolling trough the official registeree of Brankovic Area - Kosovo in 1455 doesn't seem Albanian majority at all lmao. https://dokumen.tips/documents/oblast-brankovica-opsirni-katastarski-popis-iz-1455-godine-56a17e4a34370.html?page=390. Found even village called Macedonian that was...

Do you like to spam every thread you conceive of in multiple directions. But yes Catholic Albanians in Skopje have some deep heritage. Can't really remember the name of the Albanian Priest that found himself in Skopje and also spoked about the demographic shift(muslim albanians moving in)...

Mijaks one of the ethnographic groups of Macedonians that ihnibits Reka region, one of the most westwards groups and is usually claimed by Albanians is one of the most Slavic ones and even the non-slavic input is not Albanian. They are R1a-M458 (56.8%) and R1b-U106 (25%), the sample is low 44...

Yes yes people move arround yet they also leave cultural imprint. My mother’s family - (I2 PH3414 Dinaric North) for example is mentioned in the 13th century - Dechani Chrysobulls.

That Greek guy from Moskopole from where largely Macedonian Vlachs originate from ? :) Yeah I know, he uses Macedonian translations as sources on many of them as he doesn't translate all. He does a great job not sure how it correlates with Albanians from Kosovo and Western Macedonia as they...

Meh there are some biases that he and others try to present on only a certain part of a nation. Kachaks and robbing was quite rampant in that age in more places than one. You can see him attribute the noble parts only for Catholic Albanians meanwhile slamming all the rest, which points to me to...

Check Ibrahim Manzour and other third party commentators of the Ottoman Empire. Converted Albanians were basically the face and backbone of the Ottomans in their neighboring countries and beyond.

Gjergj's recent media campaign looks like a rushed damage control. The ordinary citizen like my albanian barber is even more confused now. What they got out of it is that Illyrians were sort of pan-balkanite groupation and he apparently mentioned "Gothic" heritage(?) also Serbs were mostly...

Monster like iljaz rexha himself you make huge interpolation concerning the Ottoman Records. I've seen your threads. Can't lay a claim to a whole region by selectively choosing one or two names. The complete Ottoman defter of 1455 documents thousands of settlement and names but Iljaz resorts...

Kosovo Serbs have their own dialect and are easily distinguishable from MNE and its known which MNE families were moved after the Balkan Wars before most of them being largely moved back by Communist Yugoslavia.
