      Illyrian dont spread bullshit
      as a name it wasnt used until communist propaganda in Albania
      you cannot find that name in any document or oral ancestry before the 40s.
      Albanins throught history used biblical and islamic names that being said biblical names were sort of adapted to albanian language
      for example you had name
      John-Gjon
      Jacob-Gjokë
      Anton-Ndua/Andon(tosk/orthodox version)
      etc
      Also christian albanians here and there used some authentic albanian names
      Dont bring something up as a fun fact and dont have objective empirical proof that was used
      and i myself am albanian so this is general knowledge of names

    Thank you to the international historians and especially to those of Western Europe and America who tell the true history of the Illyrian peninsula in a neutral way, because the Greek and Serbian states have often tried to manipulate history, of course with the help of Russian politics.
    Half of my village are still called girls and boys with these names: teuta, agron, dardan, alban, ilir, aferdita ,molos,glauk,Gent ,bardyls (bardhyl),etc
    Most of the names of gods and myths known as Greek have a meaning or connection with the Albanian language.
    Even the Greek name- "graeci", in Albanian "women walk" is called a place where women almost dominated and walked barefoot in the mountains and prayed to their god that was Zeus in Albanian Zoti= God.
    the famous tree "Druidi", in Albanian the “tree knows”a tree that knows everything, so a blessed tree.
    Troja this name or this word is still used today in the Albanian language which means land, for example when someone has land for sale you can see us in Kosovo table: "troje ne shitje”= "land for sale"🇦🇱🇽🇰

    Calling Teuta a "pirate queen" is like today, calling the Russian Putin "devil" from the previous president of USA and "very smart guy" from the present president. The illyrians and their kingdom were the lords of the Adriatic and Jonian seas and beyond, but when the Romans started to get rich, powerful and ambitious, they had to justify their actions to attach and ocupay the neibers. That's how it is today and that's how it was before. The winer writes the history.

    I have a suggestion for a topic: the burial of enemy combatants with full military honours. It happens from time to time that a significant opponent (or a less significant one under unusual circumstances) is buried with great respect and incorporating national or religious elements that are not customary to the people performing the duty. Examples that come readily to mind are Manfred von Richthofen, and six crew or the Soviet submarine K-129.

    1:15 -- It was not Rameses II (the Great) of the 19th Dynasty who defeated the Sea Peoples, but a successor who reigned about 100 years later, Rameses III of the 20th Dynasty.

    • @the-chillian
      @the-chillian 5 лет назад

      Rameses the Great was the one who clashed with the Hittites at the pivotal Battle of Kadesh, where both Rameses and Muwatalli claimed victory and which could therefore probably be regarded as a tactical draw. (Rameses' account of the battle contains what is likely a grossly exaggerated account of his personal valor.) It was, however, a strategic Hittite victory since in the long run it forced Egypt to acknowledge Hatti as a co-equal regional power.
      However, by the time Rameses III faced the Sea Peoples, Hatti was gone, an earlier victim of the more general Bronze Age Collapse.

      ​@Rijad Emrulai ​ @ALB-33 Some misconceptions here - it's likely that the vast majority of the Illyrian peoples (as well as Celts, among others in the area) were already latinized by the time the Slavs arrived (the ancestors of the Albanians being one of the only exceptions, remaining isolated from latinization in the mountains of Moesia most likely). Slavicization definitely occurred among some Albanians as well, but chances are that the majority of those slavicized were the already latinized descendants of the Illyrians who probably would have considered themselves Romans at the time. In any case, Albanian language and culture are a treasure of heritage and history - but lets not sink to nationalism or ideas of racial purity. The entire Western Balkans (and parts of Italy) share the heritage of the Illyrians, including modern-day south Slavs (even if it's not our only heritage).
