ABSTRACT: This paper is written as an attempt of investigation of the deeper motivation behind the two Illyrian campaigns of the Macedonian ruler Cassander (316 – 297 BC). Theresults of these actions were ephemeral and they are not seen as very important in the modern historiography. They are explained either as a kind of continuation of the traditional policy of the Macedonian kings towards their western neighbors or as an indication of increasingly important role played by the southern Illyrian tribes on the wider Mediterranean scene. This paper interprets these campaigns as a part of a well-planned expansion in the direction of the Adriatic Sea, an attempt that represents a fresh chapter in the history of the Macedonian relations with Illyrian peoples. Although the exact scope and the particulars of his plans are impossible to know now, Cassander’s policy in these parts anticipates similar designs of Philip V, one century later. Failure of these attempts should be explained by wider historical circumstances: more pressing issues were occupied Cassander’s attention and resources. After the initial success, he was not in the position to devote significant forces into defense and control of the occupied areas.

• Snežana FERJANČIĆ, Some notes on the fragment CIL XVI 19 from Stara Palanka, 21-26  DOWNLOAD

Abstract: The collection of the City Museum of Vršac contains a small piece of a military diploma published by H. Nesselhauf in 1936 (CIL XVI 19). Close examination of the fragment has allowed us to propose a slightly different reading and interpretation of the partially preserved text. The inner side contained information on the place on the Capitol, in Rome, where the original document had been exhibited (ara gentis Iuliae). Two partially preserved witness signatures, consisting of their names and origo, are recorded on the outer side. One of them seemingly included additional elements, i. e. the filiation, followed by a tribe. Judging by the mention of the altar of the Julian family, the Stara Palanka fragment should be dated to the time between 68 AD and 71 AD.

Abstract: In the period from the late 18th to the present, a relatively small area of the Crimean peninsula is often found in the focus of geopolitical happenings. It was annexed to the Russian Empire after the Ottoman defeats and the Treaty of Küçük Kaynarca, which officialized the Russian expansion and hegemony over the Black Sea basin. This area of rich history and multi-ethnic composition again came into sharp geopolitical significance during the bloody Crimean War in the mid 19th century. Forced emigration of entire ethnic groups and joining the peninsula to Ukraine, distinguished the epoch of communism. In 2014, the annexation of the Crimea to the Russian Federation represented one of the reasons for new tensions in international relations. The harsh geopolitical rhetoric, economic and political sanctions, saber rattling, distinguishes contemporary global reality and multipolar world that is crystallizing.

ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the influence of political and social changes on language as a means of social communication in Serbia/Yugoslavia within the first few years after the World War II. In addition to the general linguistic changes which were indicating the altered social relations, as well as emphasizing the new values, this paper also discusses the changes that occurred between and within the political and social groups. Special attention is given to the reaction of the Serbian middle class (bourgeoise) members pertaining to the linguistic changes, being themselves “sentenced” to „disappearance“ in the new structure of society and in the times of radical changes. Ultimately, the linguistic changes led to the altered state of consciousness and the creation of new societal identity.

Abstract: The introductory part of this paper is devoted to general historical, social and cultural conditions of the time of establishing of the Roman city of Doclea ( near Podgorica) as well as guidelines for its further study. In the second part, the article deals with Medaur, an Illyrian deity – protector of the ancient Risinium (present-day Risan in Montenegro), known only on the basis of inscription found in a military camp in Lambesis. By analyzing the content of the inscription, this text strives to arrive at the origins of this deity and its iconography. Based on comparative examples, of geographic origins ranging from the region of Thrace to the present-day Tunisia and Algeria, it can be concluded that this was an equestrian figure deity, with conceptual and visual roots dating from the time of Pyrrhus, with particular attention drawn to the fact that his kingdom was in close political and cultural relationship with the Illyrian states in the south-eastern area of Adriatic Sea.

Abstract: Research, documentation and preservation of cultural heritage occupies a central place in the culture of one country and presents evidence of its identity. The ancient sites in Montenegro are numerous, but very poorly preserved and insufficiently archaeologically explored. Unfortunately, none of these sites, including Doclea, are adequately protected or even presented in a modern way, either in their natural environment, nor the abundance of materials in the museums. Good presentation of cultural treasures is increasing revenues and the quality of this experience for tourists encourages the desire to re-visit.
