Macedonian and Slavic Placenames in Greece and Albania

[Soldier of Macedon]

This can be a work in progress which I will update throughout the weeks and days, it was initiated by my self and largely brought close to completion by our member VMRO. I will also include the Albanian section of the topic eventually.

Any Greeks or Albanians who who visit this forum and wish to dispute the Slavic nature of these placenames can feel free to give their opinion. Included here will be Slavic placenames, and placenames of a Slavic nature which have been 'mutated' or formed into a hybrid consisting of Greek and Albanian words also, for afterall, it demonstrates clear Slavic influence.

As we are already aware, hundreds if not thousands of Slavic placenames have been eradicated in these two states since their formation, replaced with either new creations in their own respective tongues or with a revived ancient names which had not been used by locals in the region for centuries.

Zdravo Makedonin, dobro dojde, fala mnogu za kartava!

[toothpaste]

So i guess slavic toponyms in Southern Greece mean that Slavic migration really happened...Isn't?

Or was there an ancient Macedonian migration to Peloponnese ?

Either way, what would that make you?

[toothpaste]

Not quiet inspired answer to a logical dead end.

[Soldier of Macedon]

Toothpaste, what would that make you? A Hellenized Slav?

[makedonin]

Zdravo Makedonin, dobro dojde, fala mnogu za kartava!

thanx daskalot

[Toska]

Not quiet inspired answer to a logical dead end.

it even justifies the fact that no slavic migration took place, that those are the indiginous and original names.

[Risto the Great]

Oh don't worry about it big guy. A few Slavs made it there and left hundreds of slavic placenames. Doesn't mean much. It probably happened overnight (It certainly did in Macedonia when Uncle Metaxas had a conniption).

But why oh why can't we see any remnants of the Frankish rule in Morea? Maybe you liked the slavic names so much more that you hung onto them.

Any ideas?

Where is Notre Dame (I mean Notrodamopoulou) ?

quick! run and hide

Well, I must admit, this is a first ... I am quoting myself.
But seriously, either the slavs of Morea were fiercely abundant or the native tribes had a deep knowledge of these people. The Franks left nothing behind and they were definitely ruling the region. The Albanians left a few place names and it is well documented they were a transplanted race. Does anyone get the impression the significance of our Southern Slavic brothers in Morea has been downplayed somewhat?

It s better to stay silent when u re ignorant.
Of course there are frankish place names in Peloponnese ,but as it is reasonable Crusaders that migrated Greece where really few.

There are many slavic place names ,but incomparable to the vast majority which is Greek.

On the other hand ,....how many are slavic place names in RoM?
And why the OLDEST place names are NOT slavic???
(Scupi ,Stovi ,Heraclea ,Monastiri )

[Risto the Great]

Can you help me with the Frankish place names please?

I wold expect many more Greek sounding place names. I have seen what happened in Southern Macedonia (Greece now). So expect the same thing would have happened further South.

Places like Lampiri,Salona or Santorini.

Now will u answer my question ?
