- Slavic is the largest linguistic group in Europe, but what are the origins of the Slavic language and people? Where did they come from and how did they come to have such a prominent place in Europe? Looking at ancient history, archaeology, linguistics and genetics we investigate the origins of the Slavic people and how they came to possess the lands they now hold.

I'm Irish and I love these people. They seem familiar to me. No coincidence that Irish and slav people melt together very well.
Why do you think that is?
Yeah, why do you think so?
im serbian and i always felt some kind of special bond with irish and scottish peoples,i dont know why exactly,while i feel hostility towards other west europeans like english germans and french.Might be our connection through celts who lived at balkans in old times

Sending love to all Slavic people around the globe from Macedonia -Bog da gi cuva site Sloveni
I’m glad you’re realizing you’re Slav and not from the Hellenistic era
Be proud who you are!
You mean from north macedonia.because if you are sending greetings from Macedonia then you are not Slavic you are Greek. as you understood in the Balkans you came in the sixth century after Christ while the Greek Macedonians and Alexander the Great died in 323 BC that is at least 800 years before the Slavic tribes came to the Balkans so what do you have to do with Macedonia you are Slavic From a country called north macelonia.
Makedonians are as much slavic as they are Turkic xD - think again
@@elizluv
nobody is saying we are hellenic... we carry the name Macedonia of our country.. the territory we live on.. we are proud slavs but nobody is denying that many different nations went through this territory and left a seed:) in the end every country is a mixture of nations in the past
@@yorgos19681 what do we have to do with Macedonia????? You are brain washed we are macedonians and you are greeks, Greek Macedonians???? what a extreme stupidity!! You start that theory when you realize that Yugoslavia is coming to the end and that a country named Macedonia will appeared. Your politics is making facts there where is no facts at all, you're remaking the history in the way you like to be. Macedonia is small country and there is no interest in the world to hear the true story.
I'm not saying that our ancestors are ancient macedonians, but they are not greek ancestors also. Alexander III the Great was no greek he conquered Greece and ancient greeks went to war against him. 1 more thing if ancient macedonians were greeks why the ancestor of Alexander III the Great, Alexander I of Macedon was known among the greeks as Alexander the Philhellene?? Philhellene = friend of the greeks/helens. If he's a greek why friend of greeks??
And remember this.... you can't say who m I and where I come from, if you want to know ho we are, just ask us and everyone will give you the same answer, we are MACEDONIANS

I hope one day Slavs will unite in a single economic entity such as EU is. Slavic Union. The west can stay sick and perverted, we need to nurture our values and culture.
@@vanjamenadzer Slavs unite is a good idea, but not in the form of EU. But I agree, a unite based at our values is an excellent idee. / I have lived in Tsjechoslowakie in the period of Soviet Unie, I have mine experience with to live in a small country overrule by a large one. Although Russia is not Soviet Unie, is a risico to be to close in the economic vieuw as a small country. But, the EU now is much worse than the years of to be a satelit of SSSR! Have a nice evening!
The Slavs were not the last tribes of Europeans that accepted Christianity. Actually this process began in the VIII century in the south, and by the year 1000 all Slavic rulers were baptized. The last to be christened were Lithuanians, which happened gradually in the XIV century, and was fulfilled by the baptizing of the Grand Duke of Lithuania Jogaila who became the king of Poland and established the Polish Lithuanian Union. The pesants, however resisted christianization in a long time, as was also the case of Celtic and Germanic tribes.
Christianization of Perm started in middle of XV century, ended around XVI century. Some people on a border of Europe and Asia (hanty, mansi) follow their religion to this day. As for Slavic tribes, vyatichi were probably the last to become Christians.
Indeed, it is accurate; nevertheless, during that period, Lithuania had a predominantly Ruthenian population, leading to the presumption that they were baptized by Lithuanian elites, hence not entirely incorrect.
Even later were the Samis. Christianization of Lappland happened between the 1600's and 1900's.
@@avatarion This is actually cool, I haven't think about it but it makes sense. Sami people are really interesting and would love to see more of their culture in mainstream :)
@MyNatureIsh You are confusing the Lithuanian tribes with the Lithuanian realm, which consisted of annexed territories. Lithuania proper was not inhabited by Christian Ruthenians.
Pozdrav svim Slovenima !!

I thought it was so badass that we held hospitality in such high regard that we would throw down with anyone who threatened our guest's safe passage. Made me feel pretty proud of my heritage right there. Thank you for this eye opening history lesson.
It seems to have been an Indo-European tradition too. It was similar among Germanic and Greek people to show hospitality.
In the Norse saga “Thors visit to Jotunheim” Thor and Loki call for hospitality from a farmer and his family who must feed them as honoured guests.
These traditions may go back to before our languages even separated.
To nas je i upropastilo . Pročuo se glas da postoji narod koji je gostoprimljiv , a pored toga i bogat (metal , tkanine , staklo i boje). Tako su u Evropu nagrnuli narodi kojima je u mentalitetu : pljačka , otimanje , razbojništvo .
Kad su se dočepali metalnih sekira i mačeva , kola i zaprega , kasnije su se iz Evrope raširili po celom svetu .
Otimanje , istrebljavanje , robovlasništvo , iskorišćavanje naroda i njihove imovine ; njihovo je glavno zanimanje do danas .
@@greendalf123 Ha! Nice to run into you here, old friend. I think you're right. I also read some time ago that hospitality was a huge deal in ancient arabian days, like before Islam ancient. I can see how it could help avoid military conflicts between neighbors or strangers too. Thanks for clueing me into the Norse view of it, as I have a particular fondness for the old norse myths, especially where Freya is concerned.
One of the possible reasons for this hospitality is that according to legend, the god Perun would often assume the form of a traveler and walk amongst his people to see how they conducted themselves. And if you refused him hospitality, you would be punished or cursed. So people assumed that a traveler might be their top god in disguise and spared no expense in accommodating them.
@@premiumbackgroundmusic Could be, but it's probably due to real life situations. Remember, helping one another was always a positive for a social species.
In Greek myth, there is a story where Zeus goes to a village, expecting hospitality. All the village but the last couple deny him it. In turn, Zeus tells the hospitable couple to flee and not look back, while he floods the village. (at least that's my recollection of the story).
i have mostly germanic ancestry but still carry a very old slavic last name from the 10th century that i’m also very proud of ‼️

My DNA test just came back. My family lore was right. I am slovak! What wonderful timing for this video. Thank you!
Zaloudek sounds Czech to me. Probably some czech DNA in you as well
ehmmm, just saying that dna testing can be faulty and is actually quite inaccurate so I wouldn't take it too seriously before you adapt a whole identity you only perceive from an idealised outside point of view
I am Hungarian, and I also made a DNA test (which is accurate because it showed that one of my third cousin has a DNA match with me), and I have a lot of slavic ancestors. It is known in my family that the largest part of it is from the historical Hungarian Kingdom's northern part (called Felvidék, this territory is nowadays Slovakia), but it was a bit surprising that I have also czech, polish, and a few Eastern-European relations.
I am also Slovak
@@Noone.05 of course sometimes it's accurate but we have to keep in mind that these ancestry testing organisations are business and they aren't 100% correct in most cases. There was an investigation not long ago when a pair of identical twins tested separately from each other at 3 different ancestry testing organisation and in their results came back completely different from each other. So goes to show.
You forgot to mention about the crusades against the Slavs, starting with the Venedian campaign of 1147. Then the pagan Slavs, who lived from the coast of modern Denmark to Prussia and on the Baltic islands, were destroyed or fled or were assimilated by the Germans. No fewer crusaders took part in these campaigns than in the Middle East.
He did not mentioned any history after the teth century, so why should he specifically talk about the crusades?
The Crusades in the North are rarely talked about. I do not understand why. As far as I know, wars have been fought for a couple of centuries. What I can say is that when learning about the Crusades, at least in Serbia, all attention is focused on the Middle East. A big shame.
After being Christianized, They, as it often happens with neophytes, had been almost immeduately involved into Crusades against Balts and Estonians.
The Northern Crusades, in terms of scale, were even larger than those for Jerusalem when considering the sheer number of warriors involved, a fact that is not widely known. Moreover, the atrocities committed by the Germans during the northern crusades served as just a prelude to the subsequent history of the region.
All Slavs were pagan before Christianity.
PROTOSLAV sounds like an ancient powerful myth man. Protoslav...THE PROGENITOR OF ALL SLAVS
Maybe he should return and bring peace between Ukraine and Russia!

Prvoslav is legit name. It means same.
Slavs are unique group. They had linguistic influences from germanics and iranic sarmatians but they were different. Slavs were called in Greek Sklaveni or Venedi. They are mention to live far north . They were tall and well built and looks were greeks were skinny and small comparing to them more tan too. Us Greeks considered them trustworthy and great warriors very brave too and fearless
both sarmatians and germanics are a branch of indo eruopean so we didn't have influence from germanics or sarmatians our languages are just based on one older language hence the similarities
Skinny and small? On the contrary, the Slavs are taller and larger than the Greeks. Northerners are longer than southerners. This is an axiom
@@Anonymous-qj3sf yes greeks are skinny and small but slavs are tall and bulky you look like big gymnastic men and we look tiny geeks

Afterwards, the reconstruction was left in the hands of colonists from the German Empire who made the city independent with their own, so-called German, city rights (1262). The Times (London) reported on 27th October 1945:
"The Polish authorities in Breslau today demolished one of the few remaining German monuments in the city, that of Kaiser Wilhelm I, and announced that the remaining 200,000 Germans still in Breslau would be expelled to Allied-controlled Germany. The new Polish city president, Stanislac Gosniej, declared in a speech before the monument, that 4,000 Germans were being expelled every week and within six months Wroclaw (Breslau) will be the second city of Poland [...] its population replaced by Polish settlers. It remains under Polish occupation.

Minor correction for the use of the word 'slava': As you said, it means glory, but to get the meaning 'glory to', the next word needs the dativ case.
So 'glory to god' is 'slava bogu'. 'Slava boga', on the other hand, means someting like 'glory of god' (in Russian at least).
For 'Glory to Ukraine', it should be 'slava Ukraini' in Ukrainian (in Russian it would be 'slava Ukrainye').
'Slava Ukraina' just means 'Glory Ukraine', which doesn't really mean anything.
Good video!
I was wondering when youd do one on slavs. I found your channel 2 days ago, and lo and behold a slav video. Krasny :)
I appreciate this information. Thank you for sharing it with us.😊
My brother, THIS, is one of the MOST IMPORTANT documentaries for all of us Slavs, or in our language "pre nás Slovanov"! You have no idea. Our history has been actively suppressed, at least here in Slovakia. After all the information collected in this video, I can see why. Our ancestors were hardy, tough and intelligent people, who valued freedom, friendship and family above all. Such cultures are hard to control for any empire or ruling entity. May one day all Slavs unite, stop with the wars among brothers on behalf of the emperors from the West and usher in a new era of Freedom and Prosperity! Sláva Rodu!
I agree completely with you. I remember what German chancellor Otto von Bismarck said once "If you want to get rid of all Slavs try to separate Ukraine from Russia and turn them against each other. The slavs are the only ethnics in Europe who can destroy each other". Considering what happen in Ukraine just now he was right. Many of slavic countries hate Russians and are ready to join the West and go to war against them. The biggest haters seems to be Poles and Ukrainians.
Truly appreciated.
Phenomenal video! Learnt so much about the peopling of the Slavic folk that I had no idea about and informs my travels to Serbia and Hungary all the more.
Hungarians aren’t Slavs btw (I mean yes they have partly Slavic dna, but they didn’t maintain a Slavic language or identity. They were overcome by steppe nomads).
@@greendalf123 they sure sent those steppe nomads back to mongolia when they came around later on tho
@@Nefylym Haha facts. Though to be fair they had a lot of help :P
@@greendalf123 I know, I'm Polish, we still say of the Hungarians because of those days that: Braci do szabli i do szklanki, which loosely means, Brothers of the blade and the cup, meaning guys you can fight beside and then go drinking with after :)

Vinca pismo, 10000-6000 BC old, is origin of Slavic writing, 80 % the same as today, oldest writing in the world, Vinca and Lepenski Vir are oldest civilisation in Europe, that where Slavs originated. They spread from there East to Asia and West to Europe. Kljosov genetic research proved this.
Aaaahaha 😅😂😅
Current theory is that Slavs originated somewhere at the border of modern day ukr. and Russia. However I must say, that there's an unspoken history which was known not so long ago. That the city of Great Novgorod, where Rurik established Russia, was originally called "Slovensk" and that original city was built there by Slavs around 5 thousand or so years ago.
This was very nice - No mumbo Jambo about Slaves and Slavs etc.
The Slavic slave trade was mostly practiced by other Slavs , Czechs was in 10th century one of the biggest slave trader Wich was stopped by Adalbert of Prague, so it would be weird because Slavs enslaved other Slavs.
@@holextv5595 Of course there were slaves, no point in arguing about that, but it literally makes zero sense to make Slav into Slave since all this similarity between Sclaveni/Sloveni etc.
@@vizualnihistorie yes I didn't meant that exactly.
Right? It’s so tiring that the west only thinks of that when they think of us. There were hundreds of Slavic tribes, who fought and enslaved one another, as did foreign peoples. Many were sold into slavery, but it’s far from our identity.
@@greendalf123 slavery is all they know of this world, so that is all they choose to see in us

Swamps (until recently) mostly occured in Polesie, which is treated as the plausible cradle of the Slavic People. The other Slavic countries were not swampy, but covered with forests (Poland) or steppes (southern Ukraine).
In the Serbo-Croatian language the word for forest is Šuma (shooma). And the Bohemian Forest in Czech is called Šumava.

In Polish a dog is "pies" while a female dog is "suka" Hence "son of a bitch" is "sukisyn" in Polish.
Eastern Slavic (Russian in particular) has a bunch of non slavic words that exist in parallel with slavic words. Sobaka is aparently Iranian, but pes also exists in Russian. Same thing with loshad (horse) instead of kon'. Loshad (I think) is Mongol or Turkish in origin.

No, definitely not all of us. The rest of us go to Greece.
If you want to see many different Slavs all together come in summer to the Bulgarian Black Sea coast, it’s full of Russians, Ukrainens and Polish people 😀
Being Polish, I have no doubts that "slavs" was based on the word "slowo" which means "word" vs the name for the Germans or "Niemcy" those who can't talk. Additionally Swiatowid (main god of the Slavs) means one who sees (widzi) the world (swiat). That is why he is portrayed looking in four directions.
I am Russian, for me the word "slavs" always associated with "slava" - glory. But I may be mistaken.
Slaveny Vs Slovany.
One would be Glory the other Words.
Most commonly or the Word part that makes any historic sense.
This is the same thing as with Mir which in most Slavic languages simply means peace... In eastern ones, especially Russian, it also means Land... But no one knows why.
Plus Russians are... How to put it. Russian is the least mutually understandable Slavic language by the rest. There are even more similar parties between Ukrainian and Polish than there are between Ukrainian and Russian.
So... Russian is not exactly the best language to pick for deep diving into Slavism and Slavic similarities. (Hence why you also use Germania for Germany rather than Nemci like the rest).
Additionally.
In the old times between the first centuries BC and 500 As, Germanic people's and Slavic peoples lived and inhabited many similar areas with nuclear borders.
To highlight that one Spoke and one didn't speak the same tongue would make far more sense.
Although there is a chance the word Slovo and Slava are of common origin, where the fact that you speak makes you "glorious" and not some military battles.
yes that makes much more sense, since we are called in serbian "sloveni" and the word is called "slovo". who knows whats the truth really, since recorded history about the slavs is not that far spread when it comes to our origin. we do say "nemci" for germans which for us does derive from the word "nem", meaning "mute" or in this case people who are mute.
@@tomasvrabec1845 русский такой же славянский язык как и другие. Может украинский и похож больше на польский, но русский похож больше, например, на белорусский. Да и на украинский с польским тоже похож.
Additionally. Хоть мы и называем Германию Германией, но слово "немцы" у нас тоже есть. Вообще странно по одному слову судить о степени родства языков.

@@noahtylerpritchett2682 I did answer you already but my comment appears to have been deleted maybe thought i was advertising. All i said was i uploaded to some 'other website' and they match with ancient samples. Then you're matched with certain ancient populations. Loads of other features that can gives clues too. Maygars had interactions with the Ostrogoths so definitely plausable.
@@iljajaskin2661 Eastern Goths, yes.

Love the video, love your choice in the music of Adrian Von Ziegler ^_^
I highly recommend watching this in 1.5x speed, I don’t know why but it’s nice. Also, I love your deep dive into Slavic history
Most Czechs (myself included) don't use the new shortened name, Czechia. Instead using longer name: the Czech Republic.
Unless the Czech government has made any further changes, Czechia, is only used for branding purposes, where as, the Czech Republic, is used for government documents and legal correspondence.
Our goverment is a lap dog of the Usa!!
It can easily be imagined that Cucuten > Trypillian people became assimilated by the Yamna neighbours and that they spread as a minority lineage alongside haplogroups R1a and R1b as they advanced toward the Baltic with the Corded Ware expansion. Alternatively, I2-L621 lineages could have lived in relative isolation from the mainstream Proto-Indo-European society somewhere around Ukraine, Poland or Belarus, then as the centuries and millennia passed, would have blended with the predominantly R1a populations around them. The resulting amalgam would have become the ancestors of the Proto-Slavs.
Slavs, then as Sclavenoi were first mentioned in the 8. century.
All this is very interesting and wonderful about the haplogroups of the Trypillian-Cucuteni population. Especially when you consider that 99% of the few known burials are cremations, and DNA cannot be extracted from ashes and coals. What is absolutely certain is that they were not Indo-Europeans and cultural continuity with the subsequent population is not archaeologically confirmed.
@@dittmannrudolfrohr2149 The Slavic tribes of Poland are named after one tribe. However, they are Ethnic Lechs. In many parts of the world they are still called Lechians, [or equivalent].
@@metanoian965 The Slavicized peoples in what is now Poland were named after the Polans.
Germanic "po" means on, at, by
Germanic "lan" means land, plain
There were also the Pomeranians (po+mera), who lived by the sea.
The Silinger in Silesia...
All three were Vandal people.
Chrobry (is derived from the Germanic word “Hrouber” which means robber) made rich booty and kidnapped several thousand people in order to settle them at the border castles. As he retreated, he plundered and burned numerous towns and villages. Before his death in 1025, he was crowned king of his country with the help of the pope for the stolen pagan land, which he Christianized with fire and sword with the brutality of the Middle Ages. Until his grave slab in Posen Cathedral was destroyed in 1422, the inscription could be read: “Regnum Sclavorum, Gothorum sive Polonorum” = Kingship of the Sclavi (pagans), Goths or Polans.

Yep ancestors of macedonian slavs
A BIG like for not forgetting to mention all the slavic nations!! 🙏 Thank you!

Hello brothers
We are so proud to be Slavic. Thank you for the great video. Слава 💙
It's my city on 36:20 ,thank you man ❤💙🤍
God bless the Slavic people. They are the last hope of the world. Eastern Europe is hopefully the future. Peace. No wars. Do not force Slavs to fight sllavs
😂😂😂😂
Well said, no more brother wars.
Slava Rodu vsem slovanum! WE are all brothers and sisters by language, culture , history and struggler for our survival. Keep it that way!!!!!!!
VERY INTERESTING..THANKYOU
Excellent ♥️🙏 I am one of them 🥰 My father also taught me lots about Slavs history. Very strong and unbreakable culture ⭐️
All respect to this video. Slavs are the most underestimated group of people in Europe even though they represent the half of Europe and it's a shame that the world just started to get familiar with them. The most underestimated among them are the Southern Slavs on the Balkans. Even though we - the Southern Slavs are about 50% Slavs and 50% the old Europeans, we are among the first who adopted Christianity. There are many evidences the the first apostles had spreaded Christianity on the Balkans and the early Christians built the first churches there. Constantine The Great - Byzantine (Roman) emperor, born in the city of Niš (Serbia), was the one who made Christianity legal in the empire (4th century) and we can find a number of evidences of early Christianity all around Serbia and other Balkans countries. That's the reason why Serbian medieval kings and rulers were so devoted to faith and many of them became saints after they died. So it is very wrong to look for the roots of Christianity in Russia and or any other East European countries other then Serbia and Bulgaria and claiming how Slavs adopted Christianity later then Western European peoples.
My advice - start making efforts in researching more about the history and pre-history of the Balkans, open your mind and stop listening to the British propaganda. You will be pleasantly surprised and find out that the whole history of Europe and European languages and its secrets lays here - in the Balkans that represents the true cradle of Europe. (The first permanent settlements in Europe, the first metallurgy, the first agriculture, the first alphabet, the first urban planning... many of those before the first known from the Middle East).
They still kowtow to the German superiority. Putin is the best example. They may claim to be proud of their heritage but it all has to go through the Western ears and mouth to be approved for thinking. What a joke.
They dont umderestimate us, they are so scared of us that they are trying to devide us, undermine us, destroy our heritage because they lost/sold out theirs, they have been trying throughout the history many times. But they may never succeed, forgive, never forget!
I wouldn't say underestimated...we were purposefully divided so that we would not be united and powerful! Just imagine if we were united...the most populous group in Europe!

32:55 the Moscow region is mistakenly mentioned, because at that time it had not yet been founded, Moscow did not exist yet. There are also many mentions of Venedi, but the Antes would deserve significant attention if we were talking about such old times.
But exist other cities on that region, slavic north- east migration stars even before mongol invasion, end after became more strong
Moscow as a town has been documented since the 9th century, in chronicles - since the 12th century. Initially, the Moscow region had a mixed population of Slavs and Balts. This can be clearly seen in the names of rivers and reservoirs.

Thank you. My father’s family immigrated from Georgia, Ukraine, and Poland to the US in the early 1900’s. I have wondered often about their ancient origins.
Big thank you from Slovak family 🙏🏻
The root "re" is not lost in the Slavic languages. It exists in West Slavic languages as rządca (the power welding).
Yes, and many many more that start with rz and mean power. What was a soft r' in proto slavic, became rz in Polish.
Rząd- the parlament
Zarząd
Rada- council
Urząd- i don't remember but its very important
I don't know if im making this up but król (king, read like k+'rule') has this royal r thing in it.
Re is RA
voldyka for king ?
When he said Rex and Raj, I instantly thought of Rod. Maybe it lost it's meaning as king and became more of a "forefather", "ancestor" or "leader" of the tribe, thus its meaning today - whole lineage of our ancestors.
@@askarufus7939It seems like Rada came from Germanic rat
The end if your monologue was really strong. Поздрави и почитания от София, България!
Slavonic myths and art images of the old are so badass in a natural way
A superbly beautiful and interesting video. Thank you very much!
Real common Slavic term for "King" is another borrowing from Germanic - "Knyaz", "Knes", etc.,: - cf. Gothic "cyningas"- Protoslavs are believed to pass the period of subjugation to early Gothic state. "Kral" is seemingly a late borrowing, and, more likely, was initially used in the meaning of the "Great Ruler", "the Emperor" (Charlemagne).
What do you know, the early form of kingdoms in Romania were also lead by a Cneaz.
There is no historical evidence for the word knayaz being borrowed. It’s just bad linguistics.
@@gideonros2705 uh oh... so the people, who provide this are bad linguists. Never heard of different "knyaz" ethymology.
@@rumelingecristescu6046 what I know is that early kingdoms of Romania had originated after Slavic migrations and that the amount of Slavic borrowings in Romanian then was way bigger than in modern Romanian (artificial "de-Slavization" of Romanian language had taken place in XIXc). And the period of Slavic - Gothic coexistence predated Slavic migrations and settlements in future Romanian territories. So this borrowing from Gothic had been "re-borrowed" by Latin-speaking population in Carpatian region.
@vadimpm1290 exactly, nobody really knows for sure but it's implied that after the slavic migration the romanian population and especially the language had strong slavic influence. Influence that can be felt even today în the pronunciation of words and many words and expressions.
It's also correct that from early 19th century, the romanians were heavily influenced by the western ideas at that time and was a direct response to the Ottoman and Tsarist empires imposing their own influence.
if you're interested (and have the time since i know its very complex, and not much is written), the origin of Albanians would be a good watch from you!
Just like the rest of the West Balkans you guys are mixed with Romans, Greeks, Illyrians, Slavs and whatever the f Ottomans dragged here with them, and just like the rest of the West Balkans you're delusional with the "we were the first ones" bs (my people included). However, it would be interesting to learn more about you, as I'm more than sure there's a beautiful history and tradition behind the modern day crap we all go through out here. Peace be upon you and yours!
@@lukababic5623 DNA disagrees with you 😂
1. A report of the envoy of the Duke of Milan from 1454 calls Skanderbeg "an Albanian Christian" ("quello Sanderbech...è christiano Albanexe").
2. The Italian humanist and poet Antonio Bonfini Asculano (1427-1502) calls Skanderbeg an "Albanian prince" ("Sandorbegum Albanensem Principem").
3. Even the Venetians never questioned his Albanian origins. In 1464, a Venetian senator angrily said of Skanderbeg, that "we do not trust him at all, because he is Albanian, treacherous and dangerous" ("nuy non si fidamo di luy per niente, perche è Albanese et è traditore et tristo!").
4. In 1464, the Duke of Milan, Francesco Sforza, wrote a letter to Skanderbeg, addressing him with these words: "The excellent and powerful lord, like our dear brother, the Albanian lord Gjergj Kastrioti, called Skanderbeg" . ("Illustri et potenti Domino tanquam fratri nostro carissimo Domino Georgio Castriot aliter Scanderbeg albanesi").
5. In a letter from Giovanni Antonio, the prince of Taranto, on October 31, 1460, at the beginning of the letter he addresses Skanderbeg with these words: "Giovanni Antonio, prince of Taranto, sends greetings to George the Albanian!" ("Ioannes Antonius princeps Tarenti Georgio Albano salutem!"). He goes on to say: "Italian blood is not afraid of the Albanian face!" (nec faciam Albanam timebit Italicus sanguis!") and other such insults to the Albanians.
Likewise Ottoman sources, historians and chroniclers, describe him as being Albanian:
Asikpasazade (1400-1484)
Tursun Beg (1420-1499)
Mehmed Nesri (1450-1520)
Idris Bitlisi (1457-1520)
Ibn Kemal (1468-1534)
Sadeddin Efendi (1536-1599)
Mustafa Ali (1541-1600)
Solakzade (1592-1658) and others, all describe him as being an Albanian (arnavud).
Hoca Sâdeddin Efendi (1536-1599), in his Tacü't-Tevarih, says:
“The Albanian ruler had a handsome son named Iskender, whose bodily figure inspired love, while his attractive face was an expression of his beauty and grace.”
Ibn Kemal, historian of the Turkish court during Skanderbeg’s wars, writes: “The Albanians, these tigers of mountain wars have as their religion rebellion. Even their worst warrior is one of the strongest and bravest on the battlefield, just as if he was a knight on the legendary horse…”
Skanderbeg’s own testimony, however, is stronger than both Western and Ottoman sources combined. So what excatly did he say about himself? Let’s see how he replied to the albanophobe cited above, namely Giovanni Antionio of Taranto who had insulted the Albanian nation:
“Moreover, you scorn our people, and compared the Albanians to sheep, and according to your custom think of us with only insults. It would seem you know nothing of the origins of our race. Our elders were the Epirotes from whence Pyrrhus himself came forth, the might of whom the Romans could barely withstand. Those very Epirotes whom with their weapons set forth and conquered Taranto and much of Italy.
There exists no challenge to their might from the likes of the Tarantines, a species of wet men born only to catch fish.
And since you proclaim Albania as part of Macedonia, you grant also then, our elders as nobles who went as far as India under Alexander the Great, defeating all the people that came before them with great ease.
From those men descend these who you now call sheep. But the nature of things have not changed. Why do your men run away in the faces of sheep?”
@@lukababic5623 According to haplogroups, the Albanians are indeed native in the region unlike Serbs that are Slavic. Albanian haplogroups are Ev13 and J2 mediterranean. Serb haplogroups are I2a and R1a slavic.
