Durrës

Durrës (Durazzo,, historically known as Epidamnos and Dyrrachium, is the second most populous city of the Republic of Albania. The city is the capital of the surrounding Durrës County, one of 12 constituent counties of the country. By air, it is northwest of Sarandë, west of Tirana, south of Shkodër and east of Rome. Located on the Adriatic Sea, it is the country's most ancient and economic and historic center. Founded by Greek colonists from Corinth and Corfu under the name of Epidamnos (Επίδαμνος) around the 7th century BC, the city essentially developed to become significant as it became an integral part of the Roman Empire and its successor the Byzantine Empire. The Via Egnatia, the continuation of the Via Appia, started in the city and led across the interior of the Balkan Peninsula to Constantinople in the east. In the Middle Ages, it was contested between Bulgarian, Venetian and Ottoman dominions. Following the declaration of independence of Albania, the city served as the capital of the Principality of Albania for a short period of time. Subsequently, it was annexed by the Kingdom of Italy and Nazi Germany in the interwar period. Moreover, the city experienced a strong expansion in its demography and economic activity during the Communism in Albania. Durrës is served by the Port of Durrës, one of the largest on the Adriatic Sea, which connects the city to Italy and other neighbouring countries. Its most considerable attraction is the Amphitheatre of Durrës that is included on the tentative list of Albania for designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Once having a capacity for 20,000 people, it is the largest amphitheatre in the Balkan Peninsula.

The Peresadyes are evidently Illyrians; the name is not known elsewhere but the royal name Berisades in Thrace is very close to it. These Peresadyes joined the dynasty... συνεστήσαντο τήν δυναστείαν; cf. LSJ συνίστημι, B. III, which..." over, or with the Enchelii, or the Sesarethi, and were part of the Taulantii group of tribes. About their classification they had been identified as Illyrian tribe, however, recent research has strengthened the possibility that they were Thracians. The name itself is very close to Thracian Berisades (Bηρισάδης), suggesting a possible Thracian origin. The Peresadyes also seem to have had contact with Thracians. Some historians have suggested that they weren't a distinct Illyrian tribe, but a part of the Dardani. They gave birth to what later became the Bardylis dynasty, eventually ruling the Dardanii themselves. Strabo recorded what most likely Hecataeus wrote about them, saying that they joined the dynasty of the Enchelii and the term Sesarethii is used as a synonym for Peresyades, but at the same time for Enchelii by Strabo. They ruled the area of modern Trebeništa near lake Ohrid around the 7th century BC, in Macedonia, but declined heavily by 475 BC.
