TO TRACE THE THRACIANS
1999
The theme about the Thracians is too boundless. Too many people think that they are nomadic tribes... but if we look in whichever dictionary or encyclopedia for the word NOMAD we can find: wanderer, roamer. Nowadays, the scientists aspire to delete "the white spots" - the lacks - in the humain's history by the archeologie, the paleontologie, the linguistics, the numismatics. In that way, we can retrace the cultural evolution in Balkan - Aegean region and show it to you. And after a look to our entry - reading about the name, the native land, the migration, the social, political and economical relations, the mythologie, the arts etc. of the Thracions - it's up to you to answer the question "Are the Thracians nomadic tribes?"...
