This is a book of M. EDITH DURHAM Year 1905
Read the book
His European name, ' Albanian ' is said to be connected with the word ' Alp.' He calls himself ' Shkyipetar,' and his land ' Shkyiperia '—that is, ' son of an eagle,' and ' land of the eagle '; nor could a more fitting name be found for the untamed mountain man, with his keen eyes, aquiline nose, and proud bearing.
This is how servs wrote Albanian names like they are servs
Eaving briefly sketched the fate of the fallen peoples, we must now follow the fortunes of Albania. The case of Albania is a strange one. At the time of Kosovo we may say of them, as Herodotus said of the Thracians,to whom they are probably allied, ' Were they either under the government of an individual or united among themselves, their strength would, in my opinion, render them invincible.'
