Topic: Chronicle of the Priest of Duklja


  
  Duklja   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Duklja in the 9th century, according to [[De administrando imperio]] Duklja (Latin: Doclea or Dioclea, after the town of Dioclea) was a vassal state of Byzantium until it won its independence in 1042, ruled by the Vojislavljevic Dynasty, located in Zeta, or modern Montenegro and northern Albania including the city of Skadar.
Duklja was populated by Christians of the Latin Rite and was initially usually under the suzerainty of the Byzantine Empire or of Bulgaria up to the 11th century when the dukes of Duklja started having noticeable success in their struggle for independence.
Duklja was mostly referenced as the littoral area between the Bay of Kotor and the Skadar Lake, while Zeta refers to the river located inland and is thus the more accurate predecessor of the 19th century Montenegro.

A dead chronicle is one where the author gathers his list of events up to the time of his writing, but does not record further events as they occur.
The term often refers to a book written by a chronicler in the Middle Ages describing historical events in a country, or the lives of a nobleman or a clergyman, although it is also applied to a record of public events.
Various fictional stories have also adopted "chronicle" as part of their title, to give an impression of epic proportion to their stories.

Regardless of the different interpretations, the Croat tribes eventually settled in the area between the Drava river and the Adriatic sea, the western Roman provinces Pannonia and Dalmatia; western Balkans in modern usage.

But by 968, it was violently conquered by the Croatian King Kresimir but it returned to the Serb princes of the House of Vojislavljevic of Zeta by the middle of the 11th century and later to Serb princes of the House of Nemanjic of Raska.
Croatian academics have pointed out that Pagania could have been Croats, but this is not generally accepted since these claims rely on Chronicle of the Priest of Duklja, which has been discredited as unreliable and full of errors.
It is now accepted in most academic circles outside of Croatia that Travunia / Travunja, Zachumlie / Zahumlje, Bosnia / Bosna and Zeta / Duklja were settled with Serb tribes, as it states in De Administrando Imperio.

In 1168, as Serbian Duke, Stefan Nemanja launched an offensive against this Greek Land, besieging and raising numerious cities, except for Kotor which surrendered to him peacefully and where he constructed a Chatteu.
