	Ancient Macedonian Culture
		Later, from the 6th century B.C., Greek culture was of great influence, followed by Roman culture during the first few decades A.D. All this led to the establishment of new religions and ideological, ethnic and economic movements, which left their traces on the development of art.
		The influence of ancient cultures in Macedonia is beyond doubt, considering the direct contacts of Macedonia with civilizations in Greece and Asia Minor.
		The growing strength of Hellenistic culture on Macedonian territory was disrupted by an invasion of Celts and Dardans in the 3rd and 2nd centuries B.C., as well as by the incorporation of Paeonia into the Lower Macedonian state.

	Macedonia History & Macedonia Culture \| iExplore.com
		An ancient, strategically important and much-contested territory, the historical region known as Macedonia was variously controlled by the Greeks, Romans, Bulgarians, Byzantines, Serbs and Ottoman Turks, who conquered the area in 1371, and kept it until the beginning of the 20th century.
		The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia’s quest for international recognition ran up against objections from Greece, which felt that Skopje’s use of the title ‘Macedonia’ implies a territorial claim against Aegean Macedonia in Greece, given that it corresponds with the northern Greek province of the same name (the ancient name ‘Paeonia’ is preferred in Athens).
		Reconstruction in (Former Yugoslav Republic of) Macedonia is closely linked to a number of factors: the settlement of the territorial dispute with Greece; the cancellation of old debts from the Yugoslav era; and the resolution of the conflict with Albanian nationalists.

	Barbarism and the Erasure of Culture
		Milososki's simple statement captured the essence of the matter: that the destruction of such a historical and cultural treasure as the Leshok Monastery was an act that could only be described as barbaric, a thoughtless, misanthropic destruction of a unique and irreplaceable piece of the common European heritage.
		The purpose of this intimidation and barbarism is both psychological (intended to demoralize and wound the Macedonian people), and tangible: that is, the 'cleansing' of the monastery from the hills of Leshok is a precursor to the ethnic cleansing of the Macedonian people in the area.
		Yet at work here was a subtler form of 'ethnic cleansing'; the erasure of a whole culture, its legacy and its history, which could not possibly have posed a threat to the Taliban.
