The municipalities in the Republic of Macedonia are eligible to have Coat of Arms. This privilege has been used by small number of municipalities. The Law for local self-governance only mentions the fact that the municipalities may have coat of arms, leaving to the municipalities to interpret the meaning of the term “Coat of arms”. The practice so far has shown that in most of the cases, under term “Arms” is consider whatever emblem that has a form of a shield. Some municipalities went even further, and are using emblems that have nothing to do with arms, even according the loosest definition of “Arms”. Encouraging fact is that municipalities of Karpos and Bitola finally got new arms which are real heraldic arms. It is a pleasure to see municipality of Aracinovo changing the old shield-like emblem, depicting a football ball, with heraldic Coat of Arms. Up till present, municipality of Karpos used the landscape arm of City of Skopje. Now, it has arms which

From the Editor After a long two-year break, the new issue of Macedonian Herald is in front of you. In it we will fulfil promises given in the previous issue: Second part of the text on Miac’s flag and one way of the reading of the applied motifs. Second promise, we will comment on the definition of the Coat of Arms offered by the Encyclopaedia of the Yugoslav Lexicography Department. In this issue you will find new municipal coat of arms which are coming closer to the heraldic practice. A special light is given to the MHS activities between two issues, with emphasis on the international cooperatioon. From this issue we will be taking a closer look on the Macedonian Decorations.

Vo prethodniot broj ja prenes ovme definicijata spred Op{ta Enciklopedija, Jugoslovenski Le ksikorafski Zavod, Zagreb 1977g koja veli deka grbot e: “Potrajna oznaka na oddelni li~nosti, familii, korporacii, politi~ki i crkovni ustanovi, organizacii i dràvi, izrazeni so likovni sredstva po odredeni pravila” Ovaa definicija ni dava pet momenti vo definiraweto na grb: 1. Traen karakter; 2 oznaka na oddelni li~nosti; 3, ima titular odnosno nositel na grbot; 4, izra zeni so likovni sredstva; 5. po odredeni pravila. Dva od ovie momenti, iako se dobliùvaat do opredeluvaweto na grbot, se necelosni. Prvo, tretiot moment, ovde taksativno naveduvawe na mo`nite titulari, fizi~ki i pravni lica, izostava nekolku glavni titulari, odnosno nositeli na grb. Toa se teritori jalni edinici i naseleni mesta, kade pripa|aat i zemskite kako i op{tinskite grbovi, na koi }e im obrneme vnimanie vo ovoj broj na Makedonski Herald. Drug vaèn tituar, ovde izostaven e funkci jata. Odredeni funkcii/pozicii moàt da imaat grb. Tie ne go prestavuvaat onoj koj ja drì taa funkcija, tuku samata funkcija. Vtoro, petiot moment: “po odredeni pravila” naveduva deka ima pravila koi rakovodat so kreiraweto, upotrebata i izmenu vaweto na grbot, no so izostavu vaweto da se spomene deka tokmu heraldi~kite pravila se onie edinstveni koi moàt i smeat da go definiraat grbot, se os tava ogromen prostor za svoevol no tolkuvawe. Dokaz za toa e i na~inot na koj se kreirani golem del od na{ite op{tinski “grbovi” t.e. {titovidni amblemi.

êtvrtiot moment, “izrazeni so likovni sredstva” e isto taka {iroka kategorija koja moèbi i doveduva do zabuna kade grbot se poistovetuva so likovna kom pozicija (kako {to e primer ak varelniot prikaz na ~ar{ijata kako predlogot za grb na op{tina âir). Heraldikata gi pravi grbo vite so elementi i boi, koi moàt strogo da se opi{at so blazon, i spored nego nekoj moè da go reproducira istiot grb iako pre thodno go nema videno. Ona {to ova definicija propu{ta da go spomene a e od kru cijalno zna~ewe e deka grbot se koga{ e “likovno izrazen”na {tit so kogo e neraskinlivo povrzan. I konceptualno no i fizi~ki. Povtorno, ona {to ne e spomen ato e deka grbot e nasleden. Tokmu od ova negova karakteristika, nie vo makedonskiot, kako i drugite slovenski jazici go dobivame i samiot zbor “grb”, od germanskiot zbor “ERBE” koj zna~i nasledno. Ako sega gi vmetneme doobjas nuvawata i izostavenite rab oti spomnati pogore, toga{ za definicija na grb imame: “Potraj na nasledna oznaka za identi fikacija na oddelni li~nosti, familii, korporacii, politi~ki i crkovni ustanovi, organizacii i dràvi, funkcii, teritorii i naseleni mesta, izrazeni so liko vni sredstva (znakovi i boi) spored heraldi~kite pravila” Grbot moè da se definira i kako “osnoven element na heraldikata”. Kako takov toj e nerazdeliv del od heraldikata i sekoe razgleduvawe na grbot nadvor od heraldikata e pogre{no. U{te postra{no e obidot da se kreira grb a pritoa da se smeta deka heraldikata e mrtva nauka koja treba da se zanimava samo so prou~uvawe na minatoto.

Activities of MHS

Posledniot broj na Makedonski Herald be{e pro moviran na predavaweto nasloveno “ûdesniot svet na Heraldikata” odràno vo Muzej na Makedonija vo maj 2005. Vedna{ potoa, MHZ go krena glasot protiv kr{eweto na osnovniot koncept na heraldikata, po toa prezemen do veksilologijata, deka edno zname ne moè da prestavuva dva titulara vo isto vreme, {to be{e predloèno od toga{nata vlada kako re{enie na problemot so znamiwata na malcinstvata. MHZ izleze so predlog za minimalni izmeni (diferencijacija) na znamiwata na mati~nite dràvi koi }e ja pokaàt pripadnosta na malcinstvoto no i na identitetot na konositel na suverenosta na Republika Makedonija. Po preskonferencijata sledea mnogu napisi vo ves nicite i nastapi na televizija vo razni informa tivni debatni emisii, so {to popularnostana MHZ go dosegna svojot vrv. Drug vaèn moment e vklu~enosta na MHZ vo obidot za heraldizacija na vekeusvoeniot predlog za grb na op{tina Butel. MHZ zaedno so avtorot i op{tinskata administracija koja pokaà zrelost i spremnost da se re{i ovoj problem dojde do prifatlivo re{enie, no za àl Sovetot na op{tinata smeta{e deka e dovolno kompetentno da re{ava po ovaa tema i site napori padnaa vo voda. Se nadevavme deka barem Biroto za za{tita na industriska sopstvenost }e go prepoznae makedonskot zname vo dadeniot predlog i }e se povika na zakonot, no za àl i toa ne se slu~i. Taka site na{i napori propadnaa vo voda. Na{ata aktivnost prodolì vo istata nasoka so toa {to be{e pobarano od Grad Skopje da se dostavi predlog za heraldizacija na sega{niot grb na gradot Skopje, no bez da se menuva voop{to konceptot na postojniot grb.

Last issue of Macedonian Herald was promoted on the lecture titled: “The Wonderful World of Heraldry” held at the Museum of Macedonia in May 2005. Soon after, MHS has raised its voice against braking of the basic heraldry rule, later taken as well in vexilology, that a single flag could not be used by two parties at same time. This is regarding the Government decision to allow minorities to use the undifferentiated flags of their mother countries. MHS brought up a proposal of minimal differentiation of the flags the mother countries, which will show the belongings of a minority, but at the same time will show the identity as a co-bearer of the suzerainty of the Republic of Macedonia. After this press conference a number of newspaper articles followed as well as participation in many TV debates etc. This brought popularity of the MHS at its highest. Other important moment is the involvement of MHS in the attempt of heraldisation of an already voted proposal for Coat of Arms of municipality of Butel. MHS together with the author and municipal administration came to a acceptable solution, but unfortunately, the Municipal Council consider themselves experts enough to act on this matter, so all our efforts were in vain. We hoped that the Biro for protection of industrial property will recognize the Macedonian flag in the given proposal and will act according the law, but unfortunately it did not happen. Our activities continued in the same direction and MHS was asked to do heraldisation of the present coat of arms Poseta na Kolegiumot na grbovi: Potpretsedatelkata Dr. of City of Skopje, but with no changes to its concept. MHS Sne`ana Filipova gi napravi ovie fotografii na rabotna- gave two suggestions, one was total heraldisation and other ta soba na eden herald, mesto kade {to navistina se ra|aat was correction in the area of heraldic art. We still have no grbovite. Visit of College of Arms: Vice-President Dr.Snezana Filipova, answer from the city authorities on the status of our protook these photos in the working room of one of the herald, the posals. place where the Coat of Arms are realy born. One important aspect of MHS activities are ones done

DVE VARIJANTI NA SREDEN GRB

Edna od glavnite predmeti na heraldikata e opi{uvawe na grbovite. Toj opis – “Blazon” ja prestavuva su{tinata na grbot, koj za heraldikata e pova`en od likovniot prikaz – “Emblazon”. Procesot na opi{uvawe na grbot (pi{uvawe na blazonot) se vika blazonirawe. Pritoa blazonot mora da bide jasen i nedvosmislen, taka sekoj heraldi~ki umetnik da mo`e da go emblazonira – likovno da go prestavi tokmu toj grb. Tokmu poradi ova, od najgo lema va`nost e da se napravi re~nik na standardnite make donski heraldi~ki termini, bez koi e nevozmo`no seriozno da se zanimavame so prou~uvawe i prak tikuvawe na heraldikata. Heraldikata pokraj so grbot se zanimava i so heraldi~kite znamiwa i bexevite. Site heraldi~ki elemen ti {to gi poseduva armigerot-onoj {to poseduva grb: grb, heraldi~ki znamiwa i bexevi prestavuva Heraldi~ko dostignuvawe.

Prv i osnoven termin e {titot. Toj go prestavu va i osnovniot oblik na grbot [TANDART – odnosno maliot grb ili ~esto samo - grb. Grbot se sostoi od pole (povr{inata na {titot) ili poliwa dokolku {ti tot e podelen, i heraldi~ka figBEX ura, ili prosto – figura. Poleto pak, se karakterizira so boja. (Ilustraci ja na str.16). Boite moàt da se prestavat na tri na~ini: So aplicirawe na boja, so heral di~ka {rafura (Petra Sankta) MAL GRB i so ozna~uvawe, koga se koristat samo bukvi (dadeni vo zagradite). Boite na poleto se delat na tri grupi: 1. Metali: Zlato (Z) (òlta) i Srebro (S) (bela); 2. Boi (tinkturi, emajli): Crve na (C), Sina (Sn), Zelena (Zl), Crna (Cr) i Purpurna (P) 3. Krzna: Hermelin i Ververica, kako i Perduvi i Skrgunki Iako ne moè da se zboruva za zna~eweto na boite kako nivna ka rakteristika, sepak niz istorijata se provlekuvaat zna~ewa povrzani so boite: Zlato: Svetost, trajnost, Bogat stvo, pravda, milosrdie, razbi rawe, ugled, hrabrost. Srebro: Nevinost, ~istota, mudrost, radost. Crvena: Krv, kralstvo, hrabrost, sloboda, qubov. Sina: Vernost, postojanost, ot menost. Zelena: mladost, raste`, plod nost, zdravje, ubavina, nade`. Purpurna: Blago~estivost, suve-

renost, umerenost. Crna: Taga, mudrost, cvrstina, crkva. Krznata kako karakteristika na poleto poteknuva od praksata dr veniot {tit da se prekriva so razni vidovi koì i krzna. Najzastapuvani krzna se Hermelinot i Ververicata. Crnite dezeni na hermelinot gi prestavuvaat opav~iwata na ìvot nite od koi se dobiva ova krzno. Ima 4 vidovi na Hermelin, prestaveni na crteòt na str. 16. Hermelinot e na srebreno crni opav~iwa (1). Kontra Hermeli not e na crno beli opav~iwa (2). Zlatniot Hermelin prestavuva crni opav~iwa na zlatno (3), i Peon, zlatni opav~iwa na crno (4). Ververi~kata pak prestavu va krzno so{ieno od koì na ververi~ki, kade beliot del go prestavuva me{eto na ververi~kata. Drugiot del tradicionalno e sin. Spored na~inot na sostavuvawe na poedine~nite krzna razlikuvame nekolku vidovi na Ververica, prestaveni na crteòt na str 16. Ververica (5), Ververica vo stolb (6), Kontra-ververica (7), i Ververica vo kraj (8). Postoi i drug vid na ververica koga krznata na ververi~kata se vo oblik na bukvata “t”(9). I tamu se koristi istata logika vo nazivite. Osven ovie dva vida krzno, pone koga se upotrebuvaat Skrgunki (10) i Perduvi (11). Pokraj osnovnite boi na poleto postojat i dva vida na heraldi~ki {ari. Edniot e koga poleto e pode leno pove}epati (12, 13), za {to }e stane zbor koga }e zboruvame za podelbite na {titot. Vtoriot, pak prestavuva poseano pole (14, 15). Poseano pole e koga na poleto se povtoruvaat golem broj mali fig uri koi toga{ ne se smetaat kako figuri tuku kako {ara, odnosno kako samoto pole. Zakonot na boi veli deka metal ne se stava vrz metal, nitu boja vrz boja. Ova e od pri~ina {to takvite kombinacii te{ko se identifiku vaat od dale~ina, koe e edna od celite i ulogite na grbot.

The earrings bear the field inventory numbers 2264a and 2264b. They were discovered on 6 October 2000 in grave 909 as the only archaeological find. They were located at the head (lower jaw) of the poorly preserved skeleton of a child. It should be noted that on several segments of the earrings remnants of fine fabric, probably a head cover, are preserved on the surface, soldered and oxidised on the metal base. The earrings are made of thin copper sheet metal. In terms of appearance and type of use, the earrings from Vodoca are analogous to those painted in Milica’s portrait. Therefore, they are dated to the late 15th century, although they may have been used or came under ground during the 16th century. In contrast to the specimens from the donors’ composition in the monastery in Matka where the decoration is not clearly visible and can only be conjectural, the ornaments on the earrings from Vodoca are well defined. In fact, the most evident signals conveyed by these earrings are the visual ones, i.e., they are depicted on the circular outer surfaces that would have been immediately visible. A wolf in a specific surrounding is depicted on these earring with the embossing technique applied on the single mould/ pattern used four times (2 x 2 on the two circular sides of the earrings). The depiction shows its full figure in profile as it moves with one front leg stepping forward. The wolf’s claws are emphasized, indicating its potential aggressiveness; its ears are pricked upwards, the head is horizontally protruded and the snout with strong jaws is wide open. The tail is flatly outreached and then curved in the opposite direction above its body; it is transformed into a branch with two almost circular twigs whose tip terminates at the wolf’s head. The entire composition IS framed with a circle that marks the edge of the mould. The empty surfaces under the neck, around the legs and above the back are filled with hemi-spherical protrusions which may have been intended for decorative purposes, to fill the “empty space” or to illustrate a particular environment. Before we begin our in-depth analysis of this depiction, we would like

to stress that certain motifs from the customary repertory of the late mediaeval emblems or heraldic depictions are encountered in some specimens of the jewelry discovered in the necropolis in Vodoca. In this regard, of special importance are the rings, which include certain impressive heraldic specimens. In one such specimen the composition shown on the upper surface of the head of a massive silver ring shows a complete coat of arms with the following elements: wolf, shield and dagger, surrounding inscription. The manufacture and morphological characteristics of this ring indicate that it belongs among the specimens worn by the nobility in the last decades of the 14th century. It is a high-quality specimen of a signet ring whose 1 head shows the family coat of arms of a prominent aristocratic family from these areas. Rather than proceeding with a detailed analysis of this exceptional find, on this occasion we focus on one detail from this heraldic depiction, the wolf as a motif. In this case, too, it is depicted in its full shape, in movement and in profile, with emphasized claws and an open jaw; its head, however, is placed vertically in relation to the body and has a short, vertical tail. The wolf as a motif (head, upper part or full figure in different positions) is one of the more customary motifs among the numerous depictions of family personal emblems of family coats of arms that have been recorded in Late Middle Ages (13th to 14th centuries) and the centuries that followed after the Ottoman conquest of this and the neighboring regions. This is best seen in the numismatic material that is relatively rich and well known in scholarly circles; it practically always shows the emblem or the coat of arms of the individual who commissioned the minting of the coin and it was also customary in the making of other items which belonged to the given person. With its attributes, the wolf represents an appropriate symbol for the identification with its characteristics. The fascination with this beast and its implementation in the myths, beliefs and customs are always present in some form in the cultures which existed in its habitat.

As an archetype, the wolf has a complex and ambivalent symbolism. Its ability to see in the dark makes it simultaneously a solar and a chthonic creature. Its power, bloodthirstiness and fierceness are an allegory of the fighting spirit and warlike ecstasy to which heroes strive. The righteousness of such actions in the mentality of mediaeval man is reflected in the interpretations recorded in Fisiologus. In the tempestuous times of the Late Middle Ages, the wolf as a concept imposed itself and its characteristics as an appropriate personal emblem, part of the family coat of arms or even a mythical ancestor. The depiction of the wolf as a symbol, like the other depictions characteristic of this period, also appeared on flags, legacies, facades, vessels, weapons (especially on the shield), garments, decorative and utilitarian items, etc. Can it be claimed, in the absence of other, more concrete arguments (no ostheological remains and more exact indicators for dating with methods from the natural sciences, etc.) that individuals from the same family were buried in graves 196 and 909 in Vodoca? This question remains open; however, several dilemmas have been clarified and there are at least certain indications which appear tenable. The inventive craftsman, acting on the wish of the person who ordered the earrings and the current fashion evident in the fresco painting from the end of the 15th century, made a pair of earrings for a lady from a prominent family from Vodoca. He used the depiction of the wolf as a decorative motif, which reflects both a heraldic connotation in its primary meaning and, in terms of its secondary meaning, the narrative folk elements from the chthonic/lunar beliefs. Thus, we can follow the manner in which the lavish late mediaeval earring patterns of the circular type made for the nobility diverged and infiltrated folklore forms, drawing the inspiration from the vigorous energy of folk beliefs, at the same time preserving the features and the symbolism of the heraldic tradition.

The Wolf at the Vodoca Earrings Between 1979 and 2003 the archeologist Jovan Ananiev explored the large necropolis of the Vodoca Church Complex of St. Leonthius in the village of Vodoca near Strumica. With its 1081 discovered graves it belongs among the largest necropolises not only in Macedonia, but also in the wider region. The fact that it existed in the Middle Ages and was in the use until present makes it highly important for the study of numerous phenomena linked with the population which settled this area for almost a whole millennium. The village of Vodoca is situated at the foot of Mt. Elenica, 4km west of Strumica and at the entrance of the gorge of the river Vodocica. The necropolis lies around the church of

St. Lenothius which has several architectural and painting phases of the mediaeval period. Focusing on the jewelry from the period between the 15th and 18th centuries, which can be stratigraphically observed on one site for the first time, we isolated several very rare and highly important specimens. Among them, a unique find is a pair of circular earrings with a depiction of a wolf whose conception also has an heraldic connotation. Their appearance and decoration suggest that they are the only or, at least, the first find of this kind and can therefore appropriately be defined as the Vodoca variety of earrings of the circular type.

Miacs Flag-Reading of Applied Motiffs

Frances Kont states that Slavs frequently applied red thread to ritual cloth representing archaic motifs that may be related to their old mythology and to the Steppe tribes, especially those coming from Iran.a This type of decoration with triangles that imitate or stand for sun rays is very frequently applied in the Roman mosaics (the head of Medusa or Apollo in the temples in Pergamon, Corinth etc.) from which it has been borrowed in the Christian mosaics (Monastery-Heraclea, Plaoshnik). It usually serves as a frame to enclose an important motif, for example a head of a god, a cosmic symbol, an inscription of the donor etc. (the old Episcopal basilica in Stobi, the newly discovered one at Plaošnik, Ohrid). Even the medieval frescoes show continuity of this circle with triangles in the low zones of the walls which imitate marble decoration (one of the last Medieval churches where it has been used is the cokle of the nartex of St. Andreas on Matka, Skopje, from the end of the 14th C)

Macedonian Decorations By this article I think that it is good to remind ourselves of one very important Law, from the aspect of affirmation of the sovereignty and independence of our Republic - the Law of Decorations and Acknowledgments established by the Republic of Macedonia. The Law of decorations and acknowledgments was first passed on 12th September 1995, and amended by a new Law which was passed on 27th of June 2002. Article 1 says: “with this Law are established decorations and acknowledgments of the Republic of Macedonia and are specified the actions of their award and deprivation and the benefits and responsibilities of the persons awarded with the decorations …” Acknowledgments and decorations of the Republic of Macedonia are symbols of acknowledgment which are awarded by the President of the Republic himself for activities and acts which deserve public acknowledgment and emphasis. Decorations are awarded by decree and the acknowledgment is awarded by decision of the President of Republic

of Macedonia. Decorations and acknowledgments of the Republic of Macedonia are awarded to individuals who are citizens of the Republic of Macedonia, to units and institutions of the armed forces of the Republic of Macedonia, and to the members of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Also, the decorations and the acknowledgments of the Republic of Macedonia can be awarded to foreign citizens, and to foreign and international organizations. For individuals they can be awarded after the death of the person. By this Law, a citizen of the Republic of Macedonia may accept an award of a title, decoration or acknowledgment from the Head of a foreign State or government, as well as from governmental or non-governmental organizations. Decorations can be made in smaller dimensions as miniature decorations. Usually the miniature decorations are worn on official occasions by civilians on a suit and by members of army and police units on their ceremonial uniforms. According to the occasion, it may be more appropriate for members of the armed forces to wear full-size decorations. The decorations cannot be worn in full-size and miniature form at the same time, except that those decorations which are worn as a collar badge or with sash with badge and breast star may be worn with a miniature of the order. Decorations of the Republic of Macedonia covered by the Law of Decorations and Acknowledgments of the Republic of Macedonia arranged by

The material form of the awards was presented in a formal ceremony in the Crystal Hall in the Macedonian Parliament on 22nd April 2005 organized by the Cabinet of the President of the Republic and the Commission for Decorations.

At the same time it supported the development of the Macedonian phaleristic as part of the world phaleristics inheritance.

According to Traičev, the flag of the Miaks is as old as their tribe. He reads the crescent and the star above it as the sign of the Turkish Empire, put together with the symbol of the Byzantine/Serbian double headed eagle and the Albanian dragon in order to indicate that the region around the river Radika has been under the government of these countries. b This reading cannot be accepted without doubt. First of all, the dragon is not an Albanian symbol: no such coat of arms related to the territory of Albania has been known. On the contrary, the dragon is a symbol of the Slavic god of the cattle named Volos/Veles. And the Miaks are predominantly cattle breeding people. The wolf and the snake in folk mythology are referred to as underground creatures, and the dragon as the commander of the snakes has been in close relation to the nature of the underground god Volos/Veles.c The cult of the wolf is very much related to the cult of the underground world and the moon.d It is a common heraldic symbol in the coats of arms, stamps and belts of some medieval Serbian feudal rulers, such as Balsha II, Gjurgje Stracimirovic etc.e The Balshic’s had land in Albania and their coat of arms is presented in the collection of Albanian arms published by Gjin Varfi.f The position of the crescent and the star differs from the one on the Turkish flag, where the crescent is turned north-south , These are much older symbols that may be found on the barrier stones of Mesopotamia, where they stood for the moon, the son, the goddess Ishtar etc. Identically combined as on our flag (a star entering the arch of the crescent), positioned above the god of the sun can be seen on the stella of king Urnamu from Ur (2022-2004 B.C.).g These two signs combined in a different way may be associated with the Bogumils who used them on their grave stones. There is another possibility to relate them to the Illyrian coat of arms created in the 16th C. and published in the Minster’s Cosmography in Basel in 1544.h This coat of arms has been invented as part of Slavic propaganda, as a symbol of the cultural revival of the South Slavs, since its creators believed it to originate from the Il-

lyrians. So the same crescent and star we see in the corner of the Miaks flag where it is placed on red. According to Solovyev, the moon and the star, or the sun, stand for the heavenly ships, in other words the place where the souls of the righteous dwell before departing to heaven.i The star, crescent and crossbow are found in Huns’ flag, whose kingdom existed until three decades ago. Predominant unnatural green color of the sky combined with black and white on the mounts was probably due to the influence of surrounding Islamic countries. Their arms is a combination of the flag and a lion. This is interesting since the lion’s hair is similar to that on the flag of Razlovec Uprising. If the wingless double headed eagle is read as intertwining snakes, we can talk about an archetypical symbol of dualism, the good and the evil, or heretics. We see it on the church doors of St. Nicholas of the Hospitals in Ohrid, and the church door of the monastery in Treskavec, Prilep. If the wings are missing only on these two flags, or are not actually visible due to the bad quality of printing, and if a light color had been applied, then they can stand for the Byzantine state symbol of the 14th C., actually the coat of arms of the

and Byzantium throughout the Middle Ages by the import of luxurious fabrics used for cloths, curtain, tapestries and covers for altar tables. For instance we see the double headed eagle embroidered on the cloth of the Bulgarian Tsar John Alexander in a 14th C. manuscript illumination,j also on the clothes of Macedonian ruler Duka (in the church of St. Panteleimon in Ohrid) from the 3rd decade of 14th C.k The dragon and the lion may be read as symbols of the defeat of evil by Christ, since they flank his symbol, the cross, the way they have been represented on the bottom of the Large Iconostasis cross from the 16th C. onwards. The confronted dragon and the lion can be seen as well on the wood carved arches of the large throne icons of the iconostases.l It is again the old Christian composition and the dragon may be replaced with a snake, or with a fish. According to Petar Popovski, the Skenderbeg’s flag, a Miac from Kastrioti family included elements of the Miac’s flag as published by Bradina. The Flag and Coat of Arms of Kastrioti and their relations to the Miacs A variant of the Kastrioti armsm published as a drawing by Albanian author

Paleologue family, or as the symbol of the Orthodox Church and also the coat of arms of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The double headed eagle, the lion, the gryphon, and many other fantastic animals originated in the East and became popular in Europe, Russia

Varfi, has a rampant lion with a crescent under its feet with tail finishing inn ivy above which there is a white lily. In the dexter part a double headed eagle is added superficially. A very similar lion is found on Karlo Topia’s arms, only the tail ends in a dragon shape, and

in village of Simona near Kroja, which was described by Zhunguloski in 1897. By special edict by the Sultan, the usage of the lion was forbidden in 18th C, so we only have the encircled cross and the lion placed in the upper left corner, while other corners were filled with a crescent, a dragon and a double headed eagle with a cross on its breast. This flag was used by Miacs up till 1912, when it was forbidden by the newly established Serbian rule over our territory.p a

This flag is property of Melentie Pandilovski from Adelaida, Australia, who is the author of the photos. Dimensions of the flag is 130x73cm, with both sides identical.

instead of the lily there are stars above lion’s head. According to Popovski, the Kastrioti flag was also used by Topias.o A lion as a Topias symbol is found on the plate erected by Karlo Topia after the rebuilding of the church of St. Jovan Vladimir in Konjuh near Elbasan in 1383, written in Cyrillic, which according to Popovski is yet another proof of his Slavic roots. Popovski states that Konstantin Kastriot in the middle of 14th C, under the pressure of Anjou and Venice was forced to change his symbols to a 16-ray sun, inspired

from the sign of Antic Macedonians, a symbol that this dynasty then used for 5 generations. The flag now has a central golden lion on red, under which is an encircled cross with initials IS HR (Isus Hristos-Jesus Christ) in the upper part and NI KA. This might stand for the usual Greek word for victory or tentatively the initials of N. Kastriot as Popovski suggests. The coat of arms had a golden lion on red, with the crown above the shield. These arms were still used by the descendents of the oldest Kastrioti branch – Dimko
