Not only the mother who was a Serb, but Skenderbeu's sister married Serbian”

Numerous references have been mentioned in the many reactions that have been observed in the discussion on the origin of Skenderbe's mother. But you don't need to refer to everyone. Just go to some early, earliest sources. Because everyone else is based on these sources. In that sense, it's futile to beat the beast to tell others what Fan Noley, Christo Frasher, Oliver Jens Schmitty, Hahni, Babinger or others have written notes or monographs about our national hero. Let us therefore remain in the foremost sources of this subject.

Who are the authors who have talked about Vojsawa? They're the same ones who talked about her son, Skenderbeu. The first is Marin Barlett, who has been said to be saying this, now in his famous work on Skenderbeun writes that Vojsawa was the daughter of the prince of the tribals (Look at Barlett in the Albanian version called “The History of Skenderbeut”, translated by Stefan I. The priest, on page 2, but also in the original Latin version of the book “Historia de vita gestis Scanderbegi epirotrum prisis...” on page III.

Now we may ignore Barlett as long as he describes (his style is characterized by overindulgence), but when he tells us a fact, we do not have to question it. And the fact is, Vojsawa was the daughter of the prince of the tribals.

The same suggests John Muzaca, and with that we have come to witness the second, dating back to 1510 (it is written much at the same time that Barlet wrote his history of Skenderbe). This muzacave pingol has left a story of his own door, and there, as far as Vojsawa is concerned, writes: “E piú sappiate l cignologir Giovanni Castrito, parer Scanderbego, hebé for moglira Visva Tribalda, conquie quatro fisol fiscoli e cque fige<-1x>, (x>x2Hasia delilaçàzu>, section of the book <kofcro>, published by the Berlin <Chroscro> Booksiary de Weidmann”, page 295).

Which in Albanian would also teach that Mr. John Kastriot, father of Mr. Skenderbe, had a wife, Ms. Vojsawa Tribalda, with whom he made four sons and five girls”, (page 446 of the book Pellumb Jufi book called “From paleologists to Muzakaj”.

Of course, the last name “Tribalda” is linked to the type of “tribals”. Who are the tribals (but without confusing it to the “tric” referenced to the substatic “tribú”)? We can learn this from John Muzaca's son Constantine, who, in his notes above his ancestors (this is testimony No. 3, writes: “... li Dalmatini chiggi ggoi li Schavoni, et Iliri khgi dicono Bosnesi, Tribali khgggii that Nominano Servian”, (page 313 of Charles Hopf's just mentioned)” In Albanian it says: “... called Dalmatian today the Slavs, the Bosnians are called by their first name, by the name of tribals, Serbians”.

And with that I'm going to tell all my detonators: I nailed you! The truth is, though, that we did not have to look for lyre evidence in the saved notes of Constantine Muzaca. There are many other authors before and after him who did the same thing, that is. The term tribals has been used to call Serbs and Bulgarians, but mostly Serbs. And so, there is no artificication that the tribals can make Albanians.

The “Tribals have been a Illyrian tribe”, highlighted these days. But that doesn't mean anything. As noted by Constantine Muzaca's recent statement, the country's name can easily be taken by anyone living there in later times. Furthermore, this issue of origin “=x3> of the Tribals of old (Triball) is not so clear. There's some author who calls them Illyrians, but there's someone else he calls Thracian.

And finally, suppose the tribals were loose. Suppose that this is provable. Or better yet, already proven. What have we solved with this? Nothing. In this situation, we would have to prove that Albanians stem from Illyrians or, in other words, that there is an endless Ilio-Albanian sequel. But even the stupidest historian knows that this is still 100% untested. What science (I'm saying: science) has said so far is very simple: Albanians have more reason than other peoples living in areas where Illyrians have lived in ancient times, to claim to stem from the latter, but that still remains to a large extent to try. So we'd better use the ID as long as it's valuable. When we have scientific discussions, we understand.

Now we come to the fourth testimony, which is more interesting than the first three. In a book entitled “Conmentario dele cose de turchi, et del Signor George Skenderbeg, principle di Epiro, con la soa et vita e le vitorie per lui conseguite, et lenestibili forze, et vertú di quillo, degne di memoria”, with author Paulo Giovio of Andrea Gambino, publication of the first half of the 16th century XVI, exactly 150th <01, the last chapter on Skender. And there, on the front page of this chapter, it says: “Scanderbeg, Precincipe di Epiro, figliolo del S. Ivan Castrioth, who synoggiava quella porte di Albaniaa, la quaal as Chiama Emmathia of Tumenistia: la mare di scanderbeg, Chiamaa Voisawa, figliula del S. di Pollogo, who é una parte della Macedonia et Bugaria”

In Albanian: Skenderbeu, Prince of Epirus, was the son of Mr. John Kastriot (Ivan calls him the author in the original, and Christo Frasher does not mention this document as he argued with Oliver Jens Schmittin on the name of Skenderbet's father and as he defends that in Italian Latin sources he was not called Ivan; perhaps he did not have this document in his hand; and rather so; otherwise, he would have captured the part of Albania that was called the Matt-Tunder-Tunder-Tunder-Sunder-Sunder-Swed mother, with the name of Vojva, the daughter that I wanted your attention here. It's a part of Macedonia and Bulgaria.

You guys notice? The author, who may also have been Albanian Dimitrier Frangu (Demetrio Franco), leaves no room for speculation in favour of the Albanian Pollog thesis. “Pollog is part of Macedonia and Bulgaria”, it is clearly said. With this we leave the paper that Vojsawa was Serb, but it remains certain Vojsawa was Slavic. Albanian, not that. Those who hold to the theme that Pollog “is originally inhabited by Arberators” should tell us where they found the evidence that the Pollog was inhabited by the magistrates and explain what they wanted to say in the “initially”.

Now, it doesn't have to be disfellowshipped for the Pollolog to have been a world-accused, even thinking that there were married families with him, but the Vojsawa family was not one of them. Otherwise, the early authors would not tell us that it is the tribal. They'd tell us it's the armory.

These documents, I think, are the most important in this case. First, because they're the earliest. Second because it's ours, Arbeer. And I hope that the higher it serves as an invitation to a full debate, on the basis of documents, from the labels, from the posts, from the fans, from the brutish, the sensitivities, from the patriotic sneezings with tears and spells. Not for anything, but patriotism in this case is worth nothing.

As I have had the opportunity to say, and as well known by history connoisseurs, interethnic marriages in Vojsawa's time have been more frequent, more frequent than academic excessions with enemies and traitors today. As an illustration, John Muzaca's book is, in addition, a kind of civil office and aristocracy of the Albanian centuries X IV, XV and XVI, and a reader, however careless, could not escape the fact that the princely Albanian families (Muzakaj, Cunemen, Dukagjine, Topiaj, Kastriots, Gropates, Balsaj, etc.), preferred many with each other, but at the same time had something to marry their child to the Montenegrins, Serbs, raguzains, Venica, napola, Hungarian, and so on. John Kastriot's marriage to Vojsawa was one of many of its kind.

At this point, hold on to men! The son of Skenderbe, named John, also took to wife Jerina Paleologen (Erin Paliologa in the original), who was the daughter of Lazarus, the despot of Serbia (see page 432 in Jufi translation or page 28 of Charles Hopf's book). You want more?

Even Skenderbe's sister Maria (as she calls John Muzaca) or Mara (as Marin Barlet calls her) married Stefan Cernojevich (see page 447 in Jufi's book “From Muzakaj paleologists”, and page 295 in Charles hopf's book “Chroniques Grco-romans”). As you can see, the Kastriots have had much affection for Serb and Slavic marriages. But no patriot needs to lose. That doesn't change anything in the fact that Gjergj Kastriot Skenderbeu has been, is, and will remain the national hero of Albanians. The latter cannot be questioned. And no wise-minded man has ever put it on his head. It's his life and his work -- besides origin in fatherly line -- that tells us he was Albanian.
