Research potential of Skopje Fortress for Ottoman archaeology
Apstrakt
Ottoman presence in the Balkans has influenced its life on different levels. Its existence is
present in our heritage in various forms and elements of everyday life. Due to the political and ideological
circumstances in the recent past, archaeology was not involved in the research of Ottoman past to the extent
that it corresponds to the significance of the material remains. The idea that written sources contain
sufficient information was the answer to the lack of Ottoman archaeology. In the recent decades, this
view has changed and several steps were made as an impetus of the beginning of Ottoman archaeology in
the Balkan region. These steps were made as a part of projects dealing with broader topics but enabled
the researchers to access the archaeological remains from the Ottoman period and publish first systematic
reviews of the pottery assemblages and architectural remains. The aim of this paper is to present the
first steps that have been made at the Skopje fortress that r...eveal it as a precious source not only for the
reconstruction and interpretation of the Ottoman period on the location itself, but also for the reconstruction
of its role in the Ottoman society and in the wider region in that period
