dc.description.abstract | This paper aims to show how the ‘violent nature’ of ‘paleo-Balkan tribes’ as indicated
in some Greek and Roman texts is perceived, interpreted, and consequently constructed
as supposedly independent historical evidence in different archaeological narratives on a case
study of Kale-Krševica – a specific late Iron Age ‘Hellenised’ settlement in south-eastern Serbia.
Hypotheses about this site’s ethnic identity, which range from local Paeonians, Thracians,
Dardanians, or possibly even Greeks, are fit into the historical framework of violent Iron Age
period encounters, which have some very prominent ramification on further archaeological
interpretations. I will argue that theoretical aspects which are implemented favour violent
scenarios in order to present an expected and supposedly coherent image of distinctive Iron
Age ethnicities in a constant struggle even though it may not be the only nor the most likely
context. At the same time, the implementation of the concept of ‘Hellenisation’ as a colonial
perspective about local groups who quite ‘naturally’ become ‘Greek’ or ‘Greek-like’ and
therefore more ‘civilised’, makes this site’s social life a good arena for pointing out the direct
or implicit use of various narratives about past/present violence. | sr |
