Far-reaching political changes occurred in the Southern Balkan Peninsula from the end of the 13th until the middle of the 14th century, when the Serbian medieval kingdom expanded to the South under the king Stefan Uroš II Milutin at the expense of the Byzantine Empire, which lasted until 1355. This again had a severe impact on the border zones and cross-border societies between both realms in Byzantine Macedonia in the same period. Medieval written sources, mainly Serbian and Byzantine charters, form the initial point of research. The sources are analysed based on the methods deriving from Historical Geography and regarding potential structures of local or supra-regional power. Moreover, tools from Digital Humanities in mapping and visualisation are applied in order to communicate the achieved results to the interested public.

Im Mittelpunkt stehen besonders die Erwähnungen Prokops über die Slawen in seinen Gothenkriegen. Spezielle Beachtung wird dem Exkurs über die Heruler und dem Bericht über den wandernden langobardischen Königssohn Ildiges geschenkt. Beide Erzählungen galten von der Mehrheit der tschechischen und slowakischen Historiographie als Beweise dafür, daß dort erwähnte Slawen schon in dieser Zeit die Gebiete des heutigen Mähren oder der heutigen Slowakei bewohnten. Nur wenige Historiker, wie z. B. Alexander Avenarius, halten beide Berichte für wenig aussagekräftig. Tschechische klassische Philologen haben sich auch mit den anderen Werken Prokops auseinandergesetzt. Die alten Übersetzungen František Lepařs
sind nie in den Druck gegangen und blieben nur in Manuskript erhalten. Moderne Übersetzungen der gesamten Kriege stammen deshalb erst aus den Achtzigern des vorigen Jahrhunderts.

In our paper we will address the two following questions and compare the evidence from the medieval Balkans and Central Europe based on written sources, archaeological data, toponymy, maps and spatial concepts:
a) What is the connection between the places of veneration of Saint Archangel Michael – i. e. Michaeline religious sites – and natural (physical) features in the landscape?
b) May we discern particular natural (physical) features in the landscape and do they “attract” and shape Michaeline religious sites (or vice versa)?
Christian GASTGEBER - Ekaterini MITSIOU - Johannes PREISER-KAPELLER - Vratislav ZERVAN (Eds.), The Patriarchate of Constantinople in Context and Comparison. Proceedings of the International Conference Vienna, September 12th - 15th 2012. In Memoriam Konstantinos Pitsakis (1944 - 2012) and Andreas Schminck (1947-2015). Vienna 2017, 405 pp.
This volume about the history of the Ecumenical Patriarchate results from a congress, held in Vienna within the framework of research on the Register of the Patriarchate of Constantinople at the Division of Byzantine Research of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. Chronologically, these papers cover the (Byzantine) period from the 11th century onwards. The majority of the collected studies concern a crucial source: the Register of the Patriarchate of Constantinople. This includes more than 800 documents written between 1315 and 1402 by or for the Patriarchate and the “permanent Synod” of Constantinople, and is now held in the Austrian National Library, Cod. hist. gr. 47 and 48. Besides the Register, the evidence for the Patriarchate is confined to a small number of documents, synodical acts, and occasional references in narrative histories. However, the present volume brings two new texts to light. The focus of this volume is on the organization and administration of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, as well as on new biographical details of individual patriarchs. It also includes contributions devoted to the continuity of the Ecumenical Patriarchate and its new tasks in the early post-Byzantine period.
