Albanopolis

Albanopolis was a city of the Albanoi, an Illyrian tribe [1]. The city appears in the literature in 150 AD, almost 300 years after Roman conquest of the region [1]. The toponym Albanopolis has been found on a funeral inscription in Gorno Sonje, near the city of Skopje, present-day North Macedonia [1]. It was discovered in 1931 by Nikola Vulić and its text was analyzed and published in 1982 by Borka Dragojević-Josifovska [1]. Ptolemy (100-170 AD) is the only author who mentions Albanopolis [1].
