ΕΝΑ ΠΡΟΒΛΗΜΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗΣ ΜΕΣΑΙΩΝΙΚΗΣ ΙΣΤΟΡΙΑΣ: Η ΣΕΡΒΙΚΗ ΕΠΕΚΤΑΣΗ ΣΤΗ ΔΥΤΙΚΗ ΚΕΝΤΡΙΚΗ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ ΣΤΑ ΜΕΣΑ ΤΟΥ ΙΔ' ΑΙ.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE 14TH C. THE SERBS EXTENDED THEIR STATE, CONQUERING LARGE AREAS OF MACEDONIA, THESSALY AND EPIRUS. HOWEVER, CONTRARY TO WHAT HAS BEEN UNANIMOUSLY ACCEPTED TO DATE, THEY DID NOT CONQUER AETOLIA AND ACARNANIA. THE TERMS"AETOLIA" AND "AKARNANIA" DENOTE EPIRUS IN BYZANTINE SOURCES, AND, AS OUR RESEARCH HAS DEMONSTRATED, THERE IS NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THE PRESENCE AND FUNCTION OF A SERBIAN STATE IN AETOLOACARNANIA DURING THIS PERIOD. ON THE CONTRARY, THERE WERE SCATTERED AND ISOLATED SETTLEMENTS OF ALBANIAN TRIBES IN THIS AREA, MOREOVER, THEY WERE NOT DIRECTLY DEPENDENT ON THE SERBIAN STATE. THEIR PRESENCE IN AETOLOACARNANIA WAS BRIEF AND ONLY A FEW TRACES, SUCH AS TOPONYMS, SURVIVE ATTESTING TO THEIR PASSAGE. TOWARDS THE END OF THE 14 TH C. THEY BEGAN TO ABANDON THIS AREA, REMOVING TO EAST CENTRAL GREECE AND THE PELOPONESE.
