БЕРЗИТИЈА
Почнувајки од Велес, па се до Лерин на југ и од Кичево/Струга на запад до р. Вардар на исток во 8 век се формирала држава Берзитија -Верзитија (L. Niederle, Slovan. starozhit., Dil. II, str. 428—29.). Тоа била држава на Берзитите (Верзитите), македонско словенско племе, во кои биле вклучени т.е. претопени и античките Македонци....
“The
Barsils were a semi-nomadic Eurasian tribe, probably of Turkic linguistic affiliation, and possibly identical with the Bagrasik. They are included in the list of steppe people living north of Derbend in the Syrian compilation of Zachariah Rhetor, and are also mentioned in documents from the second half of the 6th century AD in connection with the westward migration of the Eurasian Avars. When the Avars arrived, according to Theophylact Simocatta, "the
Barsilt (Barsilians), Onogurs, and Sabirs were struck with horror (...) and honoured the new-comers with brilliant gifts."
In an Armenian geography of the 7th century, the Barsirs are described as living on an island, distinct from the Bulgars and Khazars and at odds with both nations. In addition, it describes them as possessing large flocks of sheep, supporting the notion that they were at least partly nomadic. Mikhail Artamonov theorized that "
Barsilia" was located in northern Daghestan…”
“...More accurate data about the Barsils contains the so called New List of the Armenian geography from the 7-th century. It narrates that in the Volga delta "there is an island, where the people of
basli (the Barsils) take shelter from the
bushki (bulhi - the Bulgars) and from the khazars... The island is called Black because of the many basli living there together with their numerous livestock." The 'island' in question is probably the land between the river Eastern Manuch and the present Volga mouth.
... Also, Theophanes tell us that the 'populous people of the Khazars came out from the innermost parts of
Bersilia in Sarmatia Prima.' It is well known that the lower course of Volga was the eastern frontier of Asiatic Sarmatia. That is why the country
Bersilia was probably located near the mouth of Volga.
... When the Barsils left these lands they
settled in the Middle Volga region and
merged with the Volga Bulgars. Ibn Rustah (the beginning of the 10-th century) says that they represented
one of the three branches of the Volga Bulgars: "the first branch was called
Bersula, the second -
Esegel, and the third -
Bulgar." What drove the Barsils to run away to the Volga Bulgars is implicitly mentioned by the Khazar khagan Joseph in the description of his domain in a letter to the Jewish dignitary Hasdaj Ibn Shaprut...”
=>
In the Caucasus: Barsils/Bersilia, Bulgars + other associated tribes.
In the Middle Volga: Bersula, Esegel, Bulgars (+ others associated tribes).
In the Balkans/Danube: Berziti/Berzitija, Bulgars, ...
(Bonus question: Which tribe might be the Danubian equivalent of the ‘Esegel’?)
So were the Berzitians/Berzitia of Veles:
– a “македонско словенско племе”?
– a “македонско словенско племе” of Asiatic origin??
– "Берзитија била итало-ромејска...", composed of Macedono-Slavic Turko-Tatars, "во кои биле вклучени т.е. претопени и античките Македонци..."???
Bitushe, I am sorry. I am so sorry... There is much more for you to learn if you are so interested in the Bulgarian history...
