  • Summary

  • Today’s episode picks up the story in Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages. We’ll cover the tumultuous period after Roman rule – a time when new peoples swept into the Balkans, and the foundations for medieval Bosnia were laid.. We’ll learn who the early Slavs were – where they came from, what their society and beliefs were like – and how they migrated to the Balkans. We’ll see how these Slavic tribes eventually formed early states, and how Bosnia emerged as a distinct entity amid the power struggles of empires and neighboring kingdoms. And finally, we’ll discuss the Christianization of the Slavs, including why Bosnia was one of the last areas to embrace the new religion and how many pagan traditions survived in folk culture.
