Abstract

In this session we will present scholarly results of our ongoing project 'Beyond East and West: Geocommunicating the Sacred Landscapes of 'Duklja' and 'Raška' through Space and Time (11th-14th centuries)' (HOLDURA), being part of the Tabula Imperii Byzantini Balkans. We will present papers on the medieval routes in our area of research, which we have embedded into our project's TIB OpenAtlas Database and which we query via our front-end 'Maps of Power: Historical Atlas of Places, Borderzones and Migration Dynamics in Byzantium (TIB Balkans)'. Moreover, we will highlight possible connections between routes, cults of saints, and the distribution of their churches and monasteries, thus addressing the respective sacred landscape. Very important fields in this session are represented by cartographic aspects as well as state of the art geocommunication.
