The late antique castellum of Vig in northern Albania. Function and context

位于阿尔巴尼亚北部的Vig古城堡位于亚得里亚海城镇Lissus的腹地，它与城市Naissus （Nis/塞尔维亚）以及Tabula Peutingeriana相连。它坐落在考古未开发的Gjader山谷中。到目前为止，人们还以为维格的暴风已经控制了这条街。直到今天，在这种背景下还没有考虑到，近代早期在利苏斯/勒扎东北部的山区有银矿和20世纪的铜矿，并由早期探险家证实。阉人的功能可能主要是控制河谷和矿石开采。计划进行地球物理勘探和首次考古发掘，以一种不同寻常的建筑技术建造，以获得关于以前不为人知的内部建筑以及castrum的时间和位置的可靠信息。还应通过在Gjader山谷的调查来澄清，是否存在像Vig/u这个名字所显示的那样的风暴的vicus，以及是否也可以在该地区早期的矿石开采中发现。对维格城堡的功能和背景的研究，以及对Gjader山谷定居历史的探索，将为这个位于阿尔巴尼亚北部、人去难至的重要纪念碑提供新的知识。

The late antique castrum of Vig in North Albania is located in the hinterland of the Adriatic town Lissus, which was connected by a road with the city Naissus (Nis/Serbia), as well as the Tabula Peutingeriana shows. It is situated in the archaeological unexplored valley of Gjader. It was assumed so far that the castrum of Vig secured this street. Until today has not been considered in this context that in the mountainous region northeast of Lissus / Lezha in early modern times silver mines and in 20th century copper mines were operated and are testified by early explorers. The function of the castrum possibly was primarily in the control of the river valley and ore mining. Plans are for a geophysical prospecting as well as the first time an archaeological excavation within the castrum, which was built in an unusual construction technology, to obtain reliable information about the previously unknown internal buildings as well as the time and position holding time of the castrum. It should also be clarified by a survey in the valley of Gjader whether there was a vicus of the castrum, as the name Vig/u seems to show, and whether also can be detected in earlier epochs ore mining in this region already. The study of function and context of the castrum of Vig and the exploration of the settlement history of the Gjader Valley will provide new knowledge on this inaccessible located, significant monument in northern Albania.
