Montenegrins attacking Becic [i.e., Decic] Fort (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Mark said:
    I just noticed the tag for 'First Baltic War' is consistent amongst all these photos. This, of course, should be 'First Balkan War'.

    The writing on the negative looks to be "BECIC" not "BEDIC" to me. There is a Becic in Montenegro and another in Serbia (using today's boundaries). See www.fallingrain.com/world/YI/a/B/e/c/ There was also a General Becic in the Montenegrin army. See militaryhistory.suite101.com/article.cfm/the_1914_army_of...

    Taking a different tack... From www.oldandsold.com/articles14/travel-363.shtml "The Montenegrin army began the fighting. It made an attack on the Turkish position at Podgoritza, and after a four hours' artillery engagement, forced the Turks to evacuate the heights they had occupied. The Montenegrins then attacked the fortified position of the Turks at Detchich." So, maybe it should be Decic (or rather Dečić). See www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Tuzi "Tuzi and Malesia became a part of Montenegro some 90 years ago. Tuzi was under Ottoman (Turkish) rule as all the other Albanian and neighbouring lands. Although it was the last one that fell under Turkish rule & the first one that was liberated. The first national upheaval for liberation from Turkish rule, after the death of Gjergj Kastroiti Skendernbeu, was initiated in the forests near Tuzi, in Dečić hill."

Montenegro - an outpost of the Malissori (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • cotinis said:
    This website (PDF) says: The North Albanians are divided into tribes or clans; those to the north being grouped under the designation of Malissori, or men of the Black Mountains, including the Clementi, Castrati, Hoti, Skreli, and other tribes; ... A New York Times article about the Malissori in conflict with the Turks is from 1 August 1911.
