Ardian (given Name)
Ardian is an Albanian name. Although similar to Adrian, a name of Latin origin, the Albanian name Ardian ( Ardjan and Ardijan being other variants) is a derivation of Ardiaei, the name of an ancient Illyrian people. Their original inland residence was along the Naro River (modern river Neretva, also known as Narenta in ancient times) up to the Konjic region, in present-day Bosnia and Herzegovina. Etymology Both the name of the ancient Illyrian people 'Ardiaei', and the personal name 'Ardian' have the same root - ''ardia''. The Albanian word that corresponds most closely to the root-word 'ardia' is ''ardhja'', meaning the future, ''arrival'' or ''descent'', by which ''Ardian'' would therefore be "the one that arrives or descends from...", or simply ''the descendant/offspring''. However, one certainly ought to consider all other possible etymologies for ''Ardiaei'', which in this form certainly belongs to Latin transliteration, in order to reach any tangible conclusion.

The name ''Illyrians'' seems to be the name of a single Illyrian tribe that was the first to come into contact with the ancient Greeks, causing the name Illyrians to be applied to all people of similar language and customs. The locations of Illyrian tribes/peoples prior to the Roman conquest are approximate, as sometimes many wholly different locations are given by ancient writers and modern authors (as in the case of the Enchelei). After the Great Illyrian Revolt, the Romans deported,J. J. Wilkes, ''The Illyrians'', 1992, , p. 217. split, and resettled Illyrian tribes within Illyria itself and to Dacia, sometimes causing whole tribes to vanish and new ones to be formed from their remains, such as the Deraemestae and the Docleatae, some of them mixed with Celtic tribes (see Celticization). Many tribal names are known from Roman and the number of their , formed of the di ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Under Ismail Qemali's leadership a first central bank was created on 4 October 1913 but it only lasted a few months.
