Abstract:
The content of this article was inisiated by I. Bozilov’s study on “LesBulgares dans l’empire byzantin”, published in “Godisnik na sof Universitet,Istoriceski fakultet”, No 69 (1975), Sofia 1980, pp. 143-193. On the abovementioned study I. Bozilov discusses his ideas concerning the linguistic identityof the Slavs who established themselves in Greece during the Middle Ages,and concludes, that these Slavs, linguisticly, and thus, ethnicly, were Bulgars.The author of this article, however, is not persuaded by the explanation ofthe historical sources by I. Bozilov. So, Mr Malingoudis, using the same historicalmaterial as Mr. Bozilov shows in his article that during the Middle Ages,the theory about a “Bulgarian” population in the area of Thessaloniki, Chalkidikiand Serres, is nothing but a misunderstanding of the historical sources.
