          Well I found an image of an ancient bas-relief from Luvre Museum that shows meeting of Alexander with Diogen. That dog next Alexander's horse resemble much with the modern dogs of Sharr mountains.



          What are your thoughts?

          A mate of mine told me that even in some distant Asian regions where Macedonian and Illyrian garrisons were settled, are found some dogs that resemble with Sharr ones.

                The image of the Šarplaninec is featured on the reverse of the Macedonian 1 Denar coin, issued in 1993

                  A true story about a soldier and the Sarplaninec that saved his life.



                  I can never forget what that dog did for me. It was in the

                  freezing winter of 1988. I was serving in my National Army

                  Service that year. I was 18 years old and the duty I

                  pulled that freezing night was to patrol the border between

                  Macedonia and Albania. The temperature that night was

                  -30c. My uniform and freeze proof grease didn't seem to

                  help any at all. I was freezing and badly equipped for my

                  duty I had no radio, no map, and not even a light. As I

                  was walking through the woods I became lost, I had totally

                  lost my sense of direction. I soon noticed someone or

                  something was following me. I suddenly stopped walking and

                  loaded my rifle. I was scared and very cold. I kept

                  looking in the direction the sound was coming from and

                  pointed my rifle towards whatever it was. All of a sudden

                  I noticed it was a dog, my first thought was this is a

                  wolf. So I remained very still just in case it decided to

                  attack me that way I could shoot it. The animal stood

                  still just like me. All I could see was its shadow against

                  the snow and cold moonlit night. I started to make

                  friendly sounds toward the animal and said to it come on

                  doggy, come on. It moved slowly towards me and then there

                  it was. It was a very large Sarplaninac with a full winter

                  coat. He was wagging his tail happy to see me. I was very

                  tired and relieved; all I wanted to do was sleep. I gave

                  the dog a big hug, and felt his nice warm fur against me.

                  I knew somehow that I needed to find my army base as

                  quickly as possible, however I was tired, weak and a very

                  inexperienced soldier. As I walked the dog followed me it

                  felt good to have a companion by my side. My fear was much

                  diminished by his presence. As I walked I came up on a

                  house that had been abandoned. It was in ruins it did not

                  have any doors or windows on it. I was so tired that I

                  decided to go in and sleep there. I just couldn't carry

                  what little equipment I had anymore. I laid on the frozen

                  floor, and this big dog just laid down beside me, he curled

                  up very close and I put myself against him. His winter

                  coat kept me warm. I could feel his bones through his fur

                  and I knew he had not eaten in a long time, evidently he

                  had been abandoned by his owners but oh he kept me warm.

                  His eyes were sad and he never barked when we were together

                  alone. Soon I fell asleep beside him I don't know for how

                  long I was sleeping but it must have been hours. All of a

                  sudden I heard sounds and shouting. It was my patrol!

                  However I was so weak I couldn't move. I shouted weakly

                  and the dog began barking. As my patrol came upon me the

                  dog started growling to protect me from them. I asked if I

                  could take the dog with me and the answer was No! I asked

                  if I could give him food, again the answer was No! It was

                  to be the last I ever saw of that dog, my lonely hungry

                  friend. I was in the Yugoslav National Service for another

                  three weeks. I decided then to desert the military and

                  went to live in the United Kingdom. That dog saved my

                  life, and I never had the chance to thank him or hug him.

                  I didn't even get to give him a bone or take him home and

                  save him as he had saved me. It was my wish that he would

                  never be alone.

                    Assuming it is the same dog. If the dog used in Alexander's armies has survived, why couldn't the people have survived? Just a thought and a question.

                      No Pelister !!! In this world only Greeks could survived up to our days. They impress me with their unbroken continuity...just kidding.

                      Modern imposer Greeks inherited beside others even the motorcycles from 'their' famous ancestors:

                        I know nothing of dogs, but that is neither ancient, nor local. It's a French artwork from late 1600s.

                              It's probably that moron that once slithered around here called 'sportster'.

                                SoM, that's nothing comparing with other advanced technologies of ancient Greeks For example ancient Greeks used a kind of laptop computers of highest quality :



                                So it's quite injustice when some people wants to deny the heritage of ancient Hellenes into modern ones... lol

                                Sorry for being ironic but having in mind the arrogance celebrated by most of imposer Greeks, I simply can't hold my laughing with the superiority of them.

                                Just for a curiosity: Did you know that Aphrodite arranged her meetings with Ares on her cell phone?
                                Let face with the facts:



                                What irks me the most is your persistence on denying the Greek superiority in field of technology!!!
