Vasil Iljov and the Inscriptions in Macedonia

[Soldier of Macedon]

Here you go GeorgeS, knock yourself out

[Trajkovski]

Vasil might be onto something..

"The first signs of written communication is rooted in the Macedonian rocks, two millenniums before the ancient Egyptians started their writing and just as before Sumerians," claims Marco Merlini, head of the department of archeology at the University of Sibiu,Romania and director of the Institute for Archeomitology in Rome.

"The system of writing that developed in prehistorical Macedonia dates some 2000 years before it apeared in Egyptian and Sumerian writings," argues Dr. Marco Merlini - an expert of Rock Art. Scientists are unanimous in the assessment - Rock Art is Macedonias personal ID that proudly identifies it's culture and history in the scientific world.

"Macedonia became a kind of Jerusalem for prehistoric Rock Art and not only in Europe but generally," conclude Duško Aleksovski - Rock Art professor at 'Gotse Delchev' University in Štip.

Although that in the 70's of the last century the Macedonian Rock Art had certain dificulties of gaining the recognition in the scientific circles, the arguments of around 1million and 30 thousand drawings and photographs made at 30 sites in Macedonia has won any skepticism. Now they're part of the teaching research program at the 'Goce Delchev' University.

Trajkovski vasil illov is not to be beleived in the scientific community as he makes wild statememts that aren't cooberated.Yes he is on to something it's called the laughing stock of the so called macedonian scientific community.Nothing he says is true as he has no cooberation.Give ne a break he says he has found 70,000 year old macedonian writing.He is a joke in the scientific community.Someone said he doesn't check his email i have tried to contact him since 2002 he had a u-net account with some uni??he said it was his direct contact email.I had something really vital to give him.He never answered back after numeorus contacts.Even open invitations to come on the MTO forum to tell us more about his findings.THe man is not approachable & not transparent.You could do me the honour of calling him a liar.Based on what he's found it's just wild speculation.
Also for your information all the other so called professors who don't cooberate their findings are on the same boat as illov.I though perhaps if illov would come on these forum threads eg could be on their findings & you get someone like Senior admin sg SOM to question him & as well as other member imput we could have some sort of cooberation.BUt No we don't have it.The jury is still out.
No SOM i knocked myself out long time ago when you taught us not to support some of these "chalattans".Illov is no exception.

The history of rock art in Macedonia is indeed rich. The problem I have is when certain people make claims that they don't corroborate.

In there he says:
______________________________________________
The Danube script appeared in south-east Europe around 5300 BC, some two thousand years earlier than any other known writing. It originally appeared in the central Balkan area and developed locally.

It quickly spread to the Danube valley, southern Hungary, Macedonia, Transylvania, and northern Greece.

It flourished up to about 3500 BC, when a social upheaval occurred: according to some, there was an invasion of new populations, whilst others hypothesise the emergence of new elite (Fig. 3)

By the way, the above guy is semi-decent. He's not rubbish, but doesn't have the profile of a proper scientist either (as far as one can understand from his messy CV). For instance, the above article (though in English) is from a... Slovenian scientific journal.
