Dardania

[Wizz]

In 1854, Johann Georg von Hahn was the first to propose that the names Dardanoi and Dardania were related to the Albanian word dardhë ("pear, pear-tree"), stemming from Proto-Albanian *dardā, itself a derivative of derdh, "to tip out, pour", or *derda in Proto-Albanian.[15]

A common Albanian toponym with the same root is Dardha, found in various parts of Albania, including Dardha in Berat, Dardha in Korça, Dardha in Librazhd, Dardha in Puka, Dardhas in Pogradec, Dardhaj in Mirdita, and Dardhës in Përmet. Dardha in Puka is recorded as Darda in a 1671 ecclesiastical report and on a 1688 map by a Venetian cartographer. Dardha is also the name of an Albanian tribe in the northern part of the District of Dibra.[16]

The name Bardylis is considered to be connected with the Albanian adjective i bardhë "white", ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰór(h₁)ǵos < *bʰreh₁ǵ- ("to gleam, shine"). It has been associated to the Messapic names Barzidihi, Barduli and Barletta.[7][8][9][10] The explanation of the name Bardylis as a combination of Albanian i bardhë and yll "star" is considered a folk etymology.[11] German linguist Paul Kretschmer argues that the name Bardylis is connected with the Messapic word "bardulos", which according to him means "grey".[12]
