RESTORATION OF ARCHITECTURAL MONUMENTS ALBANIAN LEGISLATION ON THEIR NOMINATION, PROTECTION AND VALUATION

Lida MIRAJ, 2011

• Nomination, Protection and Valuation of Cultural Monuments in Albania, as Historical and Cultural Testimonies, dates in the first half of Twentieth Century.

• With the independence of Albania after five centuries of Ottoman occupation, in 28 of November, 1912 the difficult political situation in the country was not stabilized, although the creation of an Albanian nation was acknowledged by the “Ambassadors’ Conference” in London on December 20 of the same year.

• The Peace Treaty of London at the end of the First Balkan War (The First Balkan War began on October 8, 1912) had left the status of Albania and the Aegean Islands to the decision of the great powers.

• The Second Balkan War began on night of June 29/30, 1913, when King Ferdinand of Bulgaria ordered his troops to attack Serbian and Greek forces in Macedonia.

• The Conference of London, led by the British Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sir

Edward Grey, with the participation of the United Kingdom, Austria-Hungary, Germany, Italy, France, and Russia, was held on July 29, 1913, decided to reduce borders of Albanian state, to create “an independent sovereign Principality,” where the powers should guarantee her neutrality.

• The Albanian boundaries were announced at Florence in December 1913. It left many Albanians south of the border and other Albanian-speakers were left in Montenegro and Serbia. In November 1913 the Great Powers had arranged that it should have a new monarch, the German protestant, Prince Wilhelm of Weid, as the ruler of the new state.

• The World War I (1914-1918) and the continuing insurrections, however, created further attempts at direct intervention and partition by Greece, Austria and Italy. Italians under the pretext of the “dangerous” situation created in Vlora by a Greek army, that occupied South Albania, assumed control of the region.

• During the First World War, the Austrian scholars, Camillo Praschniker and Arnold Schober, did some interesting archaeological research and published a book describing their findings.

• After the First World War (November 11th, 1918), the Albanian borders were defined and agreed by the Ambassadors’ Conference in Versailles in January 18th, 1919 and January 13th, 1920. In 9 November 1921 the Conference of Ambassadors in Paris approved the borders of Albania. In December 1921 Albania had the new government, and the Prime Minister of Albania was first Hasan Prishtina and changed in December 2nd, 1922 with Ahmet bej Zogu. This created a relatively stable situation with regards to Albania’s relations with its neighbors.

• On November 4, 1922 Eugène Pittard (1867-) from Geneva (36 Chemin des Cottages) wrote a letter to the Albanian Minister of Foreign Affairs requesting the permission to conduct archaeological and ethnographic research. (Six years before this request, he had published a study of the anthropology of the Balkans, and in 1926 he presented a paper at the International Congress of Anthropology on analyses of 58 crania from Albania.)

• Justin Godart, from the ‘Chambre des Dèputès’ in Paris, was a

French scholar with an interest in Albanian archaeology. After the creation of Albanian State in 1920, he presented a project for archaeological excavations and research.

• On April, 1923 Albanian Parliament decided to issue a permit for archaeological excavations in Apollonia and, this was the first one issued by Albanian Government. French Government decided to organise an archaeological mission.

• Leon Rey was the French archaeologist who directed archaeological excavations in Apollonia for 16 years (1923-1939).

Rey was the first foreign archaeologist to work in Albania after the First World War. After having worked in the prehistory with the French archaeological service at Thessalonika during the war, he was invited by the French humanitarian and politician, Justin Godart, to direct an archaeological mission. Initially Rey worked in a number of places in the country, eventually settling on a long-term excavation at Apollonia, the great classical city on the coast.Rey was conscientious about publishing his work, creating a small journal to show the results of his own work and Albanian cultural matters in general. This material provides a fascinating glimpse of how an interwar archaeological mission worked. Unlike Butrint, the ruins of Apollonia had been used as a quarry for centuries, not the least by the Pashas of Berat. But during 14 seasons Rey excavated residential, defensive, religious and public structures; most famously a stoa with a series of fine Roman statues. Technically, Rey’s excavations were typical of the time and similar to those of Ugolini, though the latter knew better how to dress a site for fine photographs.

Shtyllas and Apollonia

On the Italian side there was a long discussion and correspondence took place between the head of the Levante Scientific Mission and the director of the National Archaeological Museum of Rome, Roberto Paribeni, the head of the Italian Legation of Durres, Marchese Carlo Durazzo and Mussolini himself regarding the creation of an Italian Archaeological Mission in Albania. On May, 1926, it was approved the agreement for archaeological excavations by Italian Mission in Albania. The director of the Mission was named Luigi Maria Ugolini. The tract of the friendship between Italy and Albania began at the end of 1925 and was in effect in September, being concluded only on November 27, 1926Both Archaeological Missions: French and Italian continued the excavations in Apollonia and Butrint. Rey discovered in Apollonia the monument of Agonothetes, some sculptures and excavated in the necropolis as well. Ugolini excavated at Phoinike and later in Butrint where discovered the theatre, the baptistery, the basilica, etc. Other directors of Italian Archaeological Mission that continued the excavations in Butrint, were Pirro Marconi and Domenico Mustilli.

• Beginning on April 7, 1939, with the first day of the Italian invasion, Albania was involved in the Second World War. In the same day Zogu left Albania and went to London. On April 8 Tirana was occupied from Italian army. After that were closed totally both French and Italian Archaeological Missions in Albania, although French Mission had already almost closed since 1938. The hiatus in archaeological research lasted a year.

• On July 19, 1940 the Albanian Ministry of Education, asked for the Italian specialists as advisers in the office of “Archeologia e Belle Arti”, one, Igino Epicoco for “Belle Arti” and the other, Claudio Sestieri, for Archaeology, (Ispettore nel ruolo delle Antichità e Belle Arti attualmente presso il Museo Nazionale di Napoli). After that both Igino Epicoco and Claudio Sestieri lived in Tirana attached in the Minisry of Education. In Naples they organized an exhibition about Albania that was called “Oltre Mare”.

• The Albanian Ministry of Education authorized the Italian Consulting specialist for Archaeology, Arts and Libraries, Prof. P. C. Sestieri, to go to Byllis to excavate in May 1942.

• Italian Archaeological Mission continued excavations in Butrint, in 1942-43 under Umberto Marchetti. The Italian surrender of September 1943 effectively ended all Italian concern with Butrint and with the archaeology of Albania.

• As the leaders of the largest foreign archaeological projects in interwar Albania it is inevitable that Ugolini and Rey should be contrasted together. Indeed, at the time Ugolini at least made conscious comparisons between his work and that of the French Mission, seeing the French as academic and political rivals. For his part Rey was pragmatic and calm about the political situation, highlighting the differences between the publicity-conscious and dynamic Ugolini and himself as the more established scholar. Nevertheless, he was quite aware of the motivations behind the Italian presence and chose not to inflame Italian suspicions by entering into any form of dispute.

• The 29 November 1944, the Liberation day of Albania, opened the new chapter in the long history of this country, the period of communism or the so called ‘proletarian dictatorship’ and, archaeology came to be organized in a very different way.

The Theater

The visit of Ahmet Zogu’s family in Butrint, 1930

The theatre at Butrint is constructed against the slope of the acropolis hill facing out over the Vivari Channel. Making use of the natural incline of the hill offered a practical solution for the seating area and is a common feature in ancient Greek theatres. The earliest theatre is likely to have been quite small. This was enlarged in the 3rd century BC and the seating area (cavea) extended right up next to the treasury building. Six narrow staircases divide the semi-circular auditorium into ‘wedges’ for easy access. Seating arrangements were organised hierarchically, with the seats closest to the stage reserved for the most prominent members of the city. At Butrint the first real row of seats has footrests and is decorated with handsome lion’s feet, whereas further back the seats are plain blocks.

Spring 1928, Excavations in the Theater of Butrint and the discover of 5 marble sculptures

The largest of Ugolini’s excavations at Butrint was the clearance of the theatre, part of the shrine of Asclepius, between 1928 and 1931. When

Ugolini began working here there were merely the remains of a number of walls projecting above the surface, and his first assumption was that the

remains belonged to a basilica. Only in 1929, when the seats of the cavea were discovered, did the true identity of the structure become clear.

The first museum at Butrint was built in the late1930s by the Italian Archaeological Mission.

The intention was to house the finds from the extensive excavations.The original museum was located within the reconstructed castle on the Acropolis of

Butrint. The museum was essentially organised around two spaces: marble finds (statues, inscriptions, etc) were displayed in the courtyard, with smaller finds in an

adjoining room.

THE PERIOD AFTER THE SECOND WORLD WAR

• AFTER THE SECOND WORLD WAR PROTECTION OF MONUMENTS WERE UNDER THE INSTITUTE OF SCIENCES AND LATER, BEGINNING IN THE YEAR 1957, IN THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF TIRANA.

• THE SPECIALISTS NAMED THE ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE MONUMENTS UNDER THE TARGET “MONUMENT”.

• THE FIRST LIST OF MONUMENTS, WITHIN THE BORDERS OF ALBANIAN STATE, DATES IN 1948.

• EACH ARCHITECTURAL VALUE, BOTH HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL, WAS SELECTED AND NAMED, AS THE POTENTIAL TO BE PROTECTED AND NO OTHER CRITERIA WAS SELECTED.

• THE CRITERIA OF THE CLASSIFICATION, SELECTION AND PROTECTION OF MONUMENTS IN ALBANIAN REALITY, HAVE THEIR EVOLUTION WITH THE PASS OF TIME, AND ARE:

At Apollonia a major programme was jointly directed by Blavatski and Hasan Ceka, with the participation of around 200 specialists, students and workmen. At the classical site of Oricum, the team was directed by Tatania V. Blavatskaja (Blavatski’s wife) and Dhimosten Budina. However,

the most ambitious element in this programme was the creation of an archaeological map of Albania; for which wide-ranging landscape surveys recording the monuments and sites were

undertaken.

Following the war, Butrint lay abandoned until the late 1950s; the museum was closed and photographs show the site as overgrown.

However, from 1956 Butrint formed an integral part of the new archaeology in Albania.

1. BOTH HISTORICAL – CULTURAL VALUES, ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT AND COMPLEMENTED POINTS IN THE DEFINITION OF ‘MONUMENTS’.

• HISTORICAL VALUES OF COURSE ARE THE FIRST TO PRECISE AN ARCHITECTURAL OBJECT AS A ‘MONUMENT’.

• EACH HISTORICAL PERIOD HAS SPECIFIC ARCHITECTURAL STYLES AND ARCHITECTURAL DEVELOPMENT AND SOME OF THE FACTORS INDICATING IN THE PARTICULARITIES OF CONSTRUCTIONS ARE.

• THE CARACTER OF THE SOCIETY • THE LEVEL OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE SOCIETY

• THE CONTEXT OF LIFE

• OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES

NOMINATION OF THE ARCHITECTURAL MONUMENTS AND THE LEGISLATION OF THEIR PROTECTION

• BEING UNDER A CONSTRUCTION DEVELOPMENT, IS DANGEROUS FOR THE ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO NAME THESE VALUES IN THE LIST OF MONUMENTS, OTHERWISE THEY ARE NOT UNDER PROTECTION. THE SELECTION NEEDS TO BE ONLY PROFESSIONAL.

• THE VALUETION OF THE MONUMENTS INCLUDES THE NOMINATION OF ARCHITECTURAL VALUES AND THE HISTORICAL-CULTURAL VALUES.

• ACTUALLY IN ALBANIA THIS EXPERIENCE DATED ONLY AFTER THE END OF THE WORLD WAR II. IN THE VERY BEGINNING WAS A SMALL NUMBER OF PROFESSIONALS, MOSTLY OF THEM WERE WELL EDUCATED ABROAD.

NOMINATION OF ARCHITECTURAL MONUMENTS AND THE LEGISLATION OF THEIR PROTECTION

• THE NOMINATION OF AN ARCHITECTURAL MONUMENT IS IMPORTANT, BECAUSE IT GIVES TO AN ARCHITECTURAL VALUE THE IMPORTANCE OF HISTORICAL DOCUMENT. THIS MAKES POSSIBLE TO PRECISE SOME PARTICOLARITIES OF THE SICIETY IN THE CERTAN PERIOD.

• THE CULTURAL VALUE IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE:1. ITS OWN ARTISTIC AND CREATIVE VALUE2. THE HISTORICAL TESTIMONY CONNECTED WITH THE PERIOD WHEN THE ARTISTIC CREATIVITY WAS DEVELOPED.

• IN THE NOMINATION: CULTURAL-HISTORICAL, THEY ARE BOTH IMPORTANT. SOME SCHOLARS MENTION THE FIRST AND SOME THE SECOND.

Enver Hoxha’s post-war communist regime in Albania had close ties with Stalin’s Soviet Union. However, with Stalin’s death, Hoxha began to suspect the Soviet leadership of betraying the ideals of Leninism. In May 1959, in an effort to heal the developing rift, Hoxha invited Nikita Khrushchev and his defence minister, Marshal Malinovski, to visit Albania. In keeping with Hoxha’s interest in Albanian history, the Soviet leader was taken to Apollonia and to Butrint.The preparations and security measures were drastic. A new road was constructed from Saranda to Butrint – the first modern road covering this 20 km distance – to facilitate Khrushchev’s journey. At Butrint itself, the beehives of the site custodian were burnt and the snakes inhabiting the dense vegetation were poisoned lest they injure the Soviet leader. Descriptions say that dead snakes filled the theatre and hung from statues. Khrushchev seems not to have noticed the snakes.

2. Typological Criteria• The protection of the monuments, based on this

criteria, has to be based on the examples of typological development of architectural heritage.

• The typological criteria is always based on the professionalism of experts in the nomination of the monuments.

• In European practice it is a long experience on the determination of the typology, according to the duty of nomination and, was not always active.

• So the European experience on the typological criteria is mostly based on the architectural values, compare to the best examples.


• Some simple examples with important typological values, but sometimes as the beginning of a specific development of a particular type, are left outside the nomination.

• The respect of the Typological Criteria might gather important data on the development of a particular architectural type in different periods.

• The equality of the valuation for all types of constructions might be possible to include them in the list of the Protected Monuments.

• Albanian Scholars were very keen in the way of taking in consideration architectural values, folklore and other inherited values.


• Other countries were with earlier experiences on the protection of inherited values.

• Albania in 1961 approved the law of the Protection of Museum-Cities. Two very important museum-cities were the first to enter in the list: Berat and Gjirokastra.

3. The Criteria of Authenticity• This very important criteria is that the architectural object has

to be protected partly or entirely, mostly based on the original values.

• This is the main criteria of UNESCO to declare the Cultural Heritage Values as the World Values.


4. The Criteria of the existed technical situation of the monument

• This criteria is a secondary one.• This has the privilege of selection of other examples of the same typology, of

course selecting those in better technical situation.

5. The Criteria of the Environment around the Monument

• This Criteria has an important role in the nomination of Architectural Values.• The Architectural Monument is connected with the environment and everything

around has to be valuated.

6. The Criteria of Comparison with other Architectural Monuments dated in the same period.

• This is a very important Criteria


• Each period has the particular Architectural Values, and the criteria of valuation is not only on the time when an architectural object was constructed.

• Of course the limited number of antique monuments need a particular care. These rare monuments in general are under protection and restoration works.

• All the above criteria, in the nomination of an architectural object as a monument, act together and have their own particular indication on the decision.

• So all the criteria have had their values on different types of architectural values.


• For the City Walls, generally preserved mostly in ruins, the criteria of historical value have been always very important.

• This criteria has conditioned the nomination as monuments of fortification walls during centuries, from prehistory to the XIX century. In the list of monuments they are under the State Law protection.

Instituti i Monumenteve të Kulturës (IMK) është institucion shkencor buxhetor, në varësi të Ministrisë së Turizmit, Kulturës, Rinisë dhe Sporteve. Veprimtaria e IMK, mbështetet në Ligjin nr. 9048. dt. 07.04.2003, "Për trashëgiminë kulturore", si dhe në gjithë legjislacionin shqiptar në fuqi. IMK është themeluar në vitin 1965 mbi bazën e sektorit të Restaurimit të Grupit të Kulturës Materiale pranë Universitetit të Tiranës, i cili përkujdesej për mirëmbajtjen e monumenteve të kulturës para krijimit të IMK, sipas Vendimit Nº 67, datë 15/03/1965 të Këshillit të Ministrave.

Detyra themelore e IMK, është mbrojtja, restaurimi dhe rijetësimi i monumenteve kulturore-historike të trashëguara. IMK ndërton punën kërkimore-studimore, ndjek zbatimin e legjislacionit në fushën e monumenteve të kulturës, kryen veprime konkrete mbi monumentet e paluajtshme dhe të luajtshme që janë pjesë tërësore e tyre, në të gjithë territorin e Republikës së Shqipërisë, bën kualifikimin e kuadrit, autorizon, përcakton kriteret e restaurimit dhe merr të gjitha masat që sigurojnë gjurmimin, evidentimin e monumenteve, mbrojtjen, restaurimin shkencor dhe dokumentimin e plotë të tyre. IMK aktivitetin e vet e kryen në bashkëpunim me Drejtoritë Rajonale të Monumenteve të Kulturës në qarqet e ndryshme të vendit.
