The book represents results of a research, which was carried out over 20 years. The book is a commentary to the short Illyrian History of the Greek historian of the 2nd century AD, Appian from Alexandria. It deals with important chapters from the ancient history of the eastern Alpine and Adriatic regions as well as the western Balkans. Illyricum equals more or less the western Balkans, and its history has always been complex and problematic, often obscure. The monograph offers an updated survey of the history of Illyricum in the Hellenistic and early Roman periods.
