Koman

Koman lies in the mountains of northern Albania, above the valley of the Drin. On nearby Dalmacë hill stood a fortified settlement with churches and an extensive burial ground. Its graves, dating chiefly from the sixth to the eighth centuries, contain ornaments and other objects characteristic of the Komani-Kruja culture. Related cemeteries across northern and central Albania bear witness to communities that lived here between late antiquity and the Middle Ages.
