Epirus New (epirus Nova) – Dortoirim province based in Dyrahon (Durres). The northern part of the ancient Epirus, who in 148. BC entered within the province of Macedonia, in late antiquity (at the time of Constantine) is separated as a separate province within the framework of the Diecesis Macedonia: the territories of present-day medium and southern Albania, along with the southwestern parts of the Republic of Macedonia and the areas of Debar, Struga and the Ohrid. The border between Macedonia and New Epirus in the Republic of Macedonia stretched for 13 Roman miles (20 km) east of the city of Lychnidus on the enforced road, on the tuttle (resen), and perhaps the Fortress Petrin Tower, with. Petrino. Important provincial cities were Lychnid, Dyrahy, Scampa, Apollonia, Billis, Amanty and Auton. Lit.: J. SASSEL, EPIRIS, Tabula empires novels, K34, Lyubljanna 1976, 52; C.
