Another similar case when territories are defined by the name of a man can only be in the case of America. But it also happens with our national hero Gjergj Kastriot Skanderbeg on this map of 1455, dedicated to Pope Nicholas V, in which the Balkan territory faces the Scandrebeco landmark. "The discovery of this map has been one of the luckiest things that happened to me in my life. It is a toponym in the heart of the southern Balkans where in the center of this space between the Adriatic Sea and the Aegean Sea lies the Scandrebeco landmark," says Artan Shkreli , architect, researcher of Cartography of the Middle Ages. It is an extraordinary case where the name of a territory is identified by the name of a figure that is identified with his people and the metropolitan fears of Europe of that time. "The map was made in 455 by Bartolomeo Pareto, a cartographer who supplied the Vatican with geographic maps. It was a close man of Pope Nicholas V," said Artan Shkrel
