A statement by a man who claims there once was an Albania, at the head of his own area, is undermined by objections ETE Today's Tepelenë is the place that gave its name to a city, a region, and a local authority. In the historical memory of Albanians, Tepelenë is linked to well-known figures and to events that influenced the formation of national identity. The author raises questions about the historical links between Greece and Tepelenë, about the different interpretations given to the past, and about the way history is used in current debates. This is treated in an essayistic and polemical manner, with references to museums, institutions, and local representatives.
