Historia Redakto

Gjatë dekadave të para të shekullit të 14-të, shqiptarët u vendosën në rajonin e Pogonit dhe prezenca e tyre vërehet përmes disa emrave të fshatrave të tilla si Delvinaq.[2] Ata fshatarë shqiptarë që u vendosën në pjesën jugore të Pogonit (në anën e Greqisë të sotme) u asimiluan gradualisht nga elementi greke.[2] Në fund të shekullit të 17-të, udhëtari osman Evlia Çelebi kaloi nëpër Delvinaq duke vërejtur se vendbanimi ishte "i begatë" dhe gjendet në rajonin Pogon, "i banuar nga kaurë (të pafe) shqiptarë" dhe fshati kishte 400 shtëpi, 6000 vreshta, 40-50 dyqane, 10 kisha dhe 3 hane.[3][4] Çelebi gjithashtu vuri në dukje se Delvinaqi ishte një "has" (pronë të ardhurash) i një admirali osman dhe administrohej nga një "vojvodë", me fshatin "e çliruar nga tatimet dhe ndërhyrjet e shtetit".[3] Në fillim të shekullit të 19-të, udhëtarët perëndimorë që kalonin nëpër rajon mendonin se prej Delvinaqit dhe duke shkuar në veri, ata po hynin në një vend tjetër, ndonëse kufijtë politikë nuk ekzistonin gjatë asaj kohe.[5] Një udhëtar britanik, John Hobhouse, vërejti se një "nocion mbizotëronte në mesin e popullit të vendit, se Shqipëria, ashtu siç quhet, ose të paktën, vendi amë i shqiptarëve, fillon nga qyteti Delvinaq...".[5]

"By the beginning of the nineteenth century and later on, the British, French and [183] Austrian travellers who visited Lunxhëri, most of them arriving from Ioannina, described the Lunxhots as Albanian-speaking Orthodox Christians, and had the feeling that, starting north of Delvinaki, they were entering another country, although the political border did not exist at the time. Greek was not spoken as it was further south; there was a change in the way of life and manners of the peasants. As one traveller reported Hobhouse 1813:... Indeed you should be informed, that a notion prevails amongst the people of the country, that Albania, properly so called, or at least, the native country of the Albanians, begins from the town of Delvinaki; but never being able, as I have before hinted, to learn where the line of boundary is to be traced, I shall content myself with noticing the distinction in the above cursory manner."
