Basilica and baptistry. Ulpiana, old Roman city ruins, outside of Prishtiné, 17.shtator.2017.

Ulpiana, a Roman crossroads on the Illyrian plains rebuilt by Emperor Justinian (most likely an Illyrian) after the earthquake of 518.

Christian Illyria was already established in present day Kosovo near Prishtina. The church ruins lay under Serbian cornfields for centuries, some still do, but the Illyrians weren't Slavs. Slavs came later and may have mixed with Illyrian peoples.
