FROM THE EDITOR
Mark Thomas
mark.thomas@sibenik-times.com
Welcome to our beautiful city and to the
sixteenth edition of the second season
of “The Sibenik Times”. I think this recent
heat wave has gone to my head; I’m crazy
from the heat. I can’t seem to concentrate
on anything and the only respite is driving
around in the car with the air-conditioning
on full blast, which is probably about as he-
althy as swine flu. The humidity has been
so high recently that just the action of bre-
athing leaves you dripping in sweat. As the
temperatures hit the mid to high thirties
you can almost hear the polar icecap crac-
king away and melting. Always at around
this time of the year my mind plays tricks
one me and I have a few ideas. I call these
ideas “summer silliness” because most of
these are impractical or impossible. Firstly I
always get a desire to buy a small boat and
sail around the nearby islands. Actually this
craving normally lasts for a couple of days
before I come to my senses. Apart from the
fact that I know absolutely nothing about
boats, sailing or in fact the sea, the sheer
fact that I get seasick gives me plenty of re-
asons not to buy a boat. And the financial
burden, it’s like a bottomless well. I was on-
ce told by a local that a man is truly happy
twice in his life. Firstly when he buys his first
boat and secondly when he sells the same
boat. I can see the logic in that. Funnily eno-
ugh my desire to have a boat quickly disa-
ppears in the winter. Another of my “sum-
mer silliness” is to grow grapes and produce
my own wine. I worked in the wine industry
in London for many years and my love of
fine wines and their production remains
strong. Maybe this idea is not so mad after
all, but the simple fact that I don’t have any
land would probably prohibit this plan. And
even if I filled my entire garden with vines
I’d probably only have enough to produce
half a bottle of wine, another impractical
idea, and another one that fades through
the cold winter when I think about all the
work involved to look after a vineyard.
My summer madness continues with a
yearning to sleep. Whether it’s the heat
draining my energy or the simple fact that
it just feels like the right thing to do in the
afternoon I’m not sure. It’s said that Ernest
Hemingway spent most of his days sleeping
during his twenty year stay on the island of
Cuba. And that he wrote “Old man and the
sea” and “For who the bell tolls” though the
night, I’m guessing it was cooler and he co-
uld think. Either that or he was so drunk on
cocktails through the day that all he could
do was sleep. Yet again, during the shorter
winter days this ache goes away.

MINISTER OF TOURISM CLAIMS TOURISM
SEASON IS OFF TO A GOOD START
Minister of Tourism Damir Bajs said last week
the number of tourist overnights had declined by
six per cent in June compared to the same month
in 2008. Bajs added that the number of domestic
tourists’ overnights had increased by one per cent
in June compared to the same period in 2008. Bajs
believes the start of the summer tourist season
has been unexpectedly good, Tportal website has
reported. Bajs said: “The most-important tourism
months are ahead of us. Looking at the numbers,
we can be less concerned than our competition.
We can cure our problems with an aspirin, honey
and tea, whereas other tourism countries need
to go in for a serious examination.” In the first
six months of 2009, the number of foreign-tou-
rist overnights declined by seven percent, while
the total number of overnights dropped by three
per cent.
Croatia holidaymakers ‘should
explore coast by boat’
People enjoying a villa holiday in Croatia may
enjoy travelling by boat to the country’s seaside
towns and islands during their stay. Luxury travel
blog Paradizo suggested that the “charming port
town” of Split is worth a visit, as holidaymakers can
explore its “labyrinthine network of cobblestone
streets” and Roman walls. The beaches of Korcula,
meanwhile, were described as “dreamy”, while the
“sparkling island” of Cres is also worth taking in.
Last month, Independent writer Frank Partridge
wrote that people staying on Cres during their Cro-
atia holiday may be able to sport a griffon vulture,
as a colony of endangered birds is being protected
on the island. He added that “adventurous” holi-
daymakers could have a “field day” on a visit to the
island, as it has a large freshwater lake and plenty
of trails for hikers and bird-watching enthusiasts.
Giorgio Armani visits Croatia
Well-known Italian fashion de-
signer Giorgio Armani arrived last
Sunday in Split. Armani came from
Milan in a Net-Jets Air plane. The
firm caters to wealthy people in the
world of fashion. Armani is repor-
tedly planning to cruise along the
Dalmatian coast for a few days. The
daily 24 sata has reported he said
he had always wanted to visit Split.
Armani added: “For a long time, I
have wanted to see this part of the
Adriatic because I have heard so
many wonderful stories about it. I
just want to enjoy cruising and hope
I will also get some new inspiration
for my autumn collection.” Armani is
planning to visit the islands of Brac,
Hvar and Korcula and the cities of
Dubrovnik and Cavtat in southern
Croatia on his 70-metre-long yacht.
After that, he will rest in Sardinia in
one of his houses.
Croatia holiday ‘can save travellers money’
Going on holiday to Croatia can save travellers money, according to Jonathan Mitc-
ham, principle researcher for Which? Holiday. The consumer campaign group represen-
tative said that Britons can find good vacation deals in this country and other nations
that do not use the euro currency, due to the current exchange rate. Offering advice on
how to secure good-priced holiday deals to places such as Croatia, Mr Mitcham advised
people to avoid peak travel seasons like the school-holiday periods. Taking flights at
unsociable hours or midweek can also reduce the cost of a trip, he added. “Either book
early - especially if booking as a family - or take a gamble and try a last-minute booking
if you’re flexible about the type of accommodation you may get,” the expert explained.
Croatia’s tourism minister Damir Bajs has suggested this year that late bookings will be
crucial to the success of his country’s tourism season in 2009, although he indicated to
Reuters that people are staying for longer on their Croatia holidays.

und the county
Aro
In the interior of the Sibe-
nik- Knin County there are fi-
ve towns and fourteen borou-
ghs of differing size and with
varying populations. Among
them lies the Borough of Bilice
which is located 3 kilometres
from the City of Sibenik. The
Borough of Bilice falls among
one of the smallest boroughs
with only 25,66 kilometres
squared which is only 0,86%
of the total surface area of the
entire county. Since 17.12.2002
Bilice has been an independent
and locally governed borough.
According to the latest list of
saturday
july 25th 2009.
population taken in 2001 Bilice
has 662 houses in which 2180
people live. Bilice is situated
on the shores of the Prokljan-
ska Lake which has a surface
area of 11 kilometres squared
and a depth of up to 20 me-
ters. The region doesn’t have
any heavy industry and in fact
the area doesn’t even have an
industrial park which means
that a large area still remains
untouched and intact. It is po-
ssible to reach Bilice via the
sea through the Sibenik Canal
under the Sibenik bridge and
through a beautiful canyon. Bi-
lice was first mentioned in the
10th century during the rule of
Emperor Konstantin Porfiroge-
nit. The Emperor mentioned
the place called “Belitzein” for
which many historians consider
that he was talking about the
current Bilice. In the St. Josip
canal many valuable archaeolo-
gical artefacts have been found
from the time of the Roman
Empire as well as the remains
of a Roman Villa. In addition
to these finds it is also intere-
sting to mention a site that was
found in the region, this dry-
wall building is considered to
bilice
be one of the oldest of its kind
in Southern Europe. Historians
have calculated that the con-
struction is around 900 years
old. Experts have come to the
conclusion that due to several
important factors such as the
interior design, ventilation and
small windows that the buil-
ding was most probably used as
storage for grain. The first con-
crete mention of Bilice comes
from 1298, when the Sibenik
region had its first bishop, and
Bilice fell into the Žažin parish.
It is also a known fact that ma-
ny citizens of Bilice took part in
the Spanish civil war. And af-
ter World War II many citizens
from the region emigrated all
over the world because of lack
of work or problems with the
political situation in the coun-
try. Today the whole area is an
oasis of natural beauties and
well worth a visit if you have
a free day during your stay in
the Sibenik County. As it is on-
ly a short drive from the town
of Sibenik and the resorts of
Vodice and Solaris you can
certainly have a day trip to Bi-
lice and you certainly won’t be
disappointed.

Amazing slice of history in the Sibenik – Knin County
Burnum or Burnum Municipi-
um, an archaeological site, was a
Roman Legion camp and town. It
is located 2.5 km north of Kista-
nje, in inland Dalmatia, Croatia.
Burnum is also popularly called
Hollow Church (Šuplja Crkva) or
Trojan's Town (Trojanov Grad).
The remains include a praeto-
rium and the foundations of
several rooms. Only two of the
original five arches have been
preserved. The Roman writer
Plinius wrote about Burnum, as
"fortress distinguished in wars".
The Pagana chart from the 16th
century presented marked traits
of Burnum as the ancient loca-
lity, but it did not reach arche-
ological interest until the 19th
century, when it occupied the
attention of renowned Croatian
archaeologists, father Lujo Ma-
run and father Frane Bulić. The
first excavations were conducted
by Austrian archeologists. The
Roman military camp Burnum
was situated on the right banks
of the Krka River in the area of
the present day village of Ivo-
ševci. On the location of “The
Empty Church” (Šuplja Crvka)
can be seen today the remnants
of a port which was part of the
saturday
july 25th 2009. sibenik times 5
military camp. The camp was
most probably constructed 33
years before the birth of Jesus
Christ when the XX legion briefly
stayed there. After the battle at
Akcija, 31 years B.C, the XI legion
was stationed at Burnum. Arche-
ological excavations carried out
in the area of the camp revealed
that the camp was built in two
phases. In the first, older phase
a small part was constructed and
then in the second phase the
majority of the work was carri-
ed out. Building was initiated by
the Roman governor for Dalma-
tia Publie Kornelius Dolabela. A
few recovered written items are
evidence on the construction of
the camp. One of these items is
from 51 years after the birth of
Christ and mentions Publie An-
teja Rufa, witnesses of the buil-
ding of the camp 69 years after
the birth of Christ were the XI
legion who left the camp and
transferred to Vespazijan army in
their fight for the emperor. After
the XI legion left Burnum the IV
legion were stationed there and
stayed there from the years 70 to
86. The legions departed when
the Dalmatian province became
“provincial inermis”.

INTERVIEW Trond Anderson

»I’ve been living for

one and a half years
in Primošten and
absolutely I can see
myself living here
permanently in the
future«

People here
welcomed me
with warm words
and open arms
••Originally you are from Oslo in Norway,
how did you end up in Primošten?
In 2006 I was in Croatia on vacation
and I started looking for a home outside of
Norway. I had already been to Provence in
France, Italy and Brussels looking for a pla-
ce. In fact I lived for one year in Brussels so
maybe that was top of my list until I came
to Primošten. Finally I decided on Primošten
and in fact it was the last apartment I saw.
I just had a gut feeling in my stomach that
this was the apartment and the destination
for me. I knew that this was the place for me.
You know you just have a feeling that this is
the right place for you to be, as if your soul
is talking to you.
••What do you miss about Norway?
It would be much easier to answer this
question with what I like about Croatia.
From Norway maybe I miss some traditio-
nal food that I enjoyed and sometimes long
for. Apart from food I would have to say ski-
ing, although you can ski in Croatia, I miss
the slopes of Norway. I certainly don’t miss
the climate from Norway. Today its 16ºc in
Oslo and 25ºc in Primošten, there is really no
comparison. I love living close to the sea here
and swimming up until October. The climate
is really perfect for me. Don’t get me wrong
the summers in Norway can be spectacular
and when the sun is shining its one of the
most beautiful places in the whole world.
The problem is that one day can be 30ºc and
the next can drop to 14 or 15°c and rainy.
••How often do you go back to Norway?
I always go back to Oslo over the Chris-
tmas period. During the year that I’ve been
living permanently in Primošten I think that
I’ve actually been back four times. I paln on
going back in the near future again for a
holiday.
••How have you been spending your time
in Primošten?
I am spending a lot of my time, in fact
most of my days, writing my second book.
In fact one of the reasons that I bought a pla-
ce here was that it gives me plenty of time
and the right environment to write. In the
summer time there are a lot of tourists in
Primošten so I tend to concentrate more in
the winter. I’m writing my second book abo-
ut self development in crisis in life. In 2004
a brain tumour was found in my head and
after the surgery I was left 75% blind. I was
working before with crisis management in
Scandinavia with Scandinavian Airlines for
some years. Before that I used to work as a
chief cabin attendant with the same com-
pany.
••You are also a keen photographer?
Exactly, I have an exhibition in restaurant
Amfora in Primošten and to my surprise I’ve
saturday
july 25th 2009. sibenik times 7
already sold six photos. I’ve been to various
photography courses in Norway and in Scilly
with famous photographers. My photos are
a combination of different things but I try to
take photos that provoke feelings in people. I
like when people stop and think when they
see my photos. I tend to take photos in black
and white and I try to focus that the photos
tell a story. One world famous photographer
from Great Britain once told me that the art
of taking a photo is to feel and not to see. To
manage to do things that are difficult or as
some people say are impossible spurs me on.
When a crisis comes into your life I believe
that you have more power than you had be-
fore, anything is possible. I think that people
can do more than they imagine if they really
try to work hard and put their minds to it.
The photos are from Croatia, Norway and
Australia, and I have 16 pictures all together.
••How good is your Croatian?
I really don’t speak too much Croatian
unfortunately. I am spending lots of time
writing and don’t have time to learn the
language. Every day I start writing at nine
o’clock and keep writing for at least eight ho-
urs. The book is almost ready and hopefully
will be published in August or September. I
understand that it’s a very difficult langua-
ge but I’ve managed to pick up a few of the
basics and can understand a little when the
locals speak.
••How have you been accepted by the
local community in Primošten?
The people of Primošten are wonderful,
really superb. I’ve been totally accepted and
really feel a part of the local community. I
tend to go to one café and the locals have
got used to me sitting there and reading my
manuscript. My neighbour is great, and al-
though she doesn’t speak any English we ha-
ve conversations and she brings me special
meals that she’s prepared. Truly wonderful
people!
••What was a cultural shock for you
when you came to live in Croatia?
The shock was that the people were
so nice towards me. You could say it was
a positive cultural shock. They welcomed
me with warm words and open arms. They
treated me so nice when I entered the co-
mmunity.
••What are your plans for the future?
I will go home to Norway on vacation in
the near future, so I’m looking forward to
that. I’m hoping to get some more time to
do some more photography in the future as I
really enjoy that. I’ve been living for one and
a half years in Primošten and absolutely I can
see myself living here permanently in the
future. And maybe I’ll write another book
in the future.

Fortress
of Knin
Knin was also the capital of
the Kingdom of Croatia around
1080 during the rule of King
Dmitar Zvonimir. Construction
of the fortress begun in 9th cen-
tury, at the time of establishing
of Old Croatian state. Some Cro-
atian Kings had temporary resi-
dence in Knin, but King Dmitar
Zvonimir resided there perma-
nently. Fortress is divided into
5 parts that are interconnected.
These are: Donji grad (Lower
Town), Srednji grad (Midd-
le Town), Gornji grad (Upper
Town) or Kaštel Knin, Kaštel
lab or Bandijera, and Južni grad
(Southern Town) or Belveder
station. The fortress is located
at 345 m above sea-level and
at 100 m above city of Knin. It
is 470 m long and 100 wide at
the widest part. Defence walls,
which surround the fortress
from all sides and are almost 2
km long, rise partially up to 20
m. The fortress of Knin is one of
the largest Croatian fortification
monuments and it is the second
military fortification in Europe,
extremely indented and pre-
served as a whole. It is a living
cultural monument, having a
museum, exhibition areas and a
restaurant and it certainly repre-
sents a main brand of cultural
tourism at this side of river Krka.
This heritage has led to Knin so-
metimes being known as the city
of Croatian kings or Zvonimir's
city (Zvonimirov grad). Between
the 10th and the 13th century,
Knin was a notable military fort.
The huge 10th century medieval
fortress on Mt. Spas dominates
the centre of town, and its pre-
sent aspect dates back to the
beginning of the 18th century.

It is one of the largest fortifica-
tion buildings in Dalmatia and is
divided into the upper, medium
and lower town, connected by
drawbridges. Its strategic posi-
tion played an important role in
many wars and power changes
— beginning with the Croatian
rulers, then Kingdom of Hun-
gary, the Venetians, Turks, to the
Austrians and the French. On
May 29, 1522, the fort of Knin
fell to the Ottoman Empire, and
Croatian folk massively left the
town. The town was populated
with Serb refugees by the Otto-
mans. Century and a half later,
on September 11, 1688, it was
captured by the Venetian Repu-
blic. Subsequently, the Croatian
population partially returned
and the Franciscans built a mo-
nastery and a church there in
1708. Knin passed on to the Ha-
bsburgs together with Dalmatia
in 1797 according to the Treaty
of Campoformio. After the Peace
of Pressburg in 1805, the Fren-
ch Empire gained the city and
incorporated it into the Illyrian
Provinces in 1809. By 1813, the
Austrians regained the control
over the town. By the end of the
19th century, as a part of the
Habsburg domain of Dalmatia,
Knin grew steadily becoming an
important commercial as well

It presents the original Dalmatian song
which does not give up the pop-song
but has an inclination to the chanson -
a song whose most important expressi-
on is a verse.The performers are usually
also the authors of music and lyrics and
they know how to adjust the words to
the melody and how to create special
atmosphere. “Dalmatian Chanson” is a
