Life edit

Progon's realm was the first Albanian state during the Middle Ages.[2][3][4] Little is known about archon Progon who was the first ruler of Kruja and its surroundings,[5] between 1190 and 1198.[6] The Kruja fortress stayed in the possession of the Progoni family, and Progon was succeeded by his sons Gjin, and later Dimitri.[7] Before 1204, Arbanon was an autonomous principality of the Byzantine Empire.[8] He is mentioned with his two sons in an inscription from the St. Mary Monastery in Trifandina, Gëziq, northern Albania.[9] The titles archon (held by Progon) and panhypersebastos (held by Dimitri) is a sign of Byzantine dependence.[10]
