Légende

Ten Days in Bosnia - A Bogomile sarcophagus, 1895. 'Nothing, indeed, is more remarkable in the history of Bosnia than the part played by the Bogomiles, the missionary Protestants of the country. Gathering their faith from emigrant Albigenses, who came to preach the simpler Christianity, the Bogomile movement overran the land, and was pursued with the fire of fanaticism. In vain Popes appealed to the Kings of Hungary; in vain armies set out to burn and kill and exterminate. The Bogomile heresy was enduring, even national. It lasted until the conquest of the country by the Turks...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
