S'pari autorit te paragrafit te mesiperm i falenderohemi nga zemra qe pranon shqiptaresine e Epirit sepse nese sipas tij tere shqiptaret e Greqise jane me origjine toske, atehere kjo do te thote qe Epiri per gjate tere kohes eshte dominuar prej shqiptareve.The Albanian population of Greece is completely Hellenised. It is of Toskh origin. The Toskhs are the Southern Albanians,
whose northern limit may be assigned to the neighbourhood of
the River Skumbi. They differ materially from the Ghegs or
Northern Albanians. The latter are divided into tribes, the
Toskhs are not. When the Gheg is a Christian, he is a Roman
Catholic, whilst the Toskh is Orthodox. Greek influence has
moulded the Toskhs for centuries, and a Toskh, even in Turkish
territory, resembles a Greek more than he does his Gheg com-
patriot, whose chief occupation is fighting. When not thus
engaged his condition is that of armed idleness. The difference
extends even to the dress ; the Albanian costume adopted by the
Greeks, whose distinguishing feature is the fustanella, the many-
pleated white kilt, is Toskh. The fustanella is unknown among
the Ghegs. It is difficult to draw a line of demarcation between
Greeks and Toskhs in North-Western Greece. But the division
between Toskhs and Ghegs farther north is as sharp as
between two different nations.
Home life in Hellas, Greece and the Greeks"
Autori eshte nje nder te shumtit qe thote ate qe e kane thene dhe shume studiues shqiptare: qe Tosket beheshin me shume me greket sesa me Geget (per marredhenie, martesa etj.) Dhe ndersa midis Gegeve dhe Toskeve ka nje kufi te qarte, lumi Shkumbin, midis Toskeve dhe Grekeve ka pasur nje difuzion aq te madh sa nuk mund te flitej per nje kufi te qarte.AgrianShigjetari wrote:Njeriu s'ka sesi te mos qeshe me gjithe zemer me orvatjet e ketij autori per te vendosur hendeqe midis gegeve dhe toskeve, dhe ne anen tjeter per t'i paraqitur tosket te padallueshem prej 'North-Western Greeks'. Ndonese autori ben perpjekje kaq te deshperueshme per nje gje te tille, prapseprap faktet e tradhtojne ate.

Nje tosk nuk i ngjan nje 'greku' sikunder perpiqet te thote autori, por i perngjan vellaut te tij ne Atike, More, Eube, Argolis, Hydra, Specai, etj te cilet jane shqiptare puro. Perkundrazi, nje tosk nuk i perngjan aspak nje 'greku' te ardhshem: sllavi, armeni apo pontiani te cilet erdhen prej Azise se Vogel per t'u kurorizuar si 'genuine Greeks'.
Autori per te bere diferncime midis gegeve dhe toskeve na permend se Geget nuk e perdorin fare Fustanellen. S'kemi sesi te mos e veme buzen ne gaz kur e dime qe fustanella ka pase nje perdorim te jashtezakonshem (po kaq te dendur sa ne Toskeri) deri ne fund te shekullit XIX.
Eshte e pamundshme te hiqet nje vije e prere midis Toskeve dhe 'Grekeve' ne Greqine Veri-perendimore. Sigurisht kete s'e luan as topi. Si mund te terhiqet nje vije e prere dallimi midis shqiptareve?
