A graduate student at our university is studying the urban history of the Macedonian cities Skopje and Bitola, in the context of a master thesis. The research is rather complicated, due to the apparant lack of (or not yet revealed) historical maps for these towns in the period of the Ottoman Empire (untill +- 1907) and in the following period, more specifically until the end of WWI. Our lack of expertise on the region, directs me to this mailing list. Would anyone be willing to point out the archives to research, an expert to consult, or -worst case scenario- justify why these historical city plans are so hard to find or possibly do not exist ?
