Mariovo (Macedonian Cyrillic: Мариово) is a historic region in the southern part of Republic of Macedonia (area of 1,390 square km, elevation 1,050 m), situated between the mountains Selečka (highest peak - Visoka 1,471 m) on the west, Nidže (highest peak - Kajmakčalan 2,520 m) and Kožuf (highest peak - Zelenbeg 2,171 m) on the south, Kozjak (highest peak - Baltova Čuka 1,822 m) on the east and Dren mountain (highest peak - Studenica 1,663 m) on the north. The river Crna flows across the whole area of Mariovo, creating the largest canyon in Macedonia which is around 100 km long. The region is divided into three sub-regions, Bitolsko Mariovo (with its center Staravina), Prilepsko Mariovo (with its center Vitolište) and Tikveško Mariovo (consisted of the western parts of the former municipality Konopište with the villages of Rožden, Majdan, Ržanovo and Klinovo). Nowadays, administratively it is divided among three municipalities: Prilep, Novaci and Kavadarci. The river Crna also divides the region into two sub-regions, Small Mariovo (Malo Mariovo) on the left side of the river, and Old (Large) Mariovo (Staro Mariovo) on the right side of the river. The specific position and natural condition of this geomorphological entity have contributed towards creation of a distinct local climate which differs from the other parts of the country. The mountains Dren and Selečka shield Mariovo from the continental northern winds. On the south-east the basin of the river Crna enables Mediterranean influences from Aegean Sea, while in the area of Skočivir Ravine the moderate continental clime makes its way from the Pelagonian plains. The influence of three climate zones can be felt in this area. More people lived there, but due to migration there are fewer than 1,000 inhabitants left in the 28 settlements: Vitolište, Bešište, Veprčani, Vrpsko, Dunje, Živovo, Kalen, Kokre, Kruševica, Manastir, Polčište, Peštani, Čanište, Brnik, Budimirci, Gradešnica, Gruništa, Zovič, Iveni, Makovo, Orle, Rapeš, Staravina, Ržanovo, Rožden, Galište, Klinovo and Majden. == Polcista == The site of s.Polcista dates from the time of ancient Macedonian kings (4th century BC) and is located between villages of Staravina and Polcista. Standing in the center of Polcista, one can notice the outlines of a fortress on the horizon. There also used to be a town in the vicinity, which the villagers consider to be the birthplace of King Philip because historical dates claim that he descended from the mountains and built and Zelezna Porta and Pela . The closest mountain to the north-west of Pela is exactly this one in Mariovo. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mariovo」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
