In this book you'll find all the Byzantine sources concerning Slavs. There is no mention of other Slavic peoples except Macedonian Slavs: Rinhiniti, Vajuniti, Velegeziti, Ezeriti, Milingoi, Smolyani, Strumyani, Sagudati, Beresithi, Zagoricani, Draguviti etc. There is mention of Bulgars, but not in any Slavic context. Khan Tervel for instance was helping Byzanthum to defeat the Slavs. Here. Since they deleted my edit, together with the references and external links, since they multiply in numbers to obstruct the truth, I will post it again here. All the Byzantine sources concerning Slavs. Enjoy. https://archive.org/details/ByzantineSourcesForHistoryOfThePeoplesOfYugoslavia |

During the early Middle Ages, the Byzantine historians categorized the numerous Slavic tribal unions on the early Medieval Balkans as 'Sclavinias' and often associated them with particular tribes.[1] The Slavs were self-governing in their extended families and districts, and their tribal organization was sufficiently strong to abolish Byzantine rule in the Balkans.[2] These Slavs however did not have sufficient state-building skills, they failed to unite them and during the 8th century they were reconquered by the Byzantines.[3] Some contemporary Macedonian historians have seen one of these tribal unions, referred to by the Byzantines as Sclaviniai as proto–state indicative of the formation of a separate Slavic Macedonian state, but this claim is extremely doubtful,[4] more they also spread into Thrace and Moesia, which are now not seen as part of the today Macedonia.[5] On the other hand, according to Florin Curta describes the great Slavic invasion of the 6th and 7th century on the Balkans as a historical exaggeration.[6] Thus, the construction of the first South Slavic states was organized by the Croats, Serbs and Bulgars and the local (Slavic) population in today Republic of Macedonia was first conquered by the Bulgars in the middle of the 9th century.[7]
