Abstract

This article deals with the analysis of school systems on the territory of the Byzantine Empire in the 9th century. It determines the cultural and historic environment out of which the mission sent by the emperor Michael III came.

This act brought not only Christianity to our territory but also the concept of education as well. Yet it was not possible to apply all the components directly as the Slavonic countries were under the influence of the western culture.

This text analyzes where the educational centers were established in Byzantium and their possible places on the territory of Rastislav's realm.
