This text considers the echoes of the various ties of Byzantium with Kotor and Dubrovnik in the early Middle Ages. Results of studies of the urban nuclei of these cities, the architecture of their churches in the period in question and the cults of especially venerated saints in both cities, indicate that at the beginning of the IX century both Kotor and Dubrovnik were flooded with a great influx of immigrants from the eastern provinces of the Empire.
