The Illyrians were a confederation of Indo-European peoples subdivided into tribes and clans in a period coinciding with the end of the Bronze Age and beginning of the Iron Age. Their distribution area extended on the Balkan Peninsula along the Adriatic and Ionian Sea Coast within the Mediterranean Sea. In ancient Greek mythology, Illyrius was the son of Cadmus and Harmonia, who eventually ruled Illyria and became the founder of the Illyrian people.

The main goals of the WikiProject includes the following elements:

  • to help list and categorise articles,
  • to serve as a principal point of discussion for collaboration and
  • to provide guidelines and recommendations for articles related to Illyria and Illyrians.
