Mokër is a geographical region in Southeastern Albania, composed by 47 villages, which are all above 1,000m from sea level. The region is composed of two subregions, Upper Mokër (Mokra e Sipërme) and Lower Mokër (Mokra e Poshtme). As a result of 2013, several villages have been abandoned.[1] One of the villages that is in the Mokër region is Selcë e Poshtme which was an Illyrian settlement. It was established since the early Iron Age. Located in the region of the Illyrian Dassaretii. It holds the Illyrian Royal Tombs which were built during the 4th and 2nd centuries BC.[2][3][4]

La première phase pré-urbaine a évolué en une deuxième phase, urbaine,au commencement du IVe siècle av. J.-C. et jusqu'au Ier siècle ap. J.-C.
