 In 1932, some families from Traboin settled near Shkodër in what is now known as Rrethinat and founded "Hot i Ri" (New Hoti).Oral traditions and fragmentary stories were collected and interpreted by writers who travelled in the region in the 19th century about the early history of the Hoti tribe.Since then, analysis of recorded historical material, linguistics and comparative anthropology have provided more historically-grounded accounts.
