Description

The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan's issued the so-called "General Charter (Opšta hrisovulja)" to the Monastery of Hilandar, through which he confirmed all previous donations and records of the land-inventory of the monastery. Although the charter bears the date 1348, it is with the utmost probability not an original. Lidija Slaveva considers the charter to be a copy that was written after the year 1365.
