Manikes Makarios

Μανίκης Μακάριος

Description

Mentioned in the charter of Makarios, the Patriarch of Constantinople, from 1379. Monk in the Theotokos Kataphygion Monastery in Melnik, between 1355–1377. He forged the charter to the benefit of his monastery, which was in dispute with the Monastery of the Holy Mother of God Spelaiotissa in Melnik because of the mill, which Ioannes Mylonas constructed. He presented it to Spyridon, the Metropolitan of Melnik as a charter of his predecessor in the office Kyrillos.
