Nikola (2)

Description

Identical with Nikola 1? Mentioned in the scribal annotation of the priest Nikola from Skopje in the manuscript located in the library of the Saint Panteleimon Monastery on Mount Athos. The terminus post quem of the note is 1313, because Nikola reports on the victory of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II. Milutin over the Turks in Asia Minor (vь dьni Uroša kralě Milutina egda pobi Turkẽ vь Grьcěhь). He was a priest. He was the brother or the spiritual brother of the priest Grьdo (popu Grьdu bratu mi). He copied a Book of Acts and Evangeliary in Skopje and dedicated it to the priest Grьdo from Vinyka (Pisa sẽ sija kniga vь Skopi grade popu Grьdu bratu mi ot Vinyka).
