Description

Georgios Kontostephanos Kalameas acquired from a certain Karbunares a place called Malesta near Melnik, where he erected the church of Saint George tu Kalamea. He endowed it with vineyard, fields, courtyard, meadow and a mill and gave it together with his wife to the Monastery of Iberon as metochion (καὶ γὰρ τὸ σύνεγγυ̣ς τοῦ κάστρου Μελενίκου, τὸ ἐν τῆ τοποθεσία τῆς Μάλεστας, τὸν ἐξ αγορασίας μου τόπον ἀπὸ τοῦ Καρβουνάρη ἐκείνου, τὸ ἐκ γονικόθεν παρ’ αὐτοῦ κατεχόμενον, σὺν τοῦ ἀμπελῶνος καὶ τῶν χω̣ραφίων, τῆς αὐλῆς, τοῦ ληβαδίου καὶ τοῦ μύλωνος... ὡσαύτως καὶ ἐν τῶ αὐτῶ τόπω ἀνήγειρα ἐκ βάθρου ἐξ οἰκίου κόπου καὶ ἀναλουμάτων θείον καὶ πάνσεπτον ναὸν εἰς ὅνομα τιμώμενον τοῦ ἁγίου καὶ πανενδώξου μεγαλομάρτυρος καὶ τροπαιοφόρου Γεωργίου). Karbunares bought an 11 modioi vineyard with a nearby wasteland in Malesta from Mitas and sold it to Ioannes Sguros Orestes (Καὶ εἰς τὴν Μάλεσ̣τ̣αν ἀ̣μ̣πέλιον ἐξ ἀγορᾶς ἀπὸ τ̣ο̣ῦ̣ δηλωθέντο̣ς Καρβωνά̣ρ̣η̣ παρὰ τοῦ ε̣ἰ̣ρ̣ημένου Μιτᾶ ἐκείνου μοδίων ἕνδεκα, καὶ χέρσον μερικὸν συμπαρακ̣είμ̣εν̣ον).
