Description
Our reasoning is based on the premise that the toponym "Carica" (i.e. Empress) bears witness to imperial presence at the respective place. The toponym "Carica" obviously indicates a possible physical presence of the Serbian Empress. The toponym "Carica Elena" is attested in the unpublished "Azbučna kartoteka na toponimi od istorisko-geografska Makedonija", which is kept in the Krste Misirkov Institute of Macedonian Language (Ss. Cyril and Methodius University of Skopje).
