Description
The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (reigned 1331-1355) confirmed Sebastokrator Dejan's donation of the settlement site of Mokra Polěna to the Church of the Presentation of the Holy Mother of God in the village of Arhiljevica in the year 1354/55 (Selište Mokra Polěna). The charter shows a striking difference in the settlement typology, since Mokra Polěna appears as a village (selo) as well as a settlement site (selište). The village of Mokra Poljana was granted to the Monastery of Hilandar by the Empress Jevdokija and her son Konstantin Dragaš in the year 1378/79 (Selo Mokra Poljana). It is registered as Mezra Mokra Polana in the Defter for the Sanjak Köstendil from the years 1570 to 1572, which means that the village was already abandoned at that time .
