Our reasoning is based on the premise that the toponym “Car” (i.e. Tsar, Emperor) bears witness to imperial presence at the respective place. The toponym “Car” obviously indicates, apart from a possible physical presence of the Serbian Emperor, also a possibility of a causal link with the Byzantine Emperor or the Bulgarian Tsar. The toponym Carev Kladenec is attested in the unpublished “Azbučna kartoteka na toponimi od istorisko-geografska Makedonija”, which is kept in the Krste Misirkov Institute of Macedonian Language (Ss.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).
