| (Povika?) Radoslav’ | Person | Identical with Radoslav Chlapen (Radoslabos Chlapenos)?. The old editor of the charter read the passage in the manuscript, which described his occupation, as Tornik and explained the word as his family name. He appears in the sources from 1355 to 1368. The charter refers to him as κῦρ. He was the Governor of Prizren, 1355?, Governor of Serres and čelnik (κεφαλῆς κῦρ τζελνίκου τοῦ Ῥαδοσθλάβου), 1365-1368. He was a relative and an oikeios of the Serbian Empress Jelena (Helene), presumably her son-in-law (τοῦ οἰκείου τε τῆ κραταιᾶ καὶ ἁγία ἡμῶν κυρία καὶ δεσποίνη καὶ γαμβροῦ ταύτης). According to the hypothesis of Konstantin Jireček Radoslav was the brother of čelnik Miloš and logotet Gjurgь from the Povika family. His name was interpolated in the falsified chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan from 1355, which confirmed the Monastery of Saint Petar Koriški as a metochion for the Hilandar Monastery. It can be inferred from context of the charter that he was at that time Governor of Prizren. He was an assessor in the court summoned by Sabas, the Metropolitan of Serres. The court decided the dispute over a plot of land in the village Zetinon (Zintzu) and a Church of Saint George in favor of the Esphigmenu Monastery against the Kastamonitu Monastery. He signed in August 1365 the charter issued on this occasion in Slavonic (Kefalja Radoslav’). He wrote to the Ragusan republic and confirmed that the belongings of the deceased logotet Gjurgь were rightly bequeathed to his second brother Miloš. He issued the respective document „in domo suo in civitate Serrarum“ on the 15th May 1368. | |||
| Bratanь (2) | Person | He wrote a graffiti on the fresco of Christ Antiphonetes between 1340–1350 in the Church of Saint George in Gorni Kozjak. Zagorka Rasolkoska-Nikolovska proposed that Bratanь came from Macedonia to the road called after the village Kozjak (da dodohomь na ptь Kosnačiki). Her interpretation has been challenged by Nikolaj Ovčarov, who suggests the reading „I, Bratanь, together with Macedonia came on Friday for these two services“ (azь Bratanь sь [i] Makedoniě da dodohomь na pętьkь o siě čini). | |||
| Ivanьko | Person | He wrote a graffiti on the fresco of Christ Antiphonetes between 1340–1350 in the Church of Saint George in Gorni Kozjak. He was a priest. He came from the town of Štip. His graffiti has been preserved in the upper part of the fresco of Christ Antiphonetes, which is in the narthex of the Church of Saint George in Gorni Kozjak (azь popь ivanьko ōt štipa). | |||
| Kotanitzes Tornikios | Person | Mentioned in the sources from 1280 to 1306. He was Monk of the Peribleptos Monastery in Constantinople in 1280–1283 and monk of the Μεγίστη μονή in Prusa, 1283. He held the position of Deputy commander (ὑποστράτηγος) during his stay at the Serbian court, 1297. As an outlaw, who rebelled against the Byzantine Emperor, he joined the Serbs before 1280. In 1280 he commanded the Serbian troops and plundered the Macedonian borderland till Serres. He was captured by the Byzantines. In 1283 he fled from the Μεγίστη μονή in Prusa and sought asylum at the Serbian court. Around 1297 he together with the Serbian troops looted the border regions of Macedonia. The Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin handed over Kotanitzes Tornikios to Byzantines as a consequence of the peace agreement. Kotanitzes Tornikios is attested in 1306. Probably he was still in prison. According to the historian Georgios Pachymeres the Byzantine Emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos ordered to put the rebellious general Kassianos in prison together with Kotanitzes Tornikios. Gordana Tomović assumes that Kotanitzes Tornikios is the same person as the Despot Tornikos from the inscription of the gramatikь Nestorь in the Church of Saint George at Gorni Kozjak | |||
| Nestorь | Person | He wrote a graffiti on the right side of the fresco of Christ Antiphonetes between 1340–1350 in the Church of Saint George in Gorni Kozjak. He worked as a gramatikь. Nestorь wrote his words in the time of Despot Kotanitzes Tornikios (Azь gramatikь Nestorь napisahь slova vь dьni dьnь despota Tornika). | |||
| Voihna (4) | Person | He wrote a graffiti on the fresco of Christ Antiphonetes between 1340–1350 in the Church of Saint George in Gorni Kozjak. He worked as a gramatikь. He came from the Tetev Katun. His graffiti has been preserved in the upper part of the fresco of Christ Antiphonetes, which is in the narthex of the Church of Saint George in Gorni Kozjak (azь gramatikь voihna ōt teteva katuna). |
