It is very unlikely that he is the same person as Damijan, the Bishop of Prizren. The latter is attested in the collective charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin and Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Tower of Hrusija of the Hilandar Monastery on Mount Athos (jepiskupomь prizrěnskymь Damijanomь). Before 1307 he together with the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin took the fields near the Church of Holy Mother of God at Trhalě not far from Trěboš in Polog from Žegrь and they set his houses on fire (I u Trěboši pri crьkvi svetyje bogorodice pri Trьhalě nivije crьkovno što bylo ōt věka. I uzeli jesu byli Položani, i iznašьlь je roditelь kraljevьstva mi sь jepiskopomь Damijanomь i sь iepiskopomь Iliōmь, i ōtjelь ōt Žegra, i kušte mu popalilь). He was still alive in 1307 according to the ktitorial inscription of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin, which is preserved in the apse of the Church Bogorodica Ljeviška in Prizren (Stefan Urošь kralь hristě bozě blagověrьnь kralь srьbskyh i pomorskihь prěvnukь svetago simeōna nemane i zetь cara grьčkago kirь andronika paleōloga ponovihь hramь svetie bogorodice lěviške ot samogo ōsnovanija i ja směreni popь prizrěnьsky damijanь trudyhь se vь lěto ѕ ѱ ei). Damianos is mentioned in the sermon of the Byzantine writer Theodoros Metochites, who undertook the task to arrange the marriage of the Byzantine princess Simonis with the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin. He was a Monk. He accompanied Dukaites around 1298 at the request of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš Milutin to Constantinople (κἀγὼ μὲν αὐτίκα τὸν καλὸν Δουκαίτην ἐς βασιλέα· καὶ αὐτὸς δὲ οὕστινας οἶσθα, σὺν αὐτῷ πέμπομεν, Δαμιανόν τινα αὐτὸν οἶμαι ὄνομα μοναχὸν).

He died on 13th April in 1308 or 1309. He was the Bishop of Prizren 1306/1307–1308/1309. The Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin together with the Bishops Damijan and then Ilija took the fields from Žegrь and they set his houses, which he had built on the fields near the Church of Holy Mother of God at Trhalě not far from Trěboš in Polog on fire. (I u Trěboši pri crьkvi svetyje bogorodice pri Trьhalě nivije crьkovno što bylo ōt věka. I uzeli jesu byli Položani, i iznašьlь je roditelь kraljevьstva mi sь jepiskopomь Damijanomь i sь iepiskopomь Iliōmь, i ōtjelь ōt Žegra, i kušte mu popalilь). He is also mentioned in the Pomenik of the Church of Holy Mother of God Ljeviška in Prizren.

He appears as kir in the chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan from 1346/1347 concerning the founding of the Zletovo episcopate. He was the Bishop of Skopje before 1346 and Metropolitan (Archbishop) of Skopje between 1346–1350. He attented the sabor in Skopje on 16th April 1346, where he witnessed the coronation of Stefan Uroš IV Dušan as Emperor of the Greeks and the Serbs by the Serbian Patriarch. He is mentioned in the chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan from 1346/1347 concerning the founding of the Zletovo episcopate. According to the chrysobull charter the Serbian Emperor asked several high-ranking clerics, among them also Ioannes (Jovanь), for permission to found the Bishopric of Zletovo (i sь arhïepiskopomь skopskymь rek’še mitropolitomь kirь Ïōanomь). He is attested in the charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Monastery Xeropotamu from April/May 1346 (διὰ τοῦ πρωτοθρόνου Σκοπίων μητροπολίτου ὑπερτίμου Ἰωάννου), the charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Monastery Esphigmenu from April/May 1346 (διὰ τοῦ πρωτοθρόνου Σκοπείων μητροπολίτου καὶ ὑπερτίμου Ἰωάννου), charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Monastery Batopedi from May 1346 (διὰ τοῦ πρωτοθρόνου Σκοπίων μητροπολίτου καὶ ὑπερτίμου Ἰωάννου). He donated the epitaphion worn during the Holy Liturgy of the Great Entrance to the Hilandar Monastery (ΜΝΗΣΘΙΤΗ ΚΕ ΤΗΝ ΨΥΗΗΝ ΤΟΥ ΔΟΥΛΟΥ ΣΟΥ ΙΩ ΑΡΗΙΕΠΙΣΚΟΠΟΥ ΣΚΟΠΙΩΝ).

Mentioned in the inscription on his own tomb, which was kept in the Church of Saint Athanasius in Lešok. He was a priestmonk (Anthonije/Anьtonije), then Bishop of the region Lower Polog (Iōanikie). After the year 1308 the Church of Saint Athanasius in Lešok was found by the Priestmonk Antonije (Izvoleniemь ōca i vьplьšteniemь sina i pospěšeniemь svetago duha azь eriomonaahь Anthonie pridohъ vь sie město i rastiždahь i raskopahь gabryi i uravnihь bregove i načehь si hramь zidati svetago athanasija vь dni kralja milutina i vtorago kralja sina mu stefana i tretiego kralja sina mu dušane). Between the years 1346 and 1355 Antonije was appointed Bishop of Lower Polog by the Serbian Patriarch Joanikije II, who has given him the name Iōanikie (i prizva patriarha blьgarskago i arhiepiskupa srьbskago iōanikija i stvori zborь u skopi i blagosloviše ego na carьski sanь i bystь prvonastolny carь srbskoi zemli i grčkoi i pomorskoi arhiepiskupa iōanikija blagosloviše na patriarhiju srbskoi zemli vь to carstvo blagosloviše anьtonija na episkupstvo dolnemu pologu prvonastolna po izvoleniju božiju prětvoriše ime jemu iōanikie poneže něe bilo prěge episkupь polozě).

Deceased probably before 1349. He was the Bishop of Zletovo, 1347–1349. He is portrayed on the southern wall of the narthex of the Monastery of Saint Archangel Michael and Holy Father Gabriel in Lěsnovo with the accompaying inscription, which identifies him (vseōsveštenni episkupь zletovьski iōanь). According to Gabelić Iōanь perhaps donated the epitaphion with the scene Lamentation over the dead Christ to the Hilandar Monastery (gospodi bože našь prijemi dary abelovy i nojevy i jaronovy i zahariny i samoilovy i vsěhь svetihь tvoihь tako i otь ruku mene grěšnago iōanь primi se prinoštenije vь čьstь i slavu i vonju blagouhanьnu arhistratiga ... i ōca našego gavrila pustinožitelě. ruka grěšnago siropula).

Mentioned in the sources from June 1355 to 1379. He appears as ὑπέρτιμος or kyrь in the sources. He was the Metropolitan of Melnik (ὁ ταπεινὸς Μελενίκου καὶ ὑπέρτιμος Κύριλλος, dostolěpni i v’sečьstni prěōsvešten’ni mitropolitь bogozdan’nago grada Mel’nika). He attested the authenticity of the charter from June 1355 concerning the sale of a plot of land in Chomnos Stolos near Melnik. Before May 1356 he found the Church of Saint Nicholas in Melnik damaged. He restored the church, built a wall around it and a tower (kyrь Kirilь ō crьkvi svetago Nikoli čudotvor’ca Stožьskoga kako jestь naš’lь ōnuzi crьkvь svetago Nikoli Stož’koga porušenu, i ōnь ju jestь ōbnovilь i sьzidalь i ōšte i k’tomu pirьgь sьzidalь svoimь trudomь i ōtkupomь). The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš V confirmed in a chrysobull in May 1356, together with his mother, the Empress Jelena-Jelisaveta, the possession of the Church of Saint Nicholas in the town of Melnik with its landed property and holdings in Psalině and Gr’dali to the Metropolitan Kirilь. The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš V donated also the village Smilovo to him (I za tozi uspomenutije prěōsvešten’nago ni mitropolita kyrь Kirila prije gospožda mi i mati carьstva mi carica kyra Jelisaf’ti i carьstvo mi, i darovasmo mu ōnuzi kjeliju, crьkvь svetago Nikoli Stožьs’koga i pirьgь što si estь samь zidalь sь vsěmi pravinami i s selomь što si estь drьžala tazi crьkvь, i s planinomь. I zapisa mu carьstvo mi Kondarata sь stasiōmь i s perivoljemь i s vinogradomь i s nivijemь što si estь drьžalь i prěgje u Psalině. I staьs Jullianova u Grdali na čemь jestь sědělь Svinoglavь sь v’sěmi pravinami stasi těh’zi. I ōšte se carьstvo mi zьgovori z gospoždomь caricomь materiju carьstva mi i pridados’mo selo Smilovo sь vsьmi pravinami i s megjami i sь zasel’ci kako su drьžali vlasteličiki carьstva mi v’se čisto. I ošte mu zapisa carьstvo mi vinograd Tukarevь i Luv’rov što mu su darovali vlasteličiki carьstva mi Vitomirь i Staniša. I kupeničije što si jestь kupilь samь mitropolitь Kyrilь i priložil pod ōnuzi crьkvь da mu něstь vol’nь nikto potvoriti). Kyrillos is mentioned in the patriarchal decree from 1379 concerning the property dispute of the Spelaion-Monastery.

Mentioned in the collective charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin and Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Tower of Hrusija at the Monastery of Hilandar on Mount Athos. The chrysobull charter is a diplomatic forgery with an authentic content. It consists of four transcripts. The compilation of charters was created in the Hilandar monastery for the needs of the monastic community between 1336 and the second half of the 14th century. He was the Bishop of Skopje. His name appears only in the collective charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin for the Tower of Hrusija at the Monastery of Hilandar on Mount Athos. The collective charter drew its information probably from the older Assembly chrysobull, which was composed around 1303 (jepiskupomь skopskymь Nikolomь).
