| Chonuche (Konjuh) | Place | Chonuche was most probably inhabited with interruptions from the 3rd century AD to the 14th century. It might be identified with Tranupara on the Tabula Peutingeriana. The only written medieval evidence regarding Chonuche comes from 1372. A transport of goods belonging to the Ragusan merchant Junije Bunić, who lived and worked in the city of Thessalonike, was at that time intercepted and looted by a certain Junije Sorkočević assisted by a nobleman in the service of the Dragaš family. This assault took place near the fortress of Chonuche (un logo che a nome lo chastelo Chonuche) on the road between Thessalonike and Novo Brdo in Kosovo (E pero siando partidi de Salunihi e çonti in lo teren del despoti Dragas in un logo che a nome lo chastelo Chonuche, la si vene Guno de Sorgo con 1 çintilomo de Dragas et si me tolsi queste chose sovrascrite con V chavali). A market (merchado) and an inn (albercho) in Chonuche are also mentioned. | ||
| Chonuche (Konjuh), Church of the Saint Archangel (Saint George) | Place | The Church of Saint George near Konjuh is a single aisle building with a protruding Eastern apse. Svetozar Radojčić identified the building as a church of the Saint Archangel. He used the fresco in the lunette above the entrance (now vanished) as evidence for his identification. | ||
| Kumanovo | Place | The toponym "Kumanovo" can be associated with the Turkic people called Cumans. Present day Kumanovo lies probably on the remains of the ancient Aquae, shown as a pictogram on the Tabula Peutingeriana. The medieval written sources do not provide evidence for Kumanovo. This is probably due to the fact that Žegligovo and Nagoričino were the centers of the region in the Middle Ages. The first appearance of Kumanovo in the sources is in the Defter for the Sanjak Köstendil. Kumanovo is registered in the Defter from 1519 and from the years 1570 to 1572. Therein, it is described as a village. The Ottoman traveller Evliya Çelebi visited Kumanovo in the year 1660 and refers to it as "kasaba" ("small town"). The British physician Edward Brown passed through "Comonova" in 1668/69. | ||
| Zlokukjane | Place | The village of Zlokukjane was granted to the Monastery of Hilandar by the Empress Jevdokija and her son Konstantin Dragaš in the year 1378/79 (selo Zlokukjane). It is registered as Kumaničevo in the Defter for the Sanjak Köstendil from the years 1570 to 1572. Zlokukjane is a self-explanatory toponym, which can be translated literally as "bad house". It indicates a certain inhospitality or an abandoned (that is enchanted) ruin site. |

| Radovanь | Person | Mentioned in the inscription for Voihna from 1362/1374 and in the colophone of the manuscript of Lětovnik from 1386, which is now in the Synodal library manuscript collection (Nr. 148) in the State Historical Museum. He appers as a blagočьštivь i hristoljubivь gospodinь in the colophone. Voihna worked for him as a courtier before 1362/1374 († a se ležitь rabь boži Voihna dvoraninь Radovanovь mladь prěstavi se k.e. dьnь i bogь da prosti). He was the sponsor of the slavic version of the chronicle of Georgios Monachos (the so-called Lětovnikь). He commisioned in 1386 Rōmanь and Vasïlь, the scribes and monks from the Hilandar Monastery, to copy the manuscript. Rōmanь and Vasïlь wrote a colophone, where they anticipate Radovanь enjoying the lecture of the book in his house (I ispisa se sija kniga, lětopisьcь, vь Svetěi Gōrě, vь ōbytěli svetyje i carьskyje i čьstnije lavry prěsvetije bogorodice Hilandara blagočьštivomu i hristoljubivomu gospodinu Radovanu, ponježe vьshotě iměti siju knigu vь domu svojemь, i naslaždati se pročitanijem ōt njeje minuvšïih drevnïih car ōt Adama daže do potopa, i ōt potopa do Hrista, po Hristě blagočьstivyih carь i svetyih i duhovnosnïih mužïi daaže do carьstva Konstantina Irïnina syna. I togda igumьnьstvujuštu vь tomžde monastyri Hïlandari mitropolitu carьskago grada sěra kyr Savě, i pri njem ispisa se povelěnijem i potьštanijemь jaže ō njei ljubve radi gospodina Radovana čьstnomu starcu kyr Ïōasafu rukama mnogogrěšnih i směrennyhь taha monahь Rōmana i Vasïlïa). | |||
| Voihna (3) | Person | He lived before 1362/1374. He was the subject of the inscription on the stone gravestone, which was found in the Church of Saint George (Saint Archangel) near Konjuh.
