Description

King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed and donated in the first charter issued for the Monastery of Treskavec the Metochion (and Church) of St. Demetrius in the lower town of Prilep, which was given to the monastery by the children of Misinopolites, with its fields, vineyards and watermills as well as with its fair to the same monastery (Metohь Svetii Dimitrїe u Prilěpě, što priložihu Misinopolitova dětьca, sь nivijemь i sь vinogradi i sь voděnicami i sь Kučьkověne selištemь i sь panagiromь i sь vьseju pravinoju togo). This means that the children of Misinopolites inherited the Metochion of St. Demetrius with its possessions and the settlement site or abandoned village (selište) of Kučьkověne from their father and donated it most probably to the Monastery of Treskavac after the Serbian conquest of Prilep.
