The Byzantine Emperor Andronikos II handed over to the Monastery of Hilandar the summer pasture called Matzista and the Metochion Hagios Demetrios tou Krilatou/Pteratou (Ὡσαύτως ἔχει θέλημα καὶ διορίζεται ἡ βασιλεία μου, ἵνα κατέχηται παρὰ τῆς δηλωθείσης σεβασμίας μονῆς τοῦ Χελανταρίου καὶ ἡ περὶ τὸν Μελενίκον δημοσιακὴ πλανηνὴ ἡ Μάτζιστα σὺν τῆ τοῦ Ἁγίου Δημητρίου τοῦ Πτερωτοῦ καλουμένη). The Byzantine Co-Emperors Michael IX. Palaiologos and Andronikos III Palaiologos confirmed the owner right of the Monastery of Hilandar over the summer pasture Matzista and the Metochion Hagios Demetrios tou Krilatou/Pteratou (καὶ ἡ περὶ τὸν Μελενίκον δημοσιακὴ πλανηνὴ ἡ Μάτζιστα σὺν τῆ τοῦ Ἁγίου Δημητρίου τοῦ Πτερωτοῦ καλουμένη).
