Description

The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (reigned 1331-1355) confirmed Sebastokrator Dejan's donation of Vilska to the Church of the Presentation of the Holy Mother of God in the village of Arhiljevica in the year 1354/55. The site appears only in the later transcript (Hil. 150). The village of Stanka is mentioned in the boundary description of Vilska (Ōtь Vodičnikove glavě upravь na u Pogorь, na Glьbokyi dolь, na Staʼnke). The village of Stančik, probably identical with the village of Stanka, was granted by the Empress Jevdokija and her son Konstantin Dragaš to the Monastery of Hilandar in the year 1378/79 (selo Stančikja). Stanka is registered in the Defter for the Sanjak Köstendil from the years 1570 to 1572.

Arhiljevica 1 Source The chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (reigned 1331-1355) confirmed the foundation of the Church of the Presentation of the Holy Mother of God by Sebastokrator Dejan in the village of Arhiljevica and its landed property. The original charter has not come upon us, and its content is preserved only in two later transcripts. The older one (Hilandar 36) is probably an authentic transcript, but its dating is questionable, because it contradicts historical circumstances known from other reliable sources. Therefore, the date, when the lost orginal was issued, can only be approximated to the years 1354 or 1355. Hilandar 150/152 differs from its predecessor in the dispositional section, containing two previously unmentioned villages, which do not appear even in the charter by the Serbian Empress Jevdokija and her son Konstantin Dragaš from 1378/79. It was made in the 15th century or later with the intent of obtaining or confirming the enlargement of Chilandar's Arhiljevica metochion.
Arhiljevica 2 Source This charter was issued in 1378/79 by the Serbian Empress Jevdokija and her son Konstantin Dragaš, through which they donated the Church of the Presentation of the Holy Mother of God in the village of Arhiljevica together with its possessions to the Hilandar Monastery on the Holy Mount Athos.
