Description
In 1354/55 the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (reigned 1331-1355) confirmed the donation of several villages by Sebastokrator Dejan to the Church of the Presentation of the Holy Mother of God in the village of Arhiljevica. The toponym of Sveta Petka is mentioned in the boundary delimitation. The landholder or the donor of Svetka Petka called Takša is also attested (ta na Takšinu Svetu Petku/ta na Prosečenikь na svetu Petku). It is unclear, whether Sveta Petka was a village or a church. We suppose that it was a church. Its localisation is also unknown. The secondary literature assumes that it could have been either near Bujanovac in today's Republic of Serbia, or to the North-West of Kumanovo or to the South of Kumanovo in the Republic of North Macedonia.

| 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. |
