Armasan(a) Place The charter, which is mentioning the boundary mark of Armasan(a), is a forged document for the Monastery of Chilandar attributed to King Stefan Uroš II Milutin. It summarises the possessions of Chilandar and confirms earlier donations amongst others in the town of Štip and its surroundings. The document was created in the years 1371 to 1378 during a legal dispute with the Monastery of St. Panteleimon on Mount Athos based on the existing charter of King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan from the 1330s. The charter is attesting a state of possessions of the Church of St. Archangel Michael in Štip, which was built by the Serbian nobleman Stefan Hrelja Dragovol, as they existed in the 1330s. The charter also attests the resettlement of abandoned settlements with people from foreign lands by the Serbian nobleman Hrelja (A mega Armasana sь vsěmi ljudmi i naseleni sel těh, što si je naselilь ōt tugih zemlь).
Belasica Place The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed the donation of the summer pasture in the mountain of Belasica, a former land of Stefan Hrelja Dragovol, to the Monastery of Hilandar after May 1343 (I planina Belasica, a megja jei kako grede putь ōtь Ključa u planinu, pravo putemь na vьrhь, na Mut’nicu, na Debrěvnikь, na Ivanovo selište i na Šugovo, na Sulu, na Prěseku).

The property devolved upon the Hilandar Monastery after the death of Rudlь (I poljubii voleju i hotěniemь svoimь, a sь milostiju kraljevstva mi da estь člověkь svetyje Bogorodice Hilandarskye Rudlь sь vsěmь svoimь, sь crьkvomь si Ōdigitriōm, iže estь sьzdalь trudomь svoimь, i sь vsěmi pravinami selo Boruevo što mu estь dalo kraljevstvo mi, s ljudmi i sь vsomь baštinomь svoōmь, i što si ima u gradu i u Banstě dvě nivě i voděnica, sь ljudmi i sь livadami i sь selištemь eže mu estь dalь Hrelja Robovo, sь vsěmi pravinami, i sь kupeničiemь, i sь vsěmь těmь što si ima u gradu i u poli, sь vsěmь těm ga priloži i zapisa kraljevьstvo mi Bogorodici Hilandarskoi, da estь do věka crьkvny, nikymь neōtьjemljemo doma svetyje Bogorodice Hilandarskye, a Rudlь svoe vʼse da drži do smrʼti, a po smrti jego da estь crьkovno).

The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed the donation of the village Brěstokь, a former land of Stefan Hrelja Dragovol, to the Monastery of Hilandar after May 1343 (drugi Brěstь prěz Lukavicu/I po ōne strane rěke selo Brěstovica).

I si vьsa priloži protosevastь Hrelja sь milostiju kraljevьstva mi). In the year 1371 the judge Michalis Ioskules made a boundary description in the valley of the river Strumica for the Monasteries of Chilandar and Hagios Panteleimon on Mount Athos commissioned by the Serbian Despot Jovan Uglješa, wherein the summer pasture of Draguljevo is mentioned (tēn planinēn tēn Draguleban).

Sveti Ilija Place The boundary description of the village Kunarjane in the narrow place Ključ, which is preserved in the charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Monastery of Hilandar issued after May 1343, mentions the marketplace Sveti Ilija (I u Ključi Kunarani i sinoromь: kako teče is planine potokь megju Ključь i Kunarane, tere potokomь u Veliju rěku a po ōnoi strane rěke na Ōzrinь, na mogilice, na lokʼvu, na sadove, na kopišta, na Črьveni brěg, na veli dubь, pravo u rěku.

I trьgь Svetago Ilije).
Vasilica Place The charter, which is mentioning the river Vasilica, is a forged document for the Monastery of Chilandar attributed to King Stefan Uroš II Milutin. It summarises the possessions of Chilandar and confirms earlier donations amongst others in the town of Štip and its surroundings. The document was created in the years 1371 to 1378 during a legal dispute with the Monastery of St. Panteleimon on Mount Athos based on the existing charter of King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan from the 1330s. The charter is attesting a state of possessions of the Church of St. Archangel Michael in Štip, which was built by the Serbian nobleman Stefan Hrelja Dragovol, as they existed in the 1330s. The charter also attests the resettlement of abandoned settlements with people from foreign lands by the Serbian nobleman Hrelja (I planina Ōgraždenь i pašište Črьvena polěna. Sinorь Vasilica, sinōrь Stlьbica i Drakšanь i Petrovo i Slivnica i Knjeginja na brězničsky putь i na Frugopolovo selište).
Ōgraždeno Place The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed the donation of the summer pasture in the mountain Ōgraždeno and Draguljevo, a former land of Stefan Hrelja Dragovol, to the Monastery of Hilandar after May 1343 (I planina Ōgraždeno i Draguljevo i podьplaninьje sь vseju ōblastiju.

Šugovo Place The boundary description of the village Kunarjane in the narrow place Ključ, which is preserved in the charter of the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Monastery of Hilandar issued after May 1343, mentions the village of Šugovo (I u Ključi Kunarani i sinoromь: kako teče is planine potokь megju Ključь i Kunarane, tere potokomь u Veliju rěku a po ōnoi strane rěke na Ōzrinь, na mogilice, na lokʼvu, na sadove, na kopišta, na Črьveni brěg, na veli dubь, pravo u rěku.

The village is registered in the Defters for the Vilayet Demirhisar in 1454/1455. The village is also listed in the Defters for the Kaza, resp. Nahiye Timur Hisar in 1530 and 1569/1570 as Šugova, resp. Šugovo.

Asanь Tutko Person Mentioned in the two variants of the chrysobull charter confirming the donations of Hrelja to the Hilandar Monastery in the area of Štip and Strumica issued by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan and in the charter of the Serbian Despot Jovan and Konstantin Dragaš and their mother Evdokija for the the Monastery Hagios Panteleemon on Mount Athos from 1376/1377. He was a pronoiarios. He possessed along with Tutko Asanь the settlement site Štuka and a parcel of land. In the second variant of the inauthentic chrysobull charter is the land held by Laskarь Siderofai and Tutko Asanь described only as neighbouring the village Sekirnik (Selište Štuka i komatь zemlje što su drьžali pronijarije grьčьscïi Tut’ko, Asanь, Laskarь Siderofai, konь Sekir’nika do potoka i više puta i podь putь i niže krьsta/ i zemlju što su drьžali pronijarije grьčьsci Tutko, Asanь, Laskarь Siderofai, konь Sěkir’nika do potoka i više puta i podь putь i niže krьsta). A land near Strumica, the church of the priest Simona Prьkja and an area in its vicinity, which belonged to Laskarь Siderofai and Tutko Asanь, were the subject of a land dispute between the Hilandar Monastery and the Monastery Hagios Panteleemon on the Holy Mount Athos. An arbitration-comitee was summoned at the behest of the Serbian Despot Konstantin Dragaš to resolve the conflict. Danilь, Bishop of Vodoča and Strumica, Grigorije, the Bishop of Banьska, and Stanko, the Pristav of the governor of Strumica, deliminated the boundary between both litigants in the presence of witnesses (o zemli konь Strumice i crkvi popa Simona Prьkje i zemli Laskara Siderofaga i Tutkově). According to the charter of the bishops a gathering of noblemen and people witnessed in the time of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan that the land of Tutko Asanь and Laskarь Siderofai did not extend as far as the village of Mokrievo and Mokrani (Tokožde i za zemlju Laskara Siderofaga i Tutkovu – ně bila u grьčkje d’ni s Makrijevom ni s Mokrani, i pri cari Stefaně znamo: uze gusa konje careve i ljudi izbiše, i posla carь da plati okolina priselicu, i izide okolina vsa, vlastele i hora, i rekoše prěd gospodinom caremь Stepanom: ničija od nasь zemlja ně, tьkmo Hilandarska, i dalь ju je Hrelia kjesarь Hilandaru, i imaju siju u hrisvuli cara Stepana). In 1376/77 the mother of the Serbian Despots Jovan and Konstantin Dragaš, Evdokija, donated together with her sons the village of Mokrievo with boundaries, summer pasture, mountain, vineyards, fruit trees, watermill, vegetable gardens, field, meadow, hunting grounds, river and fords and the land of Tutko and Siderofaiev to the Monastery Hagios Panteleemon on Mount Athos (Selo Makrijevo sinoromь, sь planinomь, zь brьdomь, sь vinogradi, s voštьjemь, sь vodeničьjemь, sь kipurijami, sь poljemь, sь lugomь, sь lovišti, sь rekomь, zь brodovi, i zemlju Tutkovu i zemlju Sideropsajevu).
Berislavь Person Mentioned in the the so-called „zbirna hrisovulja” of the Serbian Kings Stefan Uroš II Milutin and Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, which has been preserved in four transcripts in the library of the Monastery Hilandar. They are dated between 1303/1304 and 1336/1340-1342/1345. He founded the Church of Sveti Georgij in the settlement site Srьbšori, which was granted with vineyards and fields by the Serbian kings to the Monastery of Hilandar (I crьkvь svetago Geōrьgia, što jestь zidalь Berislavь na selišti Srьbšori, sь vinogradomь i sь nivijem i sь vseju ōblasti crьkve te: Sinorь ōt Pupavnicu po dělu ba lokьvu i na Gornicu, ta na drumь i na Zubovo Krušije niz rěku do trapa srьbskago, da jestь metohь svete Bogorodice hilandarskyje).
Boroslavь Person Mentioned in the Charter of Danilь, the Bishop of Vodoča and Strumica, and Grigorije, the Bishop of Banьska from 1375/1376. He was the lord of the village Něžičino (Boroslavь gospodar Nežičʼki). Boroslavь was in conflict with the Hilandar Monastery because of the boundary between the villages Boruevo, apparently a property of the Hilandar Monastery, and Něžičino, where he resided. A commision, consisting of Čelnik Terijan, Stanko, the Pristav of the governor (kefalija) of Strumica and four Elders, was summoned before 1375/1376 by the Serbian Despot Konstantin Dragaš and determinated the boundary between both possessions (da ukažu zemli meždu Boruevom i meždu Něžičinom, i o čim' se svagja Hilandarь i Boroslavь gospodar Nežič'ki).
Branilo (1) Person Mentioned in the chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Hilandar Monastery from 1347 and the prostagma charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Hilandar Monastery written between 1349 and 1353. He was a minor nobleman of the Serbian emperor (vlasteličikja carьstva mi Branila; vlasteličikь carьstva mi Branilo). He served as a čelnik of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (čelnika Branila). He together with the nobleman Kalavar were entrusted by the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan with the delimitation of the border of the Hilandar’s possession in Lozikion (Lužac) He was sent by the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan in order to determine the boundary of the Hilandar’s metochion above Sekirʼnikь in the region of Strumica, which was endangered by the attacks of noblemen, minor noblemen and katuns of the Vlachs.
Chreles Stephanos Person According to the later tradition and forged documents he came out from the noble family of Ohmućević. He appears for the first time in the history of John Kantakuzenos. In December 1327 he commanded a Serbian auxiliary contingent of twelwe cohorts laying between Drama and Philippoi in support of the Byzantine Emperor Andronikos II. against his grandson Andronikos III. (τοῦ δὲ ἐκ τῶν Τριβαλῶν συμμαχικοῦ, δυοκαίδεκα ταγμάτων ὄντων, ὁ Χρέλης ἐστρατήγει, τῶν τε παρὰ Τριβαλοῖς εὐπατριδῶν καὶ ἀνδρίας καὶ ἐμπειρίας στρατηγικῆς τὰ πρῶτα φέρων παρ’ αὐτοῖς). In 1334–1335, Hrelja reconstructed the church of the Rila Monastery and built the so-called Hrelja's Tower, the monastery's defensive tower and its oldest structure surviving today. The inscription on the tower testifies that by the time of its construction Hrelja still acknowledged Serbian suzerainty bearing the tile of protosevast ((Pri državě gospodina prěvysokago Stepana Dušana kraal sьzyda sьn pirgь gospodinь protosevastь Hrelь sь trudomь velikomь i eksodomь svetomu ōtcu Iōanu Rylskomu i materi božii naricaeměi Ōsěnovica vь lěto 6843 indiktiōnь 5). Sometimes between 1336 and the june 1341 Hrelja deserted from the Serbian king Stefan Uroš IV Dušan. In early 1342 he made contact with Kantakuzenos. It is not clear when he first met Hrelja, though he does refer to Hrelja as being a friend for the most part and that it was through his own initiative that Hrelja came to know Andronikos III. (ὁμοίως δὲ καὶ Χρέλης, ὃς ἦν πρότερον πρὸς Ἀνδρόνικον τὸν βασιλέα ηὐτομοληκὼς ἐκ Τριβαλῶν, στρατιώτας τε ἔχων χιλίους καὶ πόλεις τρεῖς παραδεδωκὼς, ἃς Ῥωμαίων οὔσας ὑπηκόους κατὰ τὸν πρὸς ἀλλήλους τῶν Ἀνδρονίκων βασιλέων πόλεμον κατέσχον οἱ Τριβαλοὶ, τῶν κατεχόντων Ῥωμαίων παραδόντων· οὗτος δὴ οὖν ὁ Χρέλης χρήμασί τε ἐῤῥωμένος καὶ στρατιὰν ἔχων ἀξιόλογον ὑφ’ ἑαυτῷ καὶ πρότερον βασιλεῖ τῷ Καντακουζηνῷ ἐς τὰ μάλιστα φίλος ὢν, (δι’ αὐτοῦ γὰρ καὶ Ἀνδρονίκῳ προσῆλθε τῷ βασιλεῖ,) πέμψας καὶ αὐτὸς, ὅτι τε αἱροῖτο ἐδήλου τὰ ἐκείνου, καὶ παρῄνει καὶ αὐτὸς πρὸς τὴν ἑσπέραν μᾶλλον τρέπεσθαι, ὡς οὐ φαύλης τινὸς αὐτόθεν ἐσομένης ὠφελείας). The Kantakuzenos' statement and the fact that he handed over one thousand soldiers and three cities gives a picture of Hrelja's wealthiness, which is confirmed also by the forged charters concerning the Hrelja's donation of the Church of St. Archangel Michael in Štip to the Monastery of Hilandar.
Eksa Bale Person Mentioned in the the so-called „zbirna hrisovulja” of the Serbian Kings Stefan Uroš II Milutin and Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, which has been preserved in four transcripts in the library of the Monastery Hilandar. They are dated between 1303/1304 and 1336/1340-1342/1345. The Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin or Stefan Uroš IV Dušan donated the Armenian Bale Eksa with his children to the Monastery of Hilandar (i člověk u Strumici Bale Eksa, Arměnin, sь dětiju).
Frugopul(os) Person Mentioned in the the so-called „zbirna hrisovulja” of the Serbian Kings Stefan Uroš II Milutin and Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, which has been preserved in four transcripts in the library of the Monastery Hilandar. They are dated between 1303/1304 and 1336/1340-1342/1345. Attested also in in the two variants of the chrysobull charter confirming the donations of Hrelja to the Hilandar Monastery in the area of Štip and Strumica issued by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan. He possessed a settlement site, which appears in the boundary description of the mountain Ōgraždenь (I planina Ōgraždenь i pašište Črьvena polěna. Sinorь Vasilica, sinōrь Stlьbica i Drakšanь i Petrovo i Slivnica i Knjeginja na brězničsky putь i na Frugopolovo selište. The ford named after him was a boundary mark in the delimitation of the mountains Ōgraždeno and Draguljevo with surrounding area, a former land of Stefan Hrelja Dragovol, which was given to the Hilandar Monastery and confirmed by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan after May 1343 (I planina Ōgraždeno i Draguljevo i podьplaninje sь vseju ōblastiju. I megja imь: brodь Stavrakь, niz Veliju rěku, na Frugopulovь brodь/ I planina Ōgraždeno i Draguljevo i podьplaninje sь vseju ōblastiju. I megja imь: brodь Stavrakь, niz Veliju rěku, na Frugopulovь brodь). The ford seems to be in some sort of connection with the settlement site.
Ioskules Michalis Person Mentioned in the boundary description of the river Strumica valley, which was commissioned by the Serbian Despot Ioan Uglješa (Ioannes Unklesis) in January 1371. He was a δοῦλος of the Serbian Despot Ioan Uglješa (Ioannes Unklesis) (Ὁ δοῦλος τοῦ ἁγίου ἡμῶν αὐθέντου τοῦ πανευτυχεστάτου δεσπότου). He judged as καθολικὸς κριτής in 1371 at the behest of the Serbian Despot Ioan Uglješa (Ioannes Unklesis). The Hilandar Monastery was in dispute with the Monastery Hagios Panteleemon about a land in the river Strumica valley. Michalis Ioskules decided that the land should devolve to the Hilandar Monastery. He also established a boundary between both claimants and inserted its description in the charter, which was issued in January 1371.
Ivanь (1) Person Mentioned in the two variants of the chrysobull charter confirming the donations of Hrelja to the Hilandar Monastery in the area of Štip and Strumica issued by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan. The settlement site, which previously belonged to Ivanь, is listed in the boundary description of the village Kunarjane in the narrow place Ključ ((I u Ključi Kunarani i sinoromь: kako teče is planine potokь megju Ključь i Kunarane, tere potokomь u Veliju rěku a po ōnoi strane rěke na Ōzrinь, na mogilice, na lokʼvu, na sadove, na kopišta, na Črьveni brěg, na veli dubь, pravo u rěku. I trьgь Svetago Ilije. I planina Belasica, a megja jei kako grede putь ōtь Ključa u planinu, pravo putemь na vьrhь, na Mutʼnicu, na Debrěvnikь, na Ivanovo selište/ I u Ključi Kunarani i sinoromь: kako teče is planine potokь megju Ključь i Kunarane, tere potokomь u Veliju rěku a po ōnoi strane rěke na Ōzrinь, na mogilice, na lokʼvu, na sadove, na kopišta, na Črьveni brěg, na veli dubь, pravo u rěku. I trьgь Svetago Ilije. I planina Belasica, a megja jei kako grede putь ōtь Ključa u planinu, pravo putemь na vьrhь, na Mutʼnicu, na Debrěvnikь, na Ivanovo selište). The exact location of the settlement site is not known, but was probably somewhere near the present village of Platanakia.
Kar’ba Person Mentioned in the the so-called „zbirna hrisovulja” of the Serbian Kings Stefan Uroš II Milutin and Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, which has been preserved in four transcripts in the library of the Monastery Hilandar. They are dated between 1303/1304 and 1336/1340-1342/1345. Attested also in the chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Hilandar Monastery concerning the village Karbinci from the 8th June 1355. He became a land and a pasture from the Serbian King Stefan Uroš III Dečanski. He built and decorated the Church of Saint Petka near the river Bregalnica with his own hands. He endowed it with vineyard, field and hayfields and gave it to the Hilandar Monastery. The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed the donation and approved the claims of the Hilandar Monastery on the property. He also exempted the subordinates of Kar’b and all free people, who wished to settle near the church, from all the services for the Serbian king (I pride[a] kraljevьstvo mi crьkvь svetu Petku na Brěgalnici, što jestь zidalь Kar’ba samь svoima rukama i sь trudomь pace i popisьlь i ukrasilь krasotami crьkvnimi, da jestь metohь svete Bogorodice hilan’dar’ske sь vinogradomь i sь nivjemь i sěnokosi, pače i pašišta i zemlja, što mu je dalь gospodinь i roditelь kraljevьstva mi, i tu da si ima crьkvь. I kto si poljubi ōd jegověhь ljudi ili kto svobodьnь člověkь da grede svobodno pod crьkvь svetu Petьku. I kraljevьstvo mi ōsvobodi ōnezi ljudi ōt vsěhь rabotь kraljevьstva mi malihь i velikihь, jakože i više pisano). The villages on his land were subject of dispute between the monks of the Hilandar Monastery and the guards of emperor. The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV sent David Mihojević, the kefalija (governor) of Štip, in order to determine the boundaries of the disputed land. He issued a chrysobull charter on this occasion and confirmed, that Hilandar Monastery has the right over the land with the boundaries determined by David Mihojević (Ima htěnije i povelěva carьstvō mi da je vědomo vsakomu kako pridě igumenь v’sečьstьni světogorski Bogorodice hilandarske Dorothei i sь star’ci i govori carьstvu mi ō selě zem’li Kar’bin’čkoi kao je ima crьkovь u hrisovuli a sьgi je ne drьže. I sьprěše se z bьci carьstva mi predь mnomь što su na toizi zem’li Kar’binьčkoi i carьstvo mi vь to vrěme ne ōbrěte nigde dati bьcemь da se prěselě i poslah kjefaliju štip’skoga Davida Mihojevikja igumena i star’ce i tezi bьce da s kraja ōdtešu crьkvi i utьkme. I prišdь Davidь spovedь carьstvu mi kako jestь megju nimi utьk’milь i ōdtesali zemlju kude mi spoved Davidь).
Laskar Person Identical with Laskar Siderofag? Mentioned in the Charter of Danilь, the Bishop of Vodoča and Strumica, and Grigorije, the Bishop of Banьska from 1375/1376. His bought estate, which was 10 spindle in size, was in the vicinity of the village Prosěnikovo (ob lěvu stranu kupljenice Laskareve što je 10 vrětenь).
Laskaris, Konstantinos Palaiologos Person It is very unlikely that he was identical with Konstantinos Laskaris, who was a resident at Serres in 1377. He was the issuer of the donation deed for the Saint Panteleimon Monastery on Mount Athos from June 1374. The charter refers to him as κῦρ and δοῦλος of the Byzantine Emperor Ioannes V Palaiologos. He was the son of Makarios Laskaris Koteanitzes. His brothers were Georgios Laskaris and Leon Koteanitzes Laskaris. He inherited the village Mpresnitza near the town of Strumica from his mother. His father donated in 1364 the village Mpresnitza to the Saint Panteleimon Monastery on Mount Athos. The monks from the Hilandar Monastery accused his father of unlawful seizure of their land. Konstantinos Palaiologos Laskaris appealed the case to the patriarchal tribunal requesting to nullify the donation on account of the inalienability of the dowry. After he received a favourable decision from the patriarch, he confirmed in June 1374 the donation of the village Mpresnitza to the Saint Panteleimon Monastery on Mount Athos as legal (τὸ μητρόθεν μοι περιελθὸν εἰς κληρονομίαν χωρίον περὶ τὴν Στρούμπιτζαν μὲν εὐρισκόμενον, Μπρέσνιτζαν δὲ ἐπονομαζόμενον, μετὰ πάσης ἧς νῦν ἔχει νομῆς καὶ περιοχῆς).
Laskaris, Makarios Koteanitzes Person Mentioned in the two variants of the chrysobull charter confirming the donations of Hrelja to the Hilandar Monastery in the area of Štip and Strumica issued by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan and in the decision of the Protaton on Mount Athos from December 1370. Died before 1374. He appeared as κῦρ in the decision of the Protaton on Mount Athos from December 1370. He was a monk. He was the father of Konstantinos Palaiologos Laskaris, Georgios Laskaris and Leon Koteanitzes Laskaris. He donated in 1364 the village Mpresnitza to the Saint Panteleimon Monastery on Mount Athos. The monks from the Hilandar Monastery accused him of an unlawful seizure of their land (οὗ τινος δὴ χωρίου γῆ προσηνέχθη μετὰ τοῦ δηλωθέντος χρυσοβούλλου παρὰ τοῦ ἐν μοναχοῖς κῦρ Μακαρίω Λάσκαρη τοῦ Κοτεανίτζη, ὅπερ μετὰ δολιότητος διὰ τὸ κλαπῆναι καὶ τὸ χρυσόβουλλον παρὰ τῶν δηλωθέντων Ῥωσῶν, καὶ συναρπαγεῖς ὁ Λάσκαρις ἐξέδοτο καὶ πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὁ τοιοῦτος τόπος). They insisted on their claim on the grounds of a chrysobull granted to their monastery. The Protaton on Mount Athos gathered in December 1370 at the behest of the Serbian Despot Ioan Uglješa (Ioannes Unklesis) ruled the dispute over the village of Mpresnitza in favour of the Hilandar Monastery. Makarios Koteanitzes Laskaris probably possessed also the village of Sekirnik and a parcel of land (Selište Sekir’nik i komat zemlje što jestь drьžalь Laskarь Kotanicь/Selo Sěkir’nykь i zem’lja što jestь drьžalь Laskarь Kotanicь).
Rudlь (1) Person He is the subject of the Stefan Uroš IV Dušan's Charter for the Μonastery of Hilandar from 28 March 1343. Rudlь was a nobleman, whose centre of interest was the town of Strumica (vlastelina grada togo Rudla). At the time of the siege of the town Strumica by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan he supported the Serbians (I kraljevstvu mi prěemʼšu gradь Strumicu, i ōbrětʼšu kraljevьstvu mi u gradu tomь vlastelina grada togo Rudla, i za egovo poljublenie i porabotanie vь takovoe vrěme). He founded the Church of the Virgin Hodegetria probably in Strumica. The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan carried out his wish and subordinated him with his church, with the village of Boruevo, a donation of the king, with his patrimonial properties near the town, with the settlement site Robovo, which was a gift from Hrelja, and with his all bought estates to the Monastery of Hilandar (I poljubii voleju i hotěniemь svoimь, a sь milostiju kraljevstva mi da estь člověkь svetyje Bogorodice Hilandarskye Rudlь sь vsěmь svoimь, sь crьkvomь si Ōdigitriōm, iže estь sьzdalь trudomь svoimь, i sь vsěmi pravinami selo Boruevo što mu estь dalo kraljevstvo mi, s ljudmi i sь vsomь baštinomь svoōmь, i što si ima u gradu i u Banstě dvě nivě i voděnica, sь ljudmi i sь livadami i sь selištemь eže mu estь dalь Hrelja Robovo, sь vsěmi pravinami, i sь kupeničiemь, i sь vsěmь těmь što si ima u gradu i u poli, sь vsěmь těm ga priloži i zapisa kraljevьstvo mi Bogorodici Hilandarskoi, da estь do věka crьkvny, nikymь neōtьjemljemo doma svetyje Bogorodice Hilandarskye, a Rudlь svoe vʼse da drži do smrʼti, a po smrti jego da estь crьkovno).
Siderofai Laskarь Person Mentioned in the two variants of the chrysobull charter confirming the donations of Hrelja to the Hilandar Monastery in the area of Štip and Strumica issued by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, in the Charter of Danilь, the Bishop of Vodoča and Strumica, and Grigorije, the Bishop of Banьska from 1375/1376 and in the charter of the Serbian Despot Jovan and Konstantin Dragaš and their mother Evdokija for the Monastery Hagios Panteleemon on Mount Athos from 1376/1377. He was a pronoiarios. He possessed along with Tutko Asanь the settlement site Štuka and a parcel of land. In the second variant of the inauthentic chrysobull charter is the land held by Laskarь Siderofai and Tutko Asanь described only as neighbouring the village Sekirnik (Selište Štuka i komatь zemlje što su drьžali pronijarije grьčьscïi Tut’ko, Asanь, Laskarь Siderofai, konь Sekir’nika do potoka i više puta i podь putь i niže krьsta/ i zemlju što su drьžali pronijarije grьčьsci Tutko, Asanь, Laskarь Siderofai, konь Sěkir’nika do potoka i više puta i podь putь i niže krьsta). A land near Strumica, the church of the priest Simona Prьkja and an area in its vicinity, which belonged to Laskarь Siderofai and Tutko Asanь, were the subject of a land dispute between the Hilandar Monastery and the Monastery Hagios Panteleemon on the Holy Mount Athos. An arbitration-comitee was summoned at the behest of the Serbian Despot Konstantin Dragaš to resolve the conflict. Danilь, Bishop of Vodoča and Strumica, Grigorije, the Bishop of Banьska, and Stanko, the Pristav of the governor of Strumica, deliminated the boundary between both litigants in the presence of witnesses (o zemli konь Strumice i crkvi popa Simona Prьkje i zemli Laskara Siderofaga i Tutkově). According to the charter of the bishops a gathering of noblemen and people witnessed in the time of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan that the land of Tutko Asanь and Laskarь Siderofai did not extend as far as the village of Mokrievo and Mokrani (Tokožde i za zemlju Laskara Siderofaga i Tutkovu – ně bila u grьčkje d’ni s Makrijevom ni s Mokrani, i pri cari Stefaně znamo: uze gusa konje careve i ljudi izbiše, i posla carь da plati okolina priselicu, i izide okolina vsa, vlastele i hora, i rekoše prěd gospodinom caremь Stepanom: ničija od nasь zemlja ně, tьkmo Hilandarska, i dalь ju je Hrelia kjesarь Hilandaru, i imaju siju u hrisvuli cara Stepana). In 1376/77 the mother of the Serbian Despots Jovan and Konstantin Dragaš, Evdokija, donated together with her sons the village of Mokrievo with boundaries, summer pasture, mountain, vineyards, fruit trees, watermill, vegetable gardens, field, meadow, hunting grounds, river and fords and the land of Tutko and Siderofaiev to the Monastery Hagios Panteleemon on Mount Athos (Selo Makrijevo sinoromь, sь planinomь, zь brьdomь, sь vinogradi, s voštьjemь, sь vodeničьjemь, sь kipurijami, sь poljemь, sь lugomь, sь lovišti, sь rekomь, zь brodovi, i zemlju Tutkovu i zemlju Sideropsajevu).
Stavrakь Person Mentioned in the two variants of the chrysobull charter confirming the donations of Hrelja to the Hilandar Monastery in the area of Štip and Strumica issued by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan and in the prostagma charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Hilandar Monastery. A ford named after Stavrakь is attested in the boundary description of an area near the mountain Ōgraždeno and Draguljevo, former possessions of Stefan Hrelja Dragovol, which were donated to the Chilandar Monastery and confirmed by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (I planina Ōgraždeno i Draguljevo i podьplaninьje sь vseju ōblastiju. I megja imь: brodь Stavrakь, niz Veliju rěku/ I planina Ōgraždeno i Draguljevo i podьplaninje sь vseju ōblastiju. I megja imь: brodь Stavrakь, niz Veliju rěku). The same ford appears in the boundary description, which was executed by the čelnik Branilo in order to determine the owner rights of the Hilandar Monastery over an area in the Strumica region. Braniloʼs findings were the subject matter of the prostagma charter issued by the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (I utesaše megju brodь Stavrakь nizь Veliju rěku upada Vasilica).
Tetragonit Person Mentioned in the the so-called „zbirna hrisovulja” of the Serbian Kings Stefan Uroš II Milutin and Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, which has been preserved in four transcripts in the library of the Monastery Hilandar. They are dated between 1303/1304 and 1336/1340-1342/1345. His probably abandoned place in Strumica was granted to the Monastery of Hilandar as a metochion, on which a church and houses were expected to be built (I město u Strumici Tetragonitove, da učini crьkvь i kuke, da jestь metohь svetije Bogorodice hilandarske).
