Description

The Serbian King Stefan Uroš IV Dušan (reigned 1331-1355) donated the hamlet of Karbinci with all its boundaries to the Monastery of Hilandar after 1343 (i zaselьkь Kar’bin’ci sь vsěmь sinoromь). The villages on the land of Karba were the subject of a dispute between the monks of the Monastery of Hilandar and the guards (bьci) of the Emperor. The Serbian Emperor Stefan Dušan sent David Mihojević, the kefalija (governor) of Štip, in order to determine the boundaries of the disputed land. He issued a charter on this occasion and confirmed that Monastery of Hilandar 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). The possession of the village of Karbinci with all its rights by the Monastery of Hilandar was confirmed by the Serbian Emperor Stefan Dušan in 1348 (I na Bregalnici selo Karbin’ci sь pravinami si). In the charter of the Serbian Despot Konstantin Dragaš from 1388/89, concerning the endowment of the Duke Dmitrь for the Monastery of Hilandar, the village of Karbinci is attested in the boundary description of the village of Kozijak (A se megja sela toga Kozijaka: tere na gradište vse po dělu megju Arьgjuricomь i megju Karьbinьci). The village of Karbinci is registered in the Defters for the Sanjak Köstendil in 1519, 1550 and from the years 1570 to 1572.

Karbinci Source The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed the donation of the village Karbince for the Monastery of Hilandar in June 1355.
Stefan Uroš IV Dušan's General Charter for the Monastery of Hilandar Source The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan's issued the so-called "General Charter (Opšta hrisovulja)" to the Monastery of Hilandar, through which he confirmed all previous donations and records of the land-inventory of the monastery. Although the charter bears the date 1348, it is with the utmost probability not an original. Lidija Slaveva considers the charter to be a copy that was written after the year 1365.
Štip St. Archangel Michael 2 Source The present charter is a falsified document of Stefan Uroš IV Dušan, which confirms the donation of the Church of St. Archangel Michael in Štip to the Monastery of Chilandar. The date given in the document is the year 1336, but, based on the king's signature and the changes in the typologies of the mentioned settlements, it seems that it has to be dated in the years before the coronation of Stefan Dušan to emperor (i.e. 1343 to 1345).
