Description

The Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin (reigned 1282-1321) donated the village of Avazgovō to the Monastery of Saint George-Gorg near Skopje in the year 1300 (Avazgovō pod Moroїzvizdomь eže prida kÿrь Manoilь carь, s vinogradi, s nivijem, sь sěnokosi, s pašišti, sь letovišti, sь zimovišti, i sь mlini, sь planinomь i sь vsěmi pravinami). In this charter it is stated that Avazgovō had been previously given to the same monastery by the Byzantine Emperor Manuel I Komnenos (reigned 1143-1180). Its localisation in our database is made according to the context of the written source, in which the village of Morozvizd (today Morodvis) is also mentioned.
