ON THE BATTLE OF VELBUZD

Toma Tomov
The text is based on various sources ranging from the chronics to
some old legends about the battle which have survived in the South
western Bulgarian lands. On the basis of these sources and after a
16

critical analysis of historical literature the author concludes that the

battle has legalized the Serbian dominance over Macedonia and has
opened the gates for further Serbian expansion in Southern, East
southern and Western direction. Regarding the Serbian-Bulgarian
border it only has been slightly changed. Probably the district of Mraka
has fallen in Serbian hands for a while. In this case the border has been
set from Chemernik along the valley of Treklyanska river crossing the
Mrakata district, following the line Peshtera and Monastery St. Nikola of
Orehovo (in Serbian hands) Zhablyan Izvor Zhitusha Zhedna
Kondofrey, and then from Vladimir and Dolna Dikanya, following the
upper course of river Arkata reaching the Verila mountain.
