Two Liturgical Disks Offered by Stephen the Great and Radu the Great to Monasteries from Greece

Abstract

The present text focuses on two liturgical discs preserved in monasteries of Northern Greece. One of them was originally donated by Moldavian Prince Stephen the Great to Gregoriou Monastery on Mt. Athos. Sometime in the past, it was moved to St. Dionysios Monastery on Mt. Olympus (where it is currently kept), under unspecified conditions. The other disc bears an original dedication possibly by Prince Radu the Great of Wallachia. It was subsequently dedicated by Metropolitan Matthew to the Metropolis of Dovra (where it is currently kept).
