Darknesses over the Bistrica. On some unacceptable interpretations of the history of Prizren and its monuments

Dragan Vojvodic, Srdjan Pirivatric

The paper discusses some recently proposed views on the religious landscape of medieval Prizren and the region it belonged to, the history of some Serbian churches in this city in Metohija, and the claim that the staurotheke of King Milutin of Serbia and Bishop Grigorije II of Ras, now in the Dominican Monastery in Dubrovnik, was donated to a church dedicated to St. Peter in Prizren. It is shown that those views and opinions have no basis in the sources and are a result of unsound methodology and ignoring securely ascertained facts in a bid to reshape tendentiously the image of the past.
