	cr͂e bol͛gar͛stem	In this chapter, car is translated as 'emperor', as Paisius (and most of CS literature) did not make a difference between gr. basileus and kaisar, which is, of course, an important political statement of his work - that Greek and Bulgarian emperors were equals by rank.

105:	ʾi	Punčo here omits the story of Scandians (skandavlane), Western neighbors of Moscowians, later expanding to ʺthe land of Bradibura on the Baltic shoreʺ - in Chronicle, these are later called slavęni, the ones with the ʺpurestʺ language, who accepted the mission of Cyrill and Method, and later fell under the rule of Rome and the German Emperor (Zogr. 43: 8v).

108:	ʾi mnogo réči podóbni na blьgar͛ski ʾezikь besedat †
109:	Píše	Punčo omits further the account of a war between the slavęni against moskali i rusi, after which the former settled as far as Volga, from which the Bulgars, according to Paisius, took their name.

119:	i va malo vreme stanáxu blь´gare na zemlju grь´českuju	Punčo omits the backstory - according to Paisius, Bulgars looked for arable land, settling along Lower Danube and Pannonia. He identifies them with Goths, who indeed moved across Danube in 376.
120:	ʾi činíxu pákostь grьkomь
121:	ʾi zato
	stánu cr̃ь grь´čki uʾalen͛tь sasь voĭsku na níxь	Zogr. 43: poiišelъ
122:	no sásь pomoštь bž͂ïju nadvíli blь´gari cr̃u ualen͛tu	Likely referring to the Battle of Adrianople (378) where Valens was defeated by Goths led by Fritigern. Zogr. 43 (9r) also includes the date, which is *toi* (378) indeed.
123:	ʾá wnь pobégalь da bi utékalь
124:	ʾwní go goníli do ʾedrené

128:	takóĭ piše va deʾjánïe egw`
129:	tako ʾi bilo ʾestь ne lь´žno,	In Zogr. 43, another story follows: Valens calls Goths to cross Danube against Bulgars. Paisius cites another text (apparent from Ivanov's edition), and then interprets it, that Greeks used the term ʺGothsʺ for Bulgars.
130:	Zrì deʾjánïe ʾixь či̇tátelju	Punčo omits the resolution of the war under Theodosius.
131:	ʾi poznaĭ ʾistinu čto zdé vь krat͛ce napisa-xomь.
132:	Bátoja králь sil͛ni ʾi xrábri sïirečь ʾjunakь na bóĭ	Cf. Zogr. 43:11r In a passage omitted by Punčo (Zogr. 43:12v), the beginning of Batoi's reign is specified to year *xoi*, i.e. 678, and as vъ vreme šestago sobora, i.e. 680-681. The dates coincide with those of Khan Asparukh. Chronographia of Sigibert (11th c.) indeed gives the name Batius to Asparukh. The name may also denote Batbayan, another son of Khan Kubrat, who remained under Khazar rule, after the latter conquered Volga region in 668.
	uzelь zemlju wt níška drьžáva ʾi skop͛ska ʾi wxrit͛ska ʾi patríar͛šïja	Naissus and Macedonia were conquered by Khan Presian (ruling 836-852). Life of St. Demetrius mentions Kuber (possibly another son of Kubrat), settling in Macedonia in 680s.
133:	ʾi postavílь stólь va ʾwxritь grádь	Actually, Ohrid was made capital by Tsar Samuil (997-1014).
134:	ʾi trivélïa st̃i kral bílь	Khan Tervel (700-721) ruled after Asparukh. Possibly called a saint for his help against the Muslim siege of Constantinople led by caliph Sulayman (717-718).
135:	uzelь vьsa maџárska zémlja	Khan Krum (803-814) conquered large portions of today's Hungary from the crumbling Avar Khaganate. His successor Omurtag (814-831) defeated Magyars (or Khazars) on Dnieper in 824.
136:	ʾizdálï ju blьgári	Zogr. 43: zapovedali
137:	za mnóga leta daváli maџári dánokь
138:	paki cr̃ь krunь ʾi ʾi
	mixáĭlь uzeli wt grь´ci drьžávu	Paisius likely means Boris (852-889), whose baptismal name was Michael.
	sofísku ʾi	Sofia (Sredets) was conquered by Krum in 809 and remained in BG hands until the fall of the first kingdom.
	filibelísku ʾi samokóvsku ʾi	Philippopolis (Plovdiv) was first taken by Krum, but it remained contested. Boris-Michael lost it in 855, but reconquered it, and it remained in BG hands until deep into 10th century.
	štip͛sku ʾi strumícu ʾi	Strumica (the town) and Shtip were taken by Khan Presian and remained under BG authority until the end of the first kingdom. Paisius likely means Krum's campaign in Struma valley (807), mentioned below.
	edrenè	Khan Kardam, predecessor of Krum, defeated Byzantines at Adrianople in 791. Krum defeated them again here in 813. The city was first captured for a longer period by Emperor Simeon in 921. It was taken and plundered once more by Samuil in 1003.
139:	ʾi na-selíli po tía stráni blь´gar͛ski, naródь
140:	ʾi sedutь blь´gare támo ʾi do dne͒
141:	Pósle
	ʾiwanь	Variants of CS Ioannъ are used for both Bulgarian and Greek rulers by Paisius (and Punčo). Our translation uses 'Ivan' for Bulgarian and 'John' for Greek ones, as it is usual in English.
	kalimanь sínь	Paisius possibly confuses Kaloyan (1196-1207), Kaliman (1241-1246) and Ivan Asen II (1218-1241) called by him ioanъ asěnъ kalimanъ (Zogr. 43:31v). Kaloyan defeated Crusaders at Adrianople in 1205, conquering parts of Macedonia including Serres, but he could not hold it for long. Ivan Asen II conquered large parts of Empire of Thessalonica in 1230 and vassalized the rest. The two seem to be also identified by Euthymius in his Life of St. Petka, which Paisius cites as his source (Zogr. 43:32v).
	cr̃ь ʾásénovь uzélь wt grь´ci drьžáva	Zogr. 43: ioanъ kalimanъ sinъ asěnana c-ra starago Punčo's handling of the possessive construction reminds that of Berlin damaskin, marking only one element of the noun phrase - vъ dine+te soltan selimovi vtori 'in the days of Sultan Selim II'.
	dram͛ska ʾi ser͛ska ʾi	Serres and Drama were taken from the Latin Empire by Kaloyan, but they were lost after the death of Ivan Asen II, and the Mongol invasions in 1240s to Nicaeans.
	melniš͛ka ʾi	The area of Melnik was conquered already by Khan Presian. After the rise of Asen brothers, it became a seat of an independent county. Ivan Asen II incorporated it into the Second Kingdom, but it was lost to Nicaeans after his death.
	solunska	Both Empire of Thessalonica and Epirus Despotate became vassals of Ivan Asen II. However, both were lost after his death.
142:	ʾi ʾiskarálь wt tamo grь´ci
143:	ʾi naselíli se blь´gari
144:	takoi ʾi do dnésь po wnïa zemli živéjut blь´gare	This part of the chronicle (Zogr. 43:11v) was historically very important: it formulates the claim, which Bulgaria tried to assert in 1913 and both world wars. After her defeats, the Slavic (be they called Bulgarian or Macedonian) population in the area was expelled from the territories controlled by Greece.
145:	posle beše, drugi králь	Punčo omits the background of the story - rebellion of Bulgars (led by Alcek) in Pannonia against Magyars (Avars), their migration to Frankish Empire, and their slaughter. He also switches to verbal imperfects for two sentences.
	vukíčь	In the list of kings at the end of the chapter, Vukič is the first one, followed by Dragič, Boris, and first then Batoi. See the lemma entry in dictionary for possible identification.
146:	vь léto
	*ѵn*	Zogr. 43: has *ѵi* (ižica, not vědě), i.e. 408, other sources *ѵn* (450). Possibly 708 (Cyrilli ·ѱн·) in the original?
	napadnaxu drúgago	Zogr. 43: napali
	var͛da králja što béše ʾizbílь dévetь xíljadi blьgare	Likely Dagobert, king of Franks - either the first or second. See the lemma for more information.
147:	ʾi nadvili mu sasь bŏi
148:	ʾi wpleníli, vsu negovu	Possibly an allusion to Samo's raids against Dagobert after the latter's defeat at Wogastisburg?
	zemlju	Zogr. 43: sva negova zemla
149:	ʾi
	posle ʾimali blьgare drugago kneza sebe	Zogr. 43: v leto *ѵče* (495)
	dragíča	See lemma for possible explanations of the name.
150:	ʾi padli na frángïju ʾi na	Cesare Baronio (cited from Nikolov 2014): Pridoša na ego iz polunoštnyx stran bolgary i Frakiju [Thrace] voevaxu: na nixže egda posla Arista illiričeskago voinstva vožda, ljute poraziša ego nad rekoju Zurtoju, ideže perveišix krepkix voev bolee četyrex tysjašt pade. To uslyšav Anastasii posla bolgarom mnogo zlata i bogatyja dary imiže do vremene mir kupi.
	ʾаlerika	Zogr. 43: ilirikъ Thus in all other versions. Goths led by Alaric followed Emperor Theodosius in 394 against Franks, but this is clearly a Punčo's typo.
151:	i razzbíli voisku grь´českuju
152:	ʾi pobíli *ѵ* xilʾjádi grь´ci
153:	i wplenïli mlogo zémlju ʾi narodь grь´česki
154:	ʾi posle se uboʾjálь, cr̃ь
	ʾánastásïa	Likely Anastasius Dicorus (491-518), at whose time Bulgars raided Thrace.
155:	ʾi pratilь mnogo srebrò ʾi zláto blьgaromь ʾi dari mnógocení
156:	ʾi ʾisprosílь sébe mirь

	ʾanastasiju †	Punčo omits some accounts about kings Dragič and Tervel (trivelъ, Zogr. 43:12v-14v).
158:	Posle po ʾánastásïja cr̃a nastanul͛ sul͛tanь sulimánь tur͛ski	Zogr. 43 (15r): a sulimanъ sultanъ turskii sъ silna voiska i oselii carii gradъ za tri lěta A sidenote in Zogr. 43 dates the event to 707 (*ѱз*, a iota was possibly faded, as caliph Sulayman besieged the city in 717).
159:	ʾi tóĭ

173:	ʾizredenь veledš̃enь ï bl̃gopolučenь vь voin͛stvo
174:	toʾjá bílь ne verni
175:	no ʾjáko smiril grь´ci
176:	ʾi razširílь, drьžávu zémlju
	blьgar͛skïa	The form goes back to a long f.pl.gen ending (-yę), cf. Zogr. 43: raširililъ državu zemlii bolъgarskie
177:	što su bilí, prédь kruna cr͂ie blьgar͛ski sve su bílï bl͂gopolúčni ʾi po junáci wt grь´ci	Zogr. 43: što bili nekoliko cari bolъgarski prežde ego ne+blago_polučni i odolenii ot grci - i.e. 'not fortunate and defeated by Greeks' Although the information on BG khans between Tervel and Kardam is more or less limited to the data from Nominalia, short reigns and changing dynasties are signs of internal turmoil.

250:	ʾi dalь svoju dьšterь desétoletnuju za sña ʾáleѯan͛drova, ʾiwʾana šišmána	Paisius surely means Irene Palaiologina (1327-1399), daughter of Andronicus III, who was betrothed to Michael, first son of Ivan Alexander, in 1336. They married later, but produced no children. After her husbands death (1355), she became a nun.

284:	ʾI vь to vreme xotélь sul͛tánь murátь da dígne vóĭsku na blь´garíju	Murad ruled from 1362 until his death on the Kosovo Pole in 1389. In 1352 his older brother Sulayman captured Gallipoli and started raiding Thrace. Murad himself did not lead a major campaign against Bulgaria during the reign of Ivan Alexander.
285:	ʾáleѯándrïa mu dálь ʾednu, svoju dь´šterь za ženù	Ivan Shishman gave his sister, Kera Tamara, to Murad in 1373, regaining some territories already captured by Turks. The peace lasted until early 1380s. Paisius may also mean Keratsa, who was wed to future Emperor Andronicus IV in 1355, to form a Bulgaro-Byzantine alliance against Turks.
286:	ʾi tako ʾimali mírь sasь sul͛tanь muráta tur͛skago	First major clashes of Bulgars and Ottomans were battles of Sofia (1349), where Alexander's son Ivan Asen died, and Ixtiman (1355), which claimed his heir Michael. As a sultan, Murad did not attack BG heartland until 1370s.
287:	ʾi nešto malo vréme cr̃ьstvuváli

	*#atѯg*	Thus in all sources. Ivan Alexander actually lived until 1371. Paisius' source possibly confused it with the date of fall of Edirne to Ottomans or the battle of Chernomen.
289:	ʾi wstávilь ʾaleѯándria, tri, sínove strašímira ʾi
	ʾasena ʾi šišmána iʾw´ana	Paisius likely means the younger Ivan Asen, son of Alexander by his second wife, killed by Turks in 1388, possibly defending Urvich (see below; the first son by this name from Theodora died in 1349).

296:	ʾi naložílь dánokь na grь´ci
297:	zato ʾwni prìzváxu muráta sa͒ molénïe velíkoe na blь´gare	An important element in the anti-Greek narrative of the Chronicle. Paisius below makes Manuel II (ruling 1391-1425) responsible. However, the claim is possibly based on an earlier case. John Kantakouzenos allied with Sultan Orhan in 1345 against young John V, supported also by Serbia and Bulgaria. Ottomans supported him in the second war against John V (1352-1357) too.
298:	ʾi príšélь murátь sasь velíka vois͛ka tur͛ska na blьgarīa po črь´no móre ʾi po suxo	Here Paisius possibly means the expedition of Amadeus VI of Savoy, as ally of Byzantines, against Ottomans in 1366. Besides Gallipoli, he conquered multiple cities on the Bulgarian seashore too, turning them over to Byzantines, who then paid financial compensation for them to Alexander.
299:	ʾi razdelí se voiska

302:	tako ʾiwanь šíšmanь ʾi dva bráta negóvi stašìmirь ʾi asénь bíli se krep͛ko s muráta	Paisius is likely referring here to the earlier battles of Sofia (1349) and Ixtiman (1355). At least in Ixtiman the Turks scored a tactical victory, but they could not continue their campaign. It may also mean attacks following battle of Chernomen: Shishman defended Sofia with success, but in 1373 became a vassal of Murad.
303:	ʾi nadvíli mu

306:	no na taʾjá voĭska ubíli turci ʾásena bráta šišmánova	This also indicates, that Paisius is speaking about the battle of Sofia or Ixtiman. However, it may reflect the death of the second Ivan Asen in 1388, following the invasion of Murad's vizier Ali Pasha Chandarli.
307:	takò ʾi druga ta vóĭska tur͛ska što išlà na vlaxíju pobili vlási svè do ʾedínago	The first major clash between Wallachia and Ottomans was the battle of Rovine (1395), in which Mircea the Great defeated Bayezid.

Earlier, Manuel was held as a hostage at the Ottoman court and participated in conquest of Philadelphia (1390), one of the last Byzantine holdings in Anatolia. However, Murad was already dead by then.
314:	va tóĭ vréme strašímírь ʾi cr̃ь šišmánь ʾimáli ráspra meždu, sébe	Possibly referring to the war between Ivan Shishman and Dan I of Wallachia, supported by Sratsimir (1384-1386). In 1385, Turks captured Sofia.

Sratsimir did not seem to have helped in any of the two.

On the other hand, reigns of both Alexander and Shishman are famous for literature too.

Shishman actually took the throne at the time and did not participate in the battle, as mentioned above.

Vidin was conquered shortly afterwards and Sratsimir was captured, vanishing from historical records. Many other prominent Bulgarians, e.g. George Tsamblak, found refuge in Moldova.

439:	*a* králь vukičь	Legendary king. Should have fought Franks in 408 AD and imposed tax on Emperor Anastasius (491-518; Zogr. 43:12r).
440:	*v* králь dragíčь	Legendary king, brother of Vukich. Should have assumed the throne in 495 AD.
441:	*g* kral borísь	Legendary king, successor of Dragich. Should have defeated and captured Theoderic, king of Magyars (the Great of Goths, 493-526?) at the time of Emperor Justin (518-527; Zogr. 43:12v). Omitted by Punčo in the main text.
442:	*d* králь batoja síl͛ni ʾi junačni	Probably Asparukh (681-701). According to Paisius, he should have ruled from 678 or the time of Sixth Ecumenical Council (680-681), and fought a war with Justinian II (probably only first reign: 685-695; Zogr. 43:12v).
443:	*e* králь st̃i trivelíʾjá	Tervel (700-721). According to Paisius he restored Justinian II to his throne (in 705). Should have converted to Christianity in 703 AD (Zogr. 43:15r).
444:	*ź* králь terbálь sinь trívelïʾinь	Not mentioned in the main text. Probably just another spelling of Tervel's name. Dobrev (1995) in his analysis of a corrupted entry in Nominalia adds a khan Tviremik after Tervel, with a reference to Paisius.
445:	*z* králь moiséĭ sínь trívelïinь	Not mentioned in the main text. Moisei was a name of one of the Cometopuli, who died in a battle in 977 in Serres.

449:	da réčemь ʾi za cr̃ie kolíko su bilì
450:	prь´vi cr̃ь ʾásenь blьgárski	Also based on Khan Tervel. According to Paisius (Zogr. 43:16r), Emperor Leo (III) Isaurian gave the imperial crown to Asen for his support against Arabs. It was likely Tervel, who helped Byzantines against Arabs, but he received the title kaisar (not 'emperor', but more a 'viceroy' of basileus) earlier - from Justinian II, after he helped him regain his throne in 705.
451:	*v* cr̃ь dobríca	Likely Vinekh (756-762). According to Paisius (Zogr. 43:16v), he should have been a contemporary of Leo III (717-741), but also should have defeated Byzantine invasion, only to be murdered by boyars afterwards - the story seems to reflect context of the battle of Veregava (759).
452:	*g* cr̃ь telezvía	Telets (762-765). Paisius (Zogr. 43:17r) considers him a contemporary of Constantine V called Kopronimъ ('Dung-Named'), whom he attacked, but was defeated at Anchialos (763). and deposed by boyars.
453:	*d* cr̃ь sabínь	Sabin (765-766; Zogr. 43:17r).
454:	*e* cr̃ь subotínь	In Paisius' text (Zogr. 43:24v), Subotin succeeds Seleucis during the turbulent 970s. Both names are otherwise known only from Orbini.
455:	*ź* cr̃ь tagánь	Pagan (767-768; Zogr. 43:17v).
456:	*z* cr̃ь teleríkь	Telerig (768-777; Zogr. 43:17v).
457:	*i* cr̃ь kardámь	Kardam (777-803; Zogr. 43:19r).
458:	*ѳ* cr̃ь kr̃unь	Krum (803-814; Zogr. 43:19r).
459:	*ı* cr̃ь mixáĭlь	Based on Omurtag (indicated by his original name Murtagonъ, 814-831) and Boris I, who was baptized as Michael (852-889). Paisius considers him a brother of Krum (Zogr. 43:21r, 50v).
460:	*aı* cr̃ь siméwˇnь	Simeon I (893-921), called Simeonъ Labasъ by Paisius (Zogr. 43:24r).
461:	*vı* cr̃ь pétrь	Peter I (927-969; Zogr. 43:26v).
462:	*gı* cr̃ь borísь	Boris II (969-971; Zogr. 43:27v).
463:	*dı* cr̃ь selévkïa	The name appears first in Orbini's book. Perhaps based on Nicholas, father of Cometopuli Brothers, lord of Serdica in 970s. Should have been succeeded by Subotin (Zogr. 43:24r).
464:	*eı* cr̃ь dvyd	David of the Cometopuli (976). The account (Zogr. 43:24v) is more likely based on Roman, son of Peter I (977-991), who abdicated in favor of Samuel.
465:	*źı* cr̃ь samóĭlь	Samuel (997-1014; Zogr. 43:24v).
466:	*zı* cr̃ь radomírь	Gavril Radomir (1014-1015; Zogr. 43:25v).
467:	*iı* cr̃ь st̃ı ʾiwănь	Ivan Vladislav (1015-1018), called Ioan Vladimir by Paisius (Zogr. 43:25v).
468:	*ѳı* cr̃ь dolánь	Peter Delyan, leader of a short-lived uprising for the restoration of Bulgaria in 1040-1041 (Zogr. 43:26v).
469:	*k* cr̃ь ʾálusianь	Alusian, a contemporary of Delyan (Zogr. 43:27r). Paisius also mentions Tixomirъ, another contender for the throne, killed by Delyan in 1041.
470:	*ka* cr̃ь ʾasénь	Ivan Asen I (1186-1196; Zogr. 43:27v).
471:	*kv* cr̃ь petrь vtóri	Peter Asen, co-ruling with Ivan Asen I (Zogr. 43:31v).
472:	*kg* cr̃ь ʾiwan kaliman	Based on Kaloyan (1196-1207), son of Asen, and Ivan Asen II (1218-1241), Kaloyan's nephew (Zogr. 43:31v).
473:	*kd* cr̃ь smílecь	Based on Mitso (or Mičo) Asen (1256-1257), predecessor of Constantine, and Smilets (ruling 1292-1298). Paisius identifies the two explicitly (Zogr. 43:33v).
474:	*ke* cr̃ь borílь	Boril, successor of Kaloyan (1207-1218). In Paisius' text (Zogr. 43:33v), Boril succeeds Ioanъ-Kalimanъ, preceding Smilets.
475:	*kź* cr̃ь kon͛stándínь	Constantine, called Asen or Tix 'the Silent' (1257-1277). Paisius (Zogr. 43:33v) calls him Konstantinъ Šišmanъ, placing his reign after Smilets in the main text. However, House of Shishman rose to power in Vidin first in early 14th century.
476:	*kz* cr̃ь lagánь	Also known as Ivaylo, leader of a peasant uprising against Constantine in 1278 (Zogr. 43:40v). The name goes back to his Greek nickname lakhanas 'cabbage'.
477:	*ki* cr̃ь iwan treti	Ivan Asen III, son of Mitso Asen, one of the contenders for the throne after the death of Constantine in 1270s. At the time he was a Byzantine vassal in Troas, trying to press his claim by allying with Ivaylo. Paisius (Zogr. 43:41r) considers him the rightful successor.
478:	*kѳ* cr̃ь petrь treti	Based on George Terter (ruling 1280-1292), who fought as an ally of Ivan Asen III against Ivaylo. Paisius (Zogr. 43:41v) mentions him as neki baronъ petrъ, who deposed John III and later defeated an invasion of Nogai Khan, only to be expelled later by his boyars, dying in exile. After Ivan Asen's flight and the latter's death, he took the throne for himself. He was likely deposed by Nogai and replaced by Smilets. Unlike in Paisius' story, he returned to Bulgaria alive during the reign of his son Svetoslav.
479:	*l* cr̃ь svetoslávь	Svetoslav, son of George Terter I (1300-1322). Paisius (Zogr. 43:41v) describes Svetoslav as a ʺskilled commanderʺ (iskusnago vъ branexъ), contending for throne with Michael II. Victorious first, after executing Patriarch Ioakim he was deposed and killed in exile. Historical Svetoslav ruled up to his death.
480:	*la* cr̃ь mixáĭlь vtori	Michael Shishman (1323-1330). According to Paisius (Zogr. 43:41v), Michael is first defeated by Svetoslav, but is elected Emperor after the latter's expulsion. Historically, he was raised to a rank of despot by Svetoslav and was elected a tsar after the death of his childless son George II. Paisius' story is probably influenced by Michael (II), son of Constantine Asen, who fought Svetoslav with Byzantine aid.
481:	*lv* cr̃ь ʾaleѯandr	Ivan Alexander (1331-1371). Paisius' account (Zogr. 43:43r) is included in Punčo's text.
482:	*lg* cr̃ь ʾiwʾanь šišmanь	Ivan Shishman (1371-1393; Zogr. 43:45r).

Zogr. 43 (58v): izvěstno estъ kako bolgari prežde rusięnskago i moskovskago naroda za *rng* lěta prieli vъsenarodno krštenie
	*rng*]	Paisius writes (Zogr. 43:57r), that Constantine-Cyrill was invited by Murtagonъ (whom he identifies with later Boris-Michael) as a painter. Sadly, Punčo did not include the story. Historically, Boris I was baptized by Byzantines in 864, as a conclusion of a peace treaty. The Councils of Constantinople in 867 and 870 recognized the Archbishopric of Pliska.
508:	ʾá za srьbie piše kako su bili podь papa rim͛skago

510:	nikáko ne ĭmatь pisano ni u latíni ni u grь´česki letopixci za srь´bie u koe vreme kr͒tíli gi rimlʾjáne	According to Constantine Porphyrogenitus, Serbs were settled in Illyria by Emperor Heraclius (610-641) and consequently baptized by a Roman mission, but the story is dubious. Prince Mutimir (850-891) was baptized in 870. The bishopric of Braničevo is first attested in 878.

519:	[† za grьčeski vladici]	The cross refers to a place on previous page. In the omitted section Paisius argues, that Bulgars did not mingle in Church matters on conquered Greek territories, like Greeks do under Turkish rule, removing education in Bulgarian. Patriarchate of Tarnovo was subordinated to Constantinople by the Ottomans already in 15th century, and Greek archbishops were installed there. Soon after Paisius wrote his Chronicle, Slavonic archbishoprics of Ohrid and Peć were abolished too (1767).

	ʾegw`,	Here ends the text as attested in Zogr. 43. The digital edition by University of Sofia continues with the text from the transcript of Kotel (NBKM 368). Punčo takes only a very small part, comparable with that on page 83r of that source.
