Documente din secolele XVII-XVIII privitoare la istoria mănăstirii Golia şi a satului Cajba (ţinutul Iaşi)
SEVENTEENTH−EIGHTEENTH CENTURY DOCUMENTS REGARDING THE HISTORY OF GOLIA MONASTERY AND OF THE VILLAGE OF CAJBA (COUNTY OF IAŞI)

Summary/Abstract: Among the documents strayed within the archive of the Golia Monastery – which failed to be included in the cargo transported to the Vatoped Monastery on Mount Athos –, several dozens ended up, because of a mix-up, in the Museum of Agnita. Afterwards, they were taken over by the Sibiu County Directorate of the National Archives. The documents were divided, quite randomly, into two files; we publish now 16, dating from the interval 1606−1751. The oldest ones – also the most important and beautiful – concern the following: the village of Cajba (Cajva), within the old region of Iaşilor, on the left bank of Prut, whose history was thus “found again”; the Golia Monastery, within the city of Iaşi, regarding whose history we discovered interesting information; the families of Cantacuzino and Racoviţă, whose genealogies were thus usefully completed.
