НЕЗАБЕЛЯЗАНИ АКРОСТИХОВЕ ОТ ЕПОХАТА НА СВЕТИ НАУМ ОХРИДСКИ
UNNOTICED ACROSTICHS FROM THE EPOCH OF ST. NAHUM OF OHRID

Summary/Abstract: This article presents the hypothesis that in the 13th century Prayer book, published by P. Simic in 1976, can be deciphered two well known signatures - of Sabas and Clement. Peculiar of the signature of St. Clement is the use of two manners (expressed by initials and simple acrostich). So the first part of the name is written by the initials of the troparia and the second - by the beginnings of verses in the last troparion. Using two different techniques in signing is a feature in the creative manner of St. Clement of Okhrid. In the canon, signed with the name of Clement, can be read part of an acrophrase. The signature of Sabas is located in the eighth and ninth ode with one disorder, but probably one should read Savino, i.e. belonging to Sabas. In the Virgin Mary troparia system can also be read an acrosignature using a specific code. This location of the name enables one to assume that it discloses another student of St. Cyril and Methodius – Levi or Leo, who worked together with Clement and Sabas.
