In this paper, the monastery of Prisklabetza (Πρισκλάβητζα) in Prilep, mentioned as the endowment of Michael Glabas Tarchaneiotes in the shortened version of the History by George Pachymeres, is identified with the monastery of Treskavac near Prilep. This conclusion is supported by the similarity between the names of the two monasteries, the composition with a ktetor in the porch of the main entrance to Treskavac, and the nature of construction works carried out in the monastery between 1280 and 1320.
