Mišljen (veliki tepčija)

Mišljen (Serbian Cyrillic: Мишљен; fl. ca. 1330[1]) was a Serbian nobleman that served king Stefan Dečanski (r. 1321–31), with the title of veliki tepčija.[2] The title-holder took care of the royal estates.[3] He was wealthy.[4] In 1330 he had a monastery dedicated to the Holy Apostles built somewhere in eastern Hum.[5] He restored the church, donated books, vestments and gold, and built himself an adorned tomb.[6] This church is located in the village of Crkvina, 6 km from Goražde (in Bosnia and Herzegovina).[7] The menologion written on demand of veliki tepčija Obrad (fl. 1230s) is recorded to have later came into the possession of Radoslava, "the wife of the tepčija", presumably of Mišljen.[8]
