Evidence
"The oldest manuscript is known as 'The Samokov Medicine Guidebook' and is copied from another manuscript, which has been lost. The copy is personally dated in 1800 A.D. by a famous copyist and carries the signature of Anaki Tumparov. (p. 6)"
Remarks
The paper identifies several significant 18th and 19th-century Bulgarian manuscripts: 'The Samokov Medicine Guidebook' (1800), a guidebook by the priest Grigori (1800), a manuscript from Svishtov (1804), the 'Medical Guidebook from Rila monastery', and a 1848 guidebook by Lazar Kefalov from Teteven (p. 6). These manuscripts are described as 'written records containing considerable knowledge in the sphere of medical treatment' and were often compiled in monastic or urban trade centers (p. 6).
