During the period 2004-2010 a research excavation into preeminentparts of the castle was organized by the University of Athens and headedby Assistant Professor Eleni Deliyianni-Doris (fig. 2).

St Demetrius, the patron of Thessaloniki through the ages, became the subject of an ideological dispute between the second Bulgarian State and the Byzantine empire (end of 12th c. and throughout the 13th century).The Bulgarians and Vlachs of Haemus attempted to appropriate St Demetrius as the divine protector of their revolt (1185/1186).Τhe Byzantines challenged this founding ideology of the new Bulgarian regime by materialising tsar Ioannitzes' sudden death in front of Thessaloniki's walls (1207) and interpreting the Bulgarian king's end as one of Demetrius’ numerous miracles. According to the author, the Byzantine counter-narrative was not only based on the visualization of St Demetrius' miraculous intervention in 1207 and the new iconographical type of the martyr on horseback, spearing or unhorsing Ioannitzes, but also on Radomeros' miraculous murder presumably carried out by the same saint. This later miracle constitutes a conceived historical parallel to Ioannitzes' death.

The present article examines the secular offices, titles and honorific epithets mentioned in testaments. The term testament is used here not only in its strictly legal sense, the disposal of property, but also in the wider one, that of confession, advice, political direction and monastic foundation. The purpose and the demands of the testator dictate the frequency and the kind of offices and titles. Τhey correspond to the government, army and judicial power. Both the highest offices and titles are attested as well as the lowest ones, and they crop up in testaments after the middle of 14th century, when court lists are absent. The reference to the office of basileus is made when the emperor, apart from holding his usual role, is called upon as guardian (trustee) of the testament, restorer or donor of monasteries and receiver of charities. The title despot is the one most commonly mentioned, whereas, the wide use of the honorific epithets doulos, oikeios, pansebastos sebastos is confirmed. Both the social status and the family networking of the testators are obvious

In his poem “Job” Leo the Philosopher mentions as models for imitation not only Job but also philosophers, poets and other historic personalities. The abundance of Hellenistic allusions in the poem makes a strong feeling that this piece of work was created for people whose mind is more used to Hellenistic rather than Christian cultural symbols. Speaking of virtues, Leo clearly prefers to take examples from the life of ancient philosophers. Plato and the Stoics are for him the teachers of virtue, and he places Socrates among the “people of a high divine life” along with Christian saints. Although the poem makes plenty of appeals to bear grief and poverty, in the end the author asks God not to send too much suffering to anyone but give a chance to lead an undisturbed life, enjoying “some of riches and properties.” In general, Leo in his poem appears more like a humanist and Hellenist, than as a Christian traditionalist.
