	Prince Marko - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When Krali Marko was born, three narecnitsi (fate-fairies) appeared and fortold him he will become a hero and will replace his father - the king.
		His mother Jevrosima is unknown to history, although Marko Kraljević has been recorded (along with his brother Andrija) in the historical chronicles of King Vukašin.
		Songs attribute to Marko superhuman strength: he can squeeze water from cornel dried for nine years; his favourite weapon is a mace of 66 oka (85 kilograms); he chose his horse because it was the only horse he could not throw over his shoulder.

		Marko Kraljevic (“Mark, the King's Son”) was a member of the powerful Macedonian family allied to that of Balšic, which ruled in northern Albania and along the Adriatic.
		When his father, King Vukašin, was slain in battle with the Turks in 1371, Marko succeeded him as a vassal to the sultan.

	Europe as culture. Epic and the dephts of history (4): An epic hero, Royal Marko
		In the confused events of this period (1371-1395) King Marko appeared assuredly as one of the most significant actors of that great history that took place in those times not only in Prilep and Serres, but in the whole Balkans and fixed their destiny for centuries.
		The epic hero Marko represented as a king in mourning for his father Vulkashin, fresco on the entrance gate of the monastery of the Archangel Michael, Prilep, Macedonia.
		Similarly, Serbian historians have long given an ambiguous image of Marko Kraljevic, either a negative hero, vassal of a Turkish sultan, or a positive hero, a christian knight, brother-in-arms of the Serbian knights sung in the pieces of the Kossovo cycle.

	King Marko
		Latter-day artistic renditions of Marko - like this nineteenth century painting by the renown Serbian poet and artist Djura Jaksic - are largely romanticized and mostly influenced by the image created by oral tradition, as they often replace the medieval king with a combination of a 17th c.
		This and the next are the only two confirmed surviving renditions of Marko from his lifetime, considerably different from the images associated with him through later epic tradition.
		Shown just following his father's death in battle, in a white garment - a sign of mourning taken from the Byzantine court tradition - Marko holds a sceptre and the unfolded founder's charther.
