Still more famous was Vukashin, guardian and cup-bearer of the young Tsar, who drove his master from the throne in I366, and assumed the title of king, with the government of the specially Serbian lands and Prizren as his capital.

 kosovo.net: The Saga of Kosovo, by Alex N. Dragnich and Slavko Todorovich
From the time that the Serbian notables and church dignitaries met in the city of Skopia (Skoplje), after the fatal battle in which King Vukashin and his army perished (Maritsa, 1371), and chose Lazar Hrebeljanovich as their leader, he enjoyed great popularity and respect.
Contemporary chroniclers, and later a whole lot of biographers and "history writers," as a rule had to keep in mind the interests of their protectors and sponsors, with objectivity not always their trademark.
The casual author, for instance, thought nothing of reviving King Vukashin (eighteen years after his death) and to bring him to Kosovo as a participant, with "his thirty thousand troops." Groping through all this poetic license was unavoidable.
