Μολονότι οἱ πληροφορίες ποὺ ὑπάρχουν γι' αὐτὴν εἶναι λιγοστές, ἐντούτοις, διαθέτουμε γιὰ τὴν ἱστορία της ἕνα σημαντικὸ τεκμήριο, ποὺ γιὰ ἐλάχιστες ἄλλες κρητικὲς μονὲς ἔχει διασωθεῖ, δηλαδὴ μιὰ μορφὴ τοῦ Τυπικοῦ της.

We connect them with Crete because the name of the island is mentioned in their inscriptions. Three of the seals belonged to lay officials, and two to ...

Μολονότι υπάρχουν μελέτες που ασχολούνται με συγκεκριμένες πλευρές του θέματος αυτού, ωστόσο εδώ προσπαθούμε να δούμε την εικόνα στη γενικότητά της, χρησιμοποιώντας εκδεδομένες και ανέκδοτες πηγές.
This study is an attempt to codify and categorize the various types of mobility of priests and monks within and outside Crete during the Venetian period. Although there are studies dealing with various aspects of this subject, here we try to look at the greater picture, using published and unpublished sources.

Orhodox Convents in Chandax and the Greater Chandax Area during Venetian Rule
Little is known about the convents in Crete, both Orthodox and Roman Catholic, at the time of the Venetian rule. This paper attempts to examine the Greek Orthodox convents in the city of Chandax (present-day Herakleion) and its wider area during that period. It draws mostly from unpublished archival sources, notarial and others, but also from published sources.
In examining the subject several difficulties needed to be resolved. One was to decide which religious institutions were actually monasteries and not churches, since in the documents of that period the word monastery is often used interchangeably with church. The exact location of a monastery, distinguishing it from another of the same name or dedication to a saint, which may or may not have changed, and similar problems needed to be dealt with on most occasions. Thus, these and other topics are examined first in general and subsequently each case individually.
There were twenty convents in and around the capital of Crete. A couple of them date back to Byzantine times and very few were established in the last decades of the Venetian rule. In the discussion of each particular monastery we attempt to establish what is known about their organisation and administration, whether a convent was autonomous or a dependency of another, and the involvement of the Duke of Crete and other officials in the affairs of the monasteries.
In some cases we are able to establish the number and the names of the nuns residing in a convent at a particular date and follow the changes over subsequent years. We are also able to have some insight into aspects of the financial affairs of the convents and to a lesser extent their property and how this was handled. There is also information about personal affairs of the nuns.
At the end of the paper there is an Appendix where we publish a selection of 17 hitherto unpublished documents representing several of the issues previously discussed.
