The cross-shaped sabers, according to Okolsky, are the military style of the MuDiev, who had two buns as their coat of arms. This surname, according to the testimony of the coat of arms* of the south, acquired the name Mogil due to its military courage: “Ъо з'едиег зісь (from the surname) mgeiki tkuoigshk bggedi Blpa^i $§8Ieti todiiati Igirbmg ікрп^асиіоІ8кісь оезруі* *)... I tell a much more plausible story about the ancestor of Mogil, attributing the rise of this family to the youth of the 15th century, precisely to the time of the Moldavian governor Ste-IV, who, allegedly for the service rendered to him by one of his heralds Puriyum, endowed him with estates, elevated him to boyar dignity - made him a great armash and, at the same time, gave a new role nickname for Megillah, i.e. hill *).

The legend says the following: during the battle between the Moldovans and the Vderni on the 16th March 1488), a horse was killed near Stephen, who was personally in charge of the war. Herald IIurng, who was near the governor during the battle, was the first to offer Stefan his horse and, to make it easier to mount it (Stephen was not tall), stood on his knee, saying: “let me, sir, serve me instead of * orcs *.” Ste- ♦sh, standing with one foot on Iuriga’s knee and jumping on his horse, answered his herald: “I will make you a hill out of a bramble.” During the bvt-I Purng did not lag behind his master a single step. ®*y managed to get involved with the leader of the Hungarian army Braiut himself, kill him and bore Stefan’s head.

As for strictly historical evidence about the surname Mogil*, it does not go back further than the half of the 16th century and, moreover, is not particularly complete. From the monuments of that time we learn that the grandfather of Peter the Mogila, John (in monasticism Ioannikis) was the logoet of the land of Moldova *), was distinguished by military courage and was married to the daughter of the ruler Mary, with whom he had three sons: Jeremiah, Gabriel and Simeon. The first of them was for quite a long time the ruler of Moldova 2), the second the Moldavian metropolitan 8), and the third, Simeon, was first a commander and for about a year the governor of Volosh, and then for some time the ruler of Moldova 4). Our famous Metropolitan Peter Mogila was one of the five sons of the latter 6).

') Very Reverend Eugene (Description of the Kyiv-Soph. Cathedral, nzd. 1825, p. 166), and after him others (Kyiv, Askochensky vol. I, p. 108) call Peter Mogila’s grandfather the Volosh prince or governor. This is not true.
