Cyril Hopovac also written Ćiro Hopovac an abbreviated form of Ćirilo Hopovac[1](Serbian: Ћирило Хоповац/Ćirilo Hopovac; who lived between the 17th- and the beginning of the 18th-century) was a Serbian chronicler from the time of the Great Migration of the Serbs and a contemporary of Stefan Ravaničanin, Atanasije Daskal and Arsenije III Crnojević.[2] He was an archimandrite of the Staro Hopovo Monastery. From his pen come various notes written around 1721, the most striking of which is the fleeing and alienation of the peoples and patriarch Arsenije III Crnojević before the Turks and the death of many of his contemporaries after 1683. He is one of three eyewitness writers who testify to these tragic events. The other two are Stefan Ravaničanin and Atanasije Daskal.[2]Cyril's letter to Fyodor Alexeyevich Golovin|Golovin during the Treaty of Karlowitz is a testimony of the tragedy of Serbia invaded by an Ottoman Empire|empire alien in Christian faith and European customs.[3]
Like the monks of Rača monastery, for example, it not uncommon for anonymous writers to be referred to by their first name and the name of the place with which their life or work is connected (in Cyril's case, Staro Hopovo Monastery).
