This article discusses a newly found Ottoman document. It concerns the oldest—to date—patriarchal diploma of investiture (berat), which was issued for Patriarch Raphael i (1475–76). This and the other two known berats from that epoch constitute a successive set of such documents, and give scholars the opportunity to study the mechanisms of production of patriarchal diplomas of investiture that were so important for the Orthodox Church in the Ottoman period. Furthermore, these documents date from the formative period of the Orthodox Church under Ottoman rule, providing first-hand evidence on how the Church institution became stabilised under the Ottomans.
