of the anthropological analyses confirm this record. DNA research and analyses revealed the closest kinship ties between Holy Prince Lazar and Saint Despot Stefan, confirming once again that the founder of Resava was buried in his endowment. The relics of Saint Despot Stefan are located in Manasija Monastery, in a reliquary that stands in the nave of the church which is the mirror of his soul and greatness. Six centuries after his falling asleep and his passing into the embrace of God, Saint Despot Stefan, visionary and poet, ruler and saint, protector of the weak and servant of the living God, has revealed himself, and in Manasija Monastery he welcomes the faithful as a true host. His work and his faith continue to speak even today, calling those who listen to sense the depth of eternity and the glory of the Kingdom of God, which draws near in power.
