Васил Илиев Гологанов (Vasil Iliev Gologanov)
Theodosius of Skopje (Bulgarian: Теодосий Скопски, Macedonian: Теодосиј Гологанов; 1846–1926) was a Bulgarian religious figure from Macedonia who was also a scholar and translator of the Bulgarian language.[1][2] He was initially involved in the struggle for an autonomous Bulgarian Church and later in his life, he became a member of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Although he was named Metropolitan Bishop of the Bulgarian Exarchate in Skopje, he is known for his failed attempt to establish a separate Macedonian Church as a restoration of the Archbishopric of Ohrid. Theodosius of Skopje is considered a Bulgarian in Bulgaria and an ethnic Macedonian in North Macedonia.[3][4]

^Although he was named Bulgarian metropolitan bishop in Skopje, in 1890–1892 Gologanov tried to establish a separate Macedonian Church, an activity that resulted in his dismissal and temporary marginalization. Thus after this short period as an early Macedonian national ideologist, Gologanov again became a Bulgarian bishop, as well as a writer and a member of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. As we have seen, he contributed significantly to the construction of the image of Macedonia as “cradle of the Bulgarian Revival” through his “data” about Paisiy Hilendarski's birthplace For more see: A Vezenkov, The Concept of National Revival in Balkan Historiographies, p. 450; In: Entangled Histories of the Balkans - Volume Three.

^Theodossius of Skopje (1846–1926). Bulgarian Exarchist metropolitan of Skopje, born as Vasil Gologanov in the village of Turlis near Serres. Theodossius (Teodosij) is credited by the Macedonian historiography for his attempt to restore the autocephaly of the Ohrid Archbishopric under the aegis of the Catholic Church in 1891. Bulgarian historians have explained this initiative with Theodossius’s personal animosity toward the Istanbul-based Exarch Joseph. Removed from the Skopje See in 1892, he was exiled to a monastery near Sofia. From 1901 to 1906, Theodossius was the metropolitan of Plovdiv, and from 1913 to 1919 was the Bulgarian bishop of Maroneia in present-day Greek Thrace. Theodossius was also a member of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.
