[2] In the year of 1426 the Albanian Lord Gjon Kastrioti either donated the villages of Radostusha and Trebisht, or the rights to the tax revenues from these villages, as well as possibly donating the Church of Saint Mary, located in one of them, or its associated income to Hilandar Monastery.

[3][4][5] Between 1426 and 1431, Gjon Kastrioti and his sons, Reposh, Kostandin, and Gjergj with the exception of Stanisha, acquired four adelphates for 60 fiorints.

They were granted the right to reside on monastic land and receive subsidies from monastic resources, including ownership of the Albanian Tower and additional properties within the monastery.

[8][9][10] It is possible that Gjon Kastrioti played a role in the construction of the Tower.

[11] An inscription at Hilandar, referencing Reposh's death in 1431, suggests that he, and possibly his father Gjon, utilised their adelphates to retire to the tower, where Reposh ultimately spent his final days as a monk.
