Summary/Abstract: The article adds three more chants to all that is known so far in science about the scope of the hymnographic activity in the first Bulgarian capital of Pliska. Copies of these chants are found in the recently discovered by Iskra Hristova-Shomova festal menaion-triodion miscellany from late XI – early XII century, which occupies part of the lower (palimpsest) layer of manuscript № 880 from “St. Cyril and St. Methodius” National Library in Sofia and was named by its discoverer Dragota’s Menaion. The three works, composed probably in or around Pliska, are the two services to St. Blaise and for Annunciation, as well as the Ascension canon, which most likely is original (not translated). The argumentation of this thesis comprises liturgical, philological, textological, archaeological and anthropological data. The text of the office to St. Blaise is related in the article to the epigraphically documented construction of a temple in honour of the saint in 6 km north of Pliska most likely at the end of the IX century.
