"Goce Janevski Curch property is "ekklisiastiki periousia", or "monastiriaki periousia", or "metochi".

Goce Janevski 

It is attested in the work of Herodotus, 5th BC century. When describing how his native city of Hallicarnassus on the southwestern coast of Anatolia was forbidden by five other neihghbouring cities to share the use of a temple of Apollo, he uses the word "μετοχή/metohe" for "share". 


"For this offense the five cities—Lindus, Ialysus, Camirus, Cos, and Cnidus—forbade the sixth city—Halicarnassus—to share in the use of the temple. Such was the penalty imposed on the Halicarnassians."

( διὰ ταύτην τὴν αἰτίην αἱ πέντε πόλιες, Λίνδος καὶ Ἰήλυσός τε καὶ Κάμειρος καὶ Κῶς τε καὶ Κνίδος ἐξεκλήισαν τῆς μετοχῆς τὴν ἕκτην πόλιν Ἁλικαρνησσόν. τούτοισι μέν νυν οὗτοι ταύτην τὴν ζημίην ἐπέθηκαν)..."
