Atanasije Petrović Taško (Kruševo, 11 May 1866 — Kumanovo, 15 January 1905) was a Serbian priest and vicar of the Metropolitanate of Skopje in Kumanovo at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. Taško's death triggered the Struggle for Macedonia.
Biography
[edit]Atanasije Petrović Taško came from a family of Tsintsar from Kruševo. There, he graduated from a trade school and became a tailor, before moving to Kumanovo. In Kumanovo, he married the daughter of a local merchant and became a priest around 1895.[1]
The Exarchists movement in Kumanovo, made life difficult for Serbs, primarily in the Kozjačija area. Atanasije Petrović had a rather pronounced Serbian national consciousness that disregarded VMRO's threats on his life -- if he did not declare himself a Bulgarian. The Serbs in Kumanovo and the surrounding area, were impressed by Taško's courage. When the Chetnik organization was founded, Priest (Proto) Taško became the leader of the Kumanovo committee of the Serbian Chetnik Organization. On 15 January 1905, members of the VMRO made good on their threat by killing him[2][3][4]. That incident ignited the conflict between Serbs and Bulgarians in Ottoman Macedonia and further provoked other ethnicities (Turks, Albanians, and Greeks) to get involved in the fray that lasted until the Great War.
To avenge the murder of Priest Taško, members of the Serbian revolutionary organization from Kumanovo killed the exarchate priest Aleksandar,[5] on the fortieth day after the death of Father Taško, at the time when a memorial service was held for Taško.[6]
