Abstract
In his famous "Autobiography" Marko Cepenkov is writing about one visit of Dimitrija Miladinov in their home, wherethe most famous cultural and ideological figure of the Macedonian revival in front of his father Costa pronounced the words " I collect them (the stories) to remain for time immemorial, when there will be no more such things. " This sentence remained permanently engraved in the mind of the young Cepenkov and these words made a huge impact on his future collecting and writing activities. After this point, his life was devoted to tirelessly collecting and writing down the folklore wisdom of all kinds. In the Macedonian folklore, Cepenkov has the status of an atypical collector of folk wisdom, who undoubtedly not only left us a lasting legacy of numerous folk materials, but also their quality exceeded the records of our other collectors. Today his collecting oeuvre could be seen in ten volumes of Macedonian folklore
