Atanas Gradoborliyata was born in the Bulgarian village of Gradobor (now Pentalofos, Kallithea municipality, Thessaloniki regional unit), in the Solun region, then part of the Ottoman Empire. Together with Ivancho Karasuliyata, Iliya Karchovaliyata, Apostol Petkov and others, he was among the old workers of the revolutionary organization on which Gotse Delchev relied in the first years of IMARO's consolidation. As a leader of a revolutionary band, Atanas Gradoborliyata and all his freedom fighters died in 1903 near the village of Gradobor, poisoned by (sic) Grecomans.[1]
