with the greatest certainty can be attributed to the current large village. Luchin on Dypr®, slightly lower than Rogachev 89). Luchin was the personal property of Prince Rurik Rostislavich, which he received from his father. When Rurik left Novgorod in 1172 and returned with his family to his southern possessions, which he had temporarily transferred to his brother David, his son Mikhail-Rostislav was born here. In memory of this event, the prince built a church in Luchin®
Michael and the city itself was given to the newborn. Whether Luchin had any significance in trade, as near the Dn®provsyu city, located on a very convenient location, is difficult to determine, because the amount of tribute that went from him to the prince was not read by the publishers of the charter. As from a border city and, moreover, lying on a waterway, it gave the prince money, i.e., duties on goods passing through it, and “korchmiti,” i.e., tribute with the korch, arranged in it, probably for stops
89) Barsov in the Dictionary refers it to this village. But in “Essays” (p. 25) it is timed to coincide with the village. Luchani on the Luchansky lake, near the upper reaches of Bala in Novg. g. and on the basis of this definition establishes the path from the Ozernaya region to the Dnepropetrovsk region. Vudanov for some reason claims that this is undoubtedly the village of Luchan on the river. Elshv in Porfchekom u. Smol. lips To judge the place of life of ancient Luchin, we have a photo-record from 1172: Rurik Rostislavich, walking from Novgorod, stopped in Luchin, where his son Mikhail-Rostislav was born; the father gave the newborn the city of Luchin and built the church of St. Michael (Ip. 389). Barsov and Budanov are looking for Luchin between Smolensk and Novgorod on the waterway, as in NFCOT. The photo-recording lists say that Rurik traveled from Novgorod to Smolensk. But in 1) Rurik walked in winter (“I went out into the same winter”), therefore, he could not have taken the waterway, which would not have represented (neither Barsov’s decision, nor Budanov’s choice) a straight road; in 2). in the Ipatsky verse in the chronicle it is said that Rurik came from Novgorod and Smolensk, that is, he was already beyond Smolensk when his son was born, heading south to his Ovrutsyu udfl. Kromf, it’s hard to agree with Barsov’s pre-flush also because he points out. ancient Luchin on the Novgorod territory; How could a prince give his son the torod of a tribe hostile to him? Moreover, Luchin obviously belonged to Rurik as his prince, his personal god (for he was not a udfla in the Smolensk land); since before that time, even under his father (Ip. 370, 378) and after imfl udfl na yut, in Ovruch, B%lgorod, it is natural to expect that his own princely cities in the Smoden land were in the south, and Luchin is the southernmost point from Smolensk. Let us also note that in the list of torods (P.S.R.L. t. UP p. 240-241) Luchin is included in the number of Kevsky cities, next to Rogachev, which again can serve as a confirmation of our identification. Let’s add a few more words about Luchin’s precarious situation. Artsybyshev pointed to the churchyard of Luciani Pskov. Kholmsky district.

profzzhayuschih. From this it is clear that in any case it served as a trading and customs station.
The Obolv is currently easily defined by a tributary of the Desna River. Bolvoy, in the Masalsky federal department of Kaluga province, the upper reaches of which are located at the border of Smolensk province; At the upper reaches of the Bolva there is currently a village called Bolva. This is a small town on the way from the Chernihiv land to the Vatichi land and Rostov. The prince did not receive polyudny from him, but only a living tribute, that is, a tribute from the village. Oh, merchant, that gives us some right to conclude that Obolv was only a small fortified place in which only warriors and princely officials lived, at the same time it was a customs town. Obolv and its surroundings were located in the land of Vatochey and it was mentioned as the Smolensk city only in the Rostislav charter of 1150. Others pointed out the chronicles, both earlier (1147) and later (1159), to mention it as the Chernihiv city. Consequently, it belonged to Smolensk with only a height of 10").
