This book presents research papers on the subject of the stronghold at Grodek upon the Bug River, on Poland´s eastern border, identified at present as the remains of the early medieval city of Volhyn´, one of the major sites on the Polish-Rus´ borderland in the 10th - 13th century. The present book discusses the results of archaeological fieldworks made at Grodek upon the Bug River in the past (1952-1955, partly also in 1983) and of the latest geophysical surveys, geography and geology analyses, and technological studies (textile analysis). Some attention is paid to human bone analyses. A separate study discusses the cartographic sources for the history of Grodek - Volhyn´, another reports on the coin finds from Grodek. Published for the first time in English next to the research papers is a report written by Pawel Jasienica (born Leon Lech Beynar), Polish historian, journalist, essayist, on the archaeological field work of 1952-1955. Individual analyses are the result of an international co-operation of researchers from Poland, Germany, Russia, Serbia and Ukraine pursued within two wide scale projects: The Golden Apple of Polish archaeology. Stronghold complexes at Czermno and Gródek (Cherven´ Towns) - chronology and function in the light of past and current research (Ministry of Science and Higher Education, Warsaw/Poland; National Programme for the Development of the Humanities; project No. 12H 12 0064 81), and The Elbe Marches, Poland and Bohemia from the 10th to the 12th century (Federal Ministry of Education and Research, Bonn/Germany; project No. FKZ 01UG1410).
