Where was Kievan Rus really. The fact that some well -known historical events did not take place then and not there than is commonly believed is already known to many. For example, the Battle of Kulikovo: many historians agree that the battle between the troops of the Vladimir Prince Dmitry and the Crimean Beklyarbek Mamaia did not occur at all in the territory of the current Tula region, but almost in the center of modern Moscow. Nevertheless, tourists continue to carry on the field, which was already called Kulikov retroactively. A whole Disneyland was built there, on which considerable funds were spent. But this error occurred only because some historical names have the properties to change their location on the map. And it happens that confusion occurs due to the multiplicity of similar toponyms that existed at different times and eras in various places. Take, for example, Novgorod. This is one of the most common toponyms in the world. There is nothing surprising in this. The city arose in a new place, and for some time it, of course, is considered new for contemporaries. Many ancient new cities have been preserved around the world, among which are so famous as Novgorod the Great, Nizhny Novgorod, Neuburg in Bavaria or Naples in Italy. All these cities for those who witnessed their appearance were once new.
