Again on the Location of the Medieval City of Vichina

Summary/Abstract: A fresh attempt is made to locate the medieval city of Vichina. Studying the numerous sources, a large part of the literature written on the question of the place of this city and based on the latest archeological finds, G. Atanasov sets forth his thesis that the big medieval fortified port and economic centre of Vichina was situated in the immediate proximity of Nufaru. Information about the city is encountered from the 10th to the 14th c. The depopulation and desertion of this major Lower Danubian centre took place probably in the late 14th and early 15th c. because from the beginning of the 15th c. the city of Vichina disappeared completely from the written sources.
