Summary/Abstract: Between 1994 and 2008, a team composed of students from the Epigraphy Section of the Student Historical Society at the Jagiellonian University, doctoral candidates, and young scholars, led by Wojciech Drelicharz from the Department of Auxiliary Sciences of History at the Institute of History of the Jagiellonian University, conducted an inventory of surviving epigraphic and heraldic monuments in the eastern territories of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, now part of the western Ukraine. Thanks to this work, an important part of Poland’s historical heritage was preserved for future generations.
