Summary/Abstract: The article critically considers the renewed version of F. Curta’s “Making of Slavs” hypothesis. The author tried to demonstrate that the theoretical grounds of the discussed hypothesis and its argumentation cause serious objections. F. Curta’s hypothesis still does not appear more convincing, even in its new version. However, his text is read with interest and also awakens the thought and imagination of the readers.
