The article examines a phenomenon of the so-called ‘Semion’s people’, i.e. the territory in the periphery of the Grand duchy of Lithuania and the Tartar land. The ‘Semion’s people’ are mentioned in 1480–1499 in the correspondence of the rulers of the GDL, Crimean khanate and Moscow. It shows that these are the lands which in the late 1450s were transferred by the Crimean khanate to the GDL and were passed in the direct care of Kiev duke Semion Olelkaitis (Semen Olelkovych). On the grounds of the documents contained in the Lithuanian Metrica and the historiography on the subject, particularly the studies of F. Petrunis, the author localizes ‘Semion’s people’ on the left bank of the Dnieper River between its tributaries the Vorskla River and Ovechji vody (see the map). This territory was the last vast area annexed to the GDL at its southern borders which at the turn of the fifteen and sixteenth centuries as well as in the first half of the sixteenth centuries became an object of the territorial disputes between the GDL and the Crimean khanate.
