The paper departs from new work of K. Zierhoffer and Z. Zierhoffer who have discovered - on the basis of old Polish chronicles and East Slavonic dialects - that the word 'baba' used to have the meaning 'a marshy, boggy, grassy place' in toponymy. The authors claim that in Babimost et Potopisko, a note written in 1257, it was 'a swamp, a boggy place on marsh'. These and other notes allow us to state that in the old toponymy, the apelative base bab'-i, babi-a should be understood in such meaning. Thus the explanation of the meaning of the name of one of the oldest settlements outside Bydgoszcz castle Babiawies should be verified and it should be assumed that, according to its name, it was 'a settlement situated at a marshy, boggy place on the bank of the Brda river'. According to historical chronicles, the inhabitants of Babia Wies had to deliver timber to the castle, pay the rent and build a dam to prevent floods.

The article focuses on the mutual relationship between toponomastics and environmentalism. At the moment, their existing contacts are not too intensive. The works and texts that could be considered as environmentalistic using the evidence of place-names and their analysis are presented in the paper. The author shows their relations and refers to the possible risk of maximization of the evidence of place-names and minor place-names as illustrated by the example of 'wolf place-names', e.g. Vlcovice, Vlci jamy, Vlci hrdlo.

The article presents the percentage of the so-called relative names in the post-war toponymy of West Pomerania, officially established after 1945 by the Commission for Establishing Names of Localities and Physiographic Objects. The issue in question is discussed on the basis of the toponymic material of the post-war administrative district of Lobez, which was one of the twelve districts of the Szczecin province. Only less than six percent of all geographic names of the given region are formed by relative names or detoponymic names.

The article is a part of the cycle of works presenting the vocabulary on the basis of which the territorial names were created in Pomorze Zachodnie before the germanization of these territories. The works are based on the materials from the Vocabulary of Former Pomeranian Territorial Names of the Western Pomerania (Słownik dawnych pomorskich nazw terenowych z Pomorza Zachodniego). The article presents a list of concrete names of the bases of ostrów (island), osuch (a higher location at the field or a meadow, etc.), okól (a turn of the river or a meadow or a field above the river's turn), e.g. Wustrowk, Wussuschke, Wokoll and their location on the map. The base of ostrów is the archaism which lives in Kashubian dialects, osuch and okól are Kashubian innovations, which in the past - as proved by the territorial names formed on the basis thereof - also reached the eastern part of Pomorze Zachodnie (Western Pomerania).

In this article I deal with several toponyms with initial O(b)- (Oblonie, Oblas, Oblotne, Ochodza, Oblaz, Obierwia). In addition, whole groups of names related to them are also examined. I present existing and potential etymologies for the toponyms under discussion. My goal is also to obtain as wide an onymic context as possible from the whole Slavic linguistic territory, which allows drawing certain conclusions in the area of onomastic geography.

The paper intends to present a colourful image of continental Portugal, based on 62 inhabited place names found on the Portuguese territory in which exists a reference to any colour. The studied toponymes, collected in their majority from indexes of two cartographic sources, are analysed from etimological-semantic and formal point of view (corresponding, respectively, to division according to colour and classification in three groups: simple colour names, derivatives from colour names and composed names). The final considerations contain conclusions resulting from the analysis, accompanied by a provisory map illustrating some of indicated phenomena.

Toponyms formed by the suffix -j6 from compound personal names belong to archaic structural types of Slavic toponymy. At the territory of historical Bohemia these names function not only as oikonyms, but also anoikonyms. The article summarises the distribution and time classification of Czech oikonyms of this type and provides a detailed analysis of anoikonyms from the collection of minor place-names from the years 1963 - 1980. It can be concluded that toponyms of this type cover almost the whole territory of historical Bohemia. On the basis of this analysis, some hypotheses concerning the early (probably incoherent) settlement of this territory can be formulated.

The author refers to the article by W. Hensel, who developed a thesis that the name Gniezno, inscribed on the coin of Boleslav the Great as GNEZDUN CIVITAS was originally composed of two elements, made up of two words 'knez' (prince) and 'dun' (fortified settlement). Expressing his critical opinion of this thesis, the author, after the analysis of the earliest written records, suggests a hypothesis, claiming that there existed two variants of the name: Gniez(d)no and Gniezdzien, whereas the first variant was original and referred to the lake: *Gnezd6no (jezero) >*Gn'ezd'no (jez'oro), where 6 stands for a high reduced front vowel called 'jer'surviving in the historical slavic languages. This is confirmed by numerous names of lakes ending with -no in the Gniezno area. The second variant must have originally stood for the hilltop over the lake: Gniezdzien (hilltop) and in the course of time the fortified settlement built there: Gniezdzien (fortified settlement) - *Gnezd6n6 (gord6) > *Gn'ezd'en (grod). Following the rejection of the second element, the name Gnezden remained and then Gniezdzien, that is the name which functioned as the name of the capital of the Piast state until the 12th century, and later disappeared superseded by a dehydronymic permanent form, standing for the original lake and the settlement on its banks - Gniezdno, transformed into modern Gniezno.(Original paper published with the German summary)

The paper introduces the solution of tension between pagan and Christian world during the early Middle Ages shortly after the succession of Christianity. The evidence of mentioned tension lies in the existence of various toponyms and antroponyms, which are connected with Byzantine-Slavic cultural environment, too.

The study deals with toponymy of the most western part of Slovakia (Záhorie), which represent (create) the border with Czech Republic. The names of the villages and their terrain parts show that the region was situated in a marshy environment. The living conditions in this area were preferred by the Slavs rather than the Hungarians. The main orientation thoroughfares were the rivers: Danube, Morava, Myjava and their tributary streams. The archaeological researches and surveys have testified the plentiful Slav settlements from the beginning of the 6th century AD. Most of the village and terrain names inform us of the Christian and Pagan cults of our ancestors.
