aaamm.. so bad the article is not in english to read. For the
people who cannot beginn anything with russian, which should
be the reasons of doubt for the relation Aspron=Bilhorod?I
just would should like to put them in a paralel view with the
arguments of Brezeanu.
Begining with middle of XIV centuries the topic is not more of
a very big interers for be, but until then, a lot:-)
