Gesta Hammaburgensis ecclesiae pontificum (1075 - 1076) Adam of Bremen |
| Quotation |
Ab illa civitate brevi remigio traiicitur hinc ad Dyminem urbem, quae sita est in hostio Peanis fluvii, ubi et Runi habitant. Inde ad Semland provinciam, quam possident Pruzi. Iter eiusmodi est, ut ab Hammaburg vel ab Albia flumine VIImo die pervenias ad Iumne civitatem per terram; nam per mare navim ingrederis ab Sliaswig vel Aldinburg, ut pervenias ad Iumne. Ab ipsa urbe vela tendens XIIIcimo die ascendes ad Ostrogard Ruzziae. Cuius metropolis civitas est Chive, aemula sceptri Constantinopolitani, clarissimum decus Greciae. |
| Translation |
From that city it is a short passage in one direction to the city of Demmin, which is situated at the mouth of the Peene River, where the Rugiani also live. The other one reaches the province of Semland, which the Prussians occupy. The journey is such that it takes seven days to go from Hamburg to the Elbe River to the city of Jumne by land; for by hte sea route one boards ship at Schleswig or Oldenburg to get to Jumne. From the latter city it is fourteen days' sail up to Ostrogard of Russia. The largest city of Russia is Kiev, rival of the scepter of Constantinople, the brightest ornament of Greece. (Trans. Tschan, p. 67) |
