The Kyiv Commission for the analysis of ancient acts, starting in 1878 to print the index to its publications, determined that its full composition should include three parts: 1) the index of persons, 2) places and 3) objects. In pursuance of this plan, then, that is, in 1878, an index of personal names was published. The volume now published contains the implementation of the second part of the general plan; it is in it that the geographical names are indicated.
