Here (http://www.elvish.org/gwaith/graphics/germania_low.jpg) I have
published a map made by me (using the maps: "Germanic place-names"
from Z. Babik's "The Oldest Place-name Stratum in Today's Poland"
(Cracow 2001) and "Archeological cultures in today's Poland in the
Late Roman period - 3-4 C." from Kaczanowski, Kozlowski's "The
Oldest History of the Land of Today's Poland") which shows the
Germanic place-names in the teritory which in the antiquity was
populated by the Goths and Gepids (Wielbark Culture).

I would like to hear your opinion about this map. I have tried to
reconstruct the Germanic forms of the names (according to Babik's
book and to the newest Polish research). Babik ennumerates 23 Pre-
Slavic Germanic place-names in Poland. I will add the Silesian names
soon.
