ABSTRACT. The article accumulates information about 16 volosts of the Putyvl district (powiat/uezd) and analyzes research ideas about their location, borders and territorial composition. In particular, it is shown that the Zhuravnе archaeological complex on the Vorskla River cannot be associated with the center of Lositskaya volost: it corresponds to Nemer’, the center of the neighboring Nemirskaya volost. The identification of the center of Gorodetskaya volost with the Vorozhba on the Psyol River is not confirmed by sources. At the present time, there is not enough data to confidently localize the centers of Teshkovskaya and Klepetskaya volosts. The same applies to Lopatin, a volost known only from documents of the Lithuanian era. It is assumed that the Korenskaya volost was located in the area of present Hlynsk on the Sula River. The popular version that the latter belonged to the possessions of the Glinsky princes is called into question.

KEYWORDS: the late MiddleAges, the modern period, Severia, Lositsy, Nemer’, Gorodische, Uteshkov, Klyapech, Glinsk, localization methods
