ABSTRACT.<\/strong> The present study is devoted to the examination of the Gorki sloboda in the context of the historical topography of the city of Tver\u2019 in the late Middle Ages and Modern times. The purpose of the work is to identify the location of this settlement, as well as the characteristic features of its material culture. An integrated approach is applied to the use of available sources: the materials of archaeological excavations of 2015, data from cadasters\u2019 descriptions of the 17th \u2014 early 18th centuries, cartographic sources of the 18th\u201319th centuries are involved in the analysis. As a result of the fulfilled research, it became possible, on the basis of archaeological data, to identify several stages of development, planning, and building of the Gorki sloboda, beginning from the 14th century and up to the early 18th century. The development of this section of the territory on the left bank of the T\u2019maka River had begun in the 14th century. During the 15th century, it was, apparently, a residential and economic zone of a small (of little courtyards) settlement near the southwestern outskirts of Tver\u2019. Residential and household buildings, the boundaries of the farmstead, and objects of material culture of this time have been identified. The period of greatest activity on this area, judging from the number of complexes, finds and fragments of pottery, falls on the 16th century. Underground constructions of residential and non-residential buildings, as well as stockades, are attributed to the settlement of this time. The material traces of the 17th\u201318th centuries are presented only slightly in the excavation, evidencing that the settlement of this time was probably decreasing in size and removing closer to the city precincts. The analysis of written sources in combination with cartographic data allowed to bring them in correlation with the obtained archaeological materials, as well as to clarify the location of the settlement on the outskirts of medieval Tver\u2019.<\/p>\n
