About Vicebsk

Vitebsk, or Viciebs, is a city in Belarus. The capital of the Viciebsk Region, it had 342,381 population in 2004, making it the us of a's fourth-biggest city. It is served by using Viciebsk Vostochny Airport and Viciebsk Air Base. Viciebsk advanced from a river harbor where the Vicba River flows into the bigger Western Dvina, that's spanned in the city with the aid of the Kirov Bridge. Archaeological research indicates that Baltic tribes had settlements on the mouth of Vitba. In the ninth century, Slavic settlements of the tribal union of the Krivichs replaced them. According to the Chronicle of Michael Brigandine, Princess Olga of Kiev based Viciebsk in 974. Other versions provide 947 or 914.

Academician Boris Rybakov and historian Leonid Alekseyev have come to the realization, primarily based on the chronicles, that Princess Olga of Kiev may want to have mounted Viciebsk in 947. Leonid Alekseyev counseled that the chroniclers, whilst shifting the date from the account of the Byzantine technology to a brand new era, received the 12 months 947, later mistakenly written in copying manuscripts as 974.
