The place name book for the Siegen-Wittgenstein district examines around 300 settlement names that have been documented in writing from the beginnings of record-keeping in the ninth century up to around 1600. Among these are names of more than 120 settlements that have either been abandoned (temporarily or permanently) or later built over. Many settlement names in the area are based on old water and field names, thus dating back to pre-Christian times. The linguistic-historical investigation reveals a landscape of Westphalian settlement names, which serves as an important historical source, providing numerous insights for geographical, archaeological, regional and local historical, cultural, economic, and legal historical research. With this volume, the Westphalian place name book is completed in 20 volumes.
