Bolokhov

The "Bolokhovian Land", according to Alexandru V. Boldur
In sharp contrast to Boldur's view, Martin Dimnik identifies the Bolokhovian Land as a small region to the north of the uppermost course of the river Bug

Bolokhov[a] was a city mentioned in the Kievan and Galician–Volhynian chronicles, which gave the name to the Bolokhovian Land, but that has not yet been found or identified.[1] The currently known chronicle texts, like other historical sources, do not allow to determine the location of the city of Bolokhov with acceptable, sufficient archaeological accuracy.[2] M. Dimnik claims that this land may have been located in the southwest corner of the Principality of Kiev and that it also shared borders with Volhynia and Galicia.[3]
