Index of Texts
If the author of the text is known, the text is named as a sub-rubric after its authorâs name. Versions or particular manuscripts of a certain text are listed also as sub-rubrics. Classes of texts or inscribed objects (such as birchbark documents, chronographs, seals, etc.) are sometimes included into this index, but not letopisi, annals, and chronicles, as those three terms are used too often throughout the book.
