Absztrakt

In the first third of the fourteenth century a new type of document appeared in Muscovite Rus': the testamentary will. Examining the documents, we can follow the development of ownership relations, the operation of the grand princely court, and the division of movable and immovable property, tax revenues, personal property, jewellery, and valuable clothing items. The testamentary wills provide information conceming the history of 'Kalitovič' family, giving us insights into the events preceding the birth of the Russian state and the development of its institutions.
