 Prague in Black and Gold - by Peter Demetz
In the ninth century at least a dozen Slavic tribes were settled in diverse regions of Bohemia, in some contrast to more centralized Moravia, and new groups of feudal chieftains and their retinues emerged to make decisions about war and peace and their peoples.
Each tribe began to build fortified burgs and communities, and a contemporary Bavarian geographer indicated that the "Beheimare" (whoever that was) had fifteen civitates and those of the more powerful "Fraganeo" region forty (he may have overstated the numbers).
Cyril construed a script, the Hlaholice (or Glagolica), to write down Slavic translations of religious and legal texts, and the Bavarian clerics promptly accused the brothers of the heresy of introducing a fourth language (after Hebrew, Greek, and Latin) to Christian liturgy.

 Marija Gimbutas — The Balts — Chapter 1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
A general name for the Prussians, that is, the western Balts, comes to light in the ninth century A.D.; this is Bruzi, first recorded by a Bavarian geographer some time after 845.
It is believed that before the ninth century “Prussian” was probably the name of one of the western Prussian tribes and was only gradually transferred to other tribes, like the tribal name “Allemagne” for Germany.
Būga was convinced of the earlier Baltic character of present day Byelo-Russia, and he even developed the theory that the original lands of the Lithuanians must have been north of the River Pripet and in the upper Dnieper basin.

The rapid ethnic, political and social evolution of this term and the people(s) which it denoted during the 3rd-4th/9th-10th centuries produced a series of temporally multi-layered, occasionally contradictory notices in the classical Islamic geographical literature.
It is not clear if this usage has any relationship to the ¨jv ÅRvs¤a noted by Constantine Porphyrogenitus, the geographical contours of which are equally uncertain.
These and other themes are drawn from information that was part of the body of Islamic geographical literature of the 3rd-4th/9th-10th centuries (see below).

For example, it is not clear why the Polanians, the tribe which was to give rise to the Polish state under the Piast dynasty, do not appear in the list of a ninth-century source known as the Bavarian Geographer.
The list does, however, mention the tribe of the Glopeans with no less than 400 civitates, but the name of this tribe does not appear in any other source.
Do the civitates of the Bavarian Geographer represent strongholds, or was this a general term for settlement clusters?
