 The Lemko Rusyns: Their Past and Present
The most important event during these early centuries was the coming of Christianity in its eastern or Byzantine form, which reached the Carpathians via the west (the Cyril and Methodian mission in the late ninth century) and the east (Kievan Rus' after 988).
By the end of the nineteenth century, the pastoral lands in the Lemko Region had been taken over by farmers, although their plots were continually subdivided and unable to support a growing population.
Therefore, with the exception of the far eastern districts [Sanok and Lisko) where a Ukrainian orientation predominated, the majority of villagers in the Lemko Region continued to identify as Lemkos or Rusyns and to have reinforced a sense of national affinity with their Rusyn brethren south of the mountains in Czechoslovakia.
