- This is from Tatiana Jackson's book about Norse place-names in Russia. I may supply appropriate citation when I get home. Anyway, I plan to rewrite this article sooner or later. Cheers, Ghirla -трёп- 09:13, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

At Beloozero were Vepsäs, At Rostov ozero Merjas and also at Kleshino ozero are Merjas too. And along the Oka River, where it flows to Volga are their own language talking Muromas, and also their own language talking Tseremisses and Mordovians.
Slavonic language speakers in Rus are Poljans, Drevljans, Polotskians, Dregovitshes, Severjanes and Buzans. The Buzans have received their name from that they formely used to live along Buga River, but later they have been started to called Volhynians. The Novgorodians are added into the list only later in later versions.
Others, who pay tributes for Rus are Tshuds, Merjas, Vepsäs, Muromas, Tseremisses, Mordvas, Permas, Petshoras, Hämes, Littis, Zimigolas, Korsas, Narovas, Liivis. All these talk their own languages, they are the descendats of Jaafet, and who lives in the northern countries.
