Cattle plague in Vladimir-Suzdalian Rusia

Text originalOriginal text

Toгo же лѣтa[1] [6806] бысть моръ на cкoтъ.

Text translationEnglish translation of the text

This summer [6806] [2] there was a cattle plague.

  1. The word "лѣтo", as the context shows, should be understood in this case as the name of the season: "summer"
  2. The fact that the full date (day of the month and day of the week) is given in the source under 6807 allows us to determine that the cattle plague took place in 1297 and not in 1298.
