AB  - The study seeks to present a detailed documentation of the visible relics of two deserted medieval villages in the Nymburk district (Central Bohemia). A forest engulfed their internal and external built-up areas. The entire layouts of the built-up areas were successfully reconstructed in the two localities. The propitious preservation of the division lines of the ploughed areas at one of the villages resulted in an overall reconstruction and typological classification. The second aim of the study is the analysis of written sources that not only could date the desolation of the two villages in the 15th century, but also partly learn about their social context during their declining years. The imparted knowledge was set according to the regional settlement and historical context.
