Appendix: Place names and localities The place names and localities mentioned in the text are shown on one or more maps. Figure 2 contains many names and indicates the position of more detailed maps where the remaining names are shown. Names in italics are names with old spelling. They are located under their modern spelling or indicated on the historical maps (Figs 3, 4). The old forms of the names are typically mentioned under the heading ‘History’.
