1693. A geographical dictionary representing the present and ancient names by Edmund Bohun.
Rostow, Rostovia, a great City in Russia; which is the Capital of a Dukedom of the same Name, and an Archbishops See. It stands upon the River Cotorea, having a Fortress of Wood: twenty six Miles from the Wolga to the South, and thirty four from Mosco to the West. The Dukes of this Province were next Novograd in the greatest Esteem of any in this Kingdom; till John Basilovitz, in 1565. totally extirpated the Family; and since that time it has been given to the second Son of the Czars.
