Summary / Abstract:

ENThe article examines the evolution of offices that functioned in the Volhynia and Kiev region in the Lithuanian era and survived after the creation of the Commonwealth and the inclusion of the lands mentioned above to the Crown. It is established that after the judicial-administrative reform of 1564–1566, they were not included in the provincial offices’ hierarchy despite several Sejm revisions of it. However, the fate of these offices was different. After the death of Prince Vasily Constantine of Ostroh, marshals of the Volhynian land ceased to exist. The offices of tribunus (Polish: wojski) and standard-bearer (Latin: vexillifer; Polish: chorąży) of the Crown origin were integrated into the land hierarchy. The office of pontonarius (responsible for bridges) gradually lost its functional purpose and disappeared in the first half of the seventeenth century. In Volhynia, the office of borough starost absorbed that of claviger or claviarius (key bearer). Privileges for the superintendent (Latin: praefectus castrorum) were granted until the end of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, their geography expanded, and powers remained only formally. Keywords: old-Lithuanian offices, reforms, evolution, Commonwealth, praefectus castrorum, the hierarchy of land offices. [From the publication]
