Об описании русско-шведской границы на участке Retusaari–Varpavuori, сделанном в 1545 году
On a Survey of the Russian-Swedish Border between Retusaari and Varpavuori as Witnessed in 1545

Summary/Abstract: The border discussed was first defined as a result of the Russian-Swedish negotiations in Oreshek leading to the Orehovets Peace Treaty signed on August 12, 1323. While working in the State Archives of Sweden, we came across a description of the Russian-Swedish border, which has not been mentioned by J. Gallén, O. S. Rydberg, I. S. Šaskolskij, J. Jaakkola in their study of the texts on the Russian-Swedish border. The source dates back to 1545. As a result of comparing the text of this document with other texts of the Treaty dated 1323, 1537 and 1595, the author comes to the conclusion that the text of 1545 contains many Finnish place-names recurring in the Treaty of 1595, which was signed between Sweden and Muscovy 50 years later.
