Abstract
In the attempts to reconstruct fortifications of mediaeval towns of Rus’, often examples of the wooden defences of the 17th century or earthen ramparts of the 18th–19th century (redoubts, schanzen) are used. However, during the mediaeval epoch, Russian towns had fortifications with wooden walls filled with earth. This was established owing to the application of modern archaeological methods. Therefore it seems inadmissible to use later examples for reconstruc- tion of earlier structures.
