context_page_description: Sąsiadka is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Sułów, within Zamość County, Lublin Voivodeship, in eastern Poland. It lies approximately 6 kilometres south-west of Sułów, 26 km west of Zamość, and 61 km south of the regional capital Lublin. The village has a population of 500. It is known chiefly as the site of the prized military settlement of Sutiejsk which existed here between the 11th and 13th century CE.
context_section_description: Currently Sąsiadka is a small village, located at the edge of the Roztocze, but its history is very long, dating back to the early Middle Ages. Next to contemporary village lies an ancient Slavic gord, which was one of the most important administrative centers of the so-called “Cherven Towns” (“Grody Czerwieńskie”), a historic region between Poland and Rus’.
  Due to extensive archaeological research, which began in 1936, the gord of Sąsiadka is one of the most thoroughly investigated of all such locales in eastern Poland. According to archaeologists, Sąsiadka was completely destroyed three times. Each time a new gord was established on the ruins of the previous one.
