Mount Ślęża (Zobten) - Poland Report Abuse
During the Neolithic Period and at least as far back as the 7th century BC Mount Ślęża (Zob-ten) was a holy place of the heathen tribes of the Lusatian culture. It was then settled by the Celtic-Germanic Lugians. The Silingi, a subpopulation of the East Germanic tribe known as the Vandals are the earliest inhabitants of Silesia known by their name, however the greater part of them moved westwards by the 5th century A.D. and the remainder were slowly replaced in the 6th century by Slavic tribes ("people of the plain"). The Silingi were part of the Przeworsk culture. The name of the territory Silesia either derives from the Sleza River, or from Mount Ślęża. The hill itself was a religious center of the Silingi, and derives its name from them.
