POLABIAN
An extinct West Slavic language spoken until the first decades of the eighteenth century in an area west of Elbe (Laba 'Elbe') in the Lüneburg Wendland north of Salzwedel, comprising several vilages along the Jeetze river. The Wends, as the Polabians called themselves, were concentrated in a strech of country known as Drawähn (Germany).
