River names frequently found in medieval documents are often very important for toponymic researches. From these sources from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries the author has gathered fourteen names of rivers in the vicinity of the towns of Broumov and Police nad Metuji in the Northeast Bohemia. The localised river names, alphabetically ordered, are given their etymology and meaning. All of them are derived from the Czech language.
