History

The village was founded at the end of the 13th century. In the 14th century Zbraslav monastery owned the village. After Hussite wars the village property was split to become a property of several placeholders (emperor, the town of Vysoké Mýto, nobility, etc.).[2] The town of Vysoké Mýto owned the whole village between the end of the 16th century to 1850. Then the village became autonomous.

Name

The name of the village probably originates in personal name Čban. One of the first reeves or inhabitants was called that. Later the village was called Čbánov and then Džbánov.

gollark: Pastebin's VERY harsh rate limiting means PotatOS Tau actually has to fall back to my server for updates half the time.
gollark: It's also case-sensitive now, breaking SO many things.
gollark: I started up a git server and moved potatOS to it because of the bad changes they badly made.
gollark: Maybe if ender modems were large multiblocks of some sort, or if they could only communicate with stuff at the same X/Y/Z coord across dimensions, or if they could only work with portals nearby or something, we would have CC networking which actually does routing.
gollark: Rednet has the extra thing of IDs, repeaters and its primitive DNS system.
