/* Evidence */ Jüterbog's etymology is not without doubt, cf. the German wikipedia article on this (link added). (I'll translate briefly for non-natives speakers: The name might stem from a body of water instead, containing the Germanic suffix -baka/-baki for "river" which has been changed to fit Slavic phonology by Slavic settlers in the area, and then was adapted to a new residental settlement close by the shore.)
