This paper addresses the question whether we should analyze Place, expressing the ab-sence of a change of location, on a par with mode expressions specifying the type of such a change, i. e. Source and Goal. By cross-linguistic study of spatial case systems, various options of analysis are considered and illustrated. It is concluded that languages may differ in their spatial expression of Place, suggesting a non-uniform semantics and, pos- sibly, conceptualization. Also, it is proposed to view these various analyses as diachronic variants.
