Talk:Bolesław III Wrymouth
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Who is he? King or something?
Boleslaus III or Boleslaw III Wrymouth, was duke of Poland. Between 1079 (+ Boleslaus II) and 1295, Bohemia/ Poland kings, there were only dukes of Poland. See dates on top of list of rulers. H.J.
[edit] judith of bohemia
I am confused about this reference because, while I do have Judith of Bohemia as his mother, I don't have Henry III as her father. I think Henry III is the father of Judith of Swabia, Ladislaus Herman's second wife (and Boleslaus III's stepmother).
[edit] Why Wrymouth?
Where does the nickname Wrymouth come from?
- In the original Polish, "Krzywousty." He apparently had a "wry" ("krzywo-", "crooked") "mouth" ("-usty"). logologist|Talk 08:37, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
