Talk:Rikissa of Poland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
According to English and Swedish (look also sv:Sofia av Minsk) articles the second husband of Rikissa was one of the following persons
- Vladimir of Galich
- Vsevolod of Minsk
- Volodar of Minsk
- Vladimir Vsevolodich of Novgorod
in the time interval 1134-1150s/60s.
I don't know where the first name comes from but he at least existed and is known as Vladimirko Volodarevich, Prince of Galich (-1154) ([1] in Russian), this info is taken most probably from Пчелов Е.В. Рюриковичи. История династии. М., 2001.
Vsevolod Glebovich of Minsk (-1159) and Volodar Glebovich of Minsk (-1167) were brothers ruling the principality one after another. ([2] in Russian).
Vladimir Vsevolodovich is absent in the list of Novgorodian princes ([3] in Russian). Maybe he wasn't a Prince (knyaz himself, but a son of a Prince (knyazhich)
The only source that I'have seen is "De russiske ægteskaber. Dynasti- og alliancepolitik i 1130ernes danske borgerkrig" in Danish (here is its summary in English) and it supports the third "pretender" :), i.e. Volodar of Minsk. Has anyone seen any other source? ru:User:Neko.
