What do the numbers and letters after the first few names mean? Some sort of date?
All names before Mieszko I are legendary and even Mieszko I ( read wiki)was a name used at a later time. The only name actually mentioned in the 11th century is Dagome Dagome Iudex.
Someone wrote this list and it should probably be specified , that the names are legendary and the Roman numerals should be removed. user:H.J.
this page should be probably merges with Piast CC, 07:58, 18 Nov 2003 (UTC)
[edit] Historian Adam Naruszewicz introduced the term Piast dynasty in 18th Century
The Piast dynasty history was developed after historian Adam Naruszewicz (1733-1796) for the first time used the name Piast Dynasty for early ruler of the Polans. This developed the story of Dukes and Kings of Poland from its beginnings as an independent state up to 1370, with branches of the Piasts continuing to rule allied duchies in Masovia until 1526 and Silesia until 1675.
Piast (caretaker, wheelright) was the legendary founder of the Piast Dynasty. His name was first mentioned in the Cronicae et gesta ducum sive principum Polonorum by Gallus Anonymous, written in ca 1113. Although the early dukes and kings considered themselves Piast's descendants, the term "Piast Dynasty" was invented in the 17th century by the historians, working for a number of rulers who governed their duchies in Silesia. The last Piast George William, duke of Brzeg and Legnica, died in 1675, although numerous families link genealogy to Piast . Lech was the legendary founder of Poland imprinted in neighbours languages as Lechia.
