Chronology

Interactive Chronologies with maps are available in the section Changes Navigation

  • July 1018: The army of Bolesław of Poland crossed the border in 1018 and reached Kiev later that same year. The Battle of the River Bug occurred around July 23.
  • August 1018: Kiev, which suffered from fires caused by the Pecheneg siege, surrendered upon seeing the main Polish army.
  • December 1018: It is not known how long Polish duke Bolesław remained in and around Kiev. Bolesław in fact departed within a few months and, as Thietmar died on December 1, 1018, Bolesław must have been back in Poland a good time before December.
