Simonas Daukantas, Sėmuons Daukants or Polish Szymon Dowkont[1][2] (1793 - 1864; pen-name Jakyb Łaukys[1]) was a Lithuanian writer[3], ethnographer and historian. One of the pioneers of the Lithuanian national revival, he is credited with the first book on the History of Lithuania written in the Lithuanian language. He also published several books on Lithuanian and Samogitian folklore, and wrote a Polish-Lithuanian dictionary.[3]
Born October 26, 1793, at Kalviai, near Skuodas, then in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, now in Lithuania, he moved to Vilnius, where he studied at the University of Vilnius. Because of the suppression of the Filomat and Filaret student movements at Vilnius University, he received his diploma in 1825. He then moved to Dorpat (modern Tartu), where he continued his studies before moving to Riga. From there he moved to St. Petersburg, where he became a clerk at the Lithuanian Metrica Office, and assistant to Franciszek Malewski (together with Franciszek Czarnocki)[2].
He also collaborated with Teodor Narbutt, a historian, and gave him almost eight hundred original documents dealing with Lithuanian history as well as that of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth[1]. He also published several history books and novels in Lithuanian, notably the Pałangos petris, a "Robinson Crusoe-like novel"[1].
In 1850 he returned to Lithuania, where he died December 6, 1864. Among his manuscripts were a Polish-Lithuanian dictionary and a book on the history of Samogitia and Lithuania. Both were published posthumously[1].
