Gau Neletici

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Neletici in the Sorbian tribes.

The (also the) Gau Neletici or Neletizi was established in the 10th century in a Sorbian- populated area east of the Saale and named after the Sorbian capital Nehlitz . Halle and Giebichenstein Castle also belonged to him .

scope

King Otto I (936–973) divided the right-wing Slavic territories newly conquered by the Holy Roman Empire into Gaue , which were mostly given the names of the Sorbian tribes. The former Saalkreis comprised two Sorbian Gaue, the Nudzici - and Neletici-Gau with the Slavic capitals of the same name, Neutz near Wettin and Nehlitz.

East of the Saale belonged to the Gau Neletici of the Burgward Giebichenstein, near the mouth of the Elster into the Saale was the Burgward Radewell in today's Halle district of Radewell / Osendorf . There were other Burgwarde in Thobragora ("Guter Berg" - today Gutenberg ) and Brachstedt (both in Petersberg ), as well as in Oppin and Niemberg (both in Landsberg ).

The western border of Neletici represented the Saale, in the south the flood plain of the White Elster bordered the Gau. The border to Nudzici in the northwest was the Götsche (in its lower reaches still today the border between Halle and the Saalkreis). To the northeast, the Gau was roughly bounded by the area of ​​the Riede , a left tributary of the Fuhne .

history

Quedlinburg in 956 (Recognition mark MGH DD O. I, 184)

The newly conquered Sorbian land was initially in the hands of Otto as a kingdom. I.

On June 26, 952, he exchanged the districts (marcae) of the Gau Neletici in his royal palace, Merseburg , namely Osmünde with two places (loca), Trotha with the castle (castellum) Groitzsch, Thobragora , Brachstedt and Oppin, for goods that were not precisely located (praedia ) of his vassal Billing in the Göttingen area .

The king gave these goods around Göttingen to the Moritzkloster Magdeburg in 953 in his Palatinate Quedlinburg . Here, the exchanged districts of the Neletici Gau were designated as an estate in Slavenland .

On July 29, 961, in his Palatinate Ohrdruf , he gave the tithe of the Gaue Neletici, Nudzici, Quesizi and Zitizi to the Mauritius monastery.

At an unknown time before July 28, 966, part of the exchange between Otto I and Billing from the year 952 was reversed, because Billing had also used his wife's genetic material for this purpose. Presumably, relatives of the woman raised objections after her early death, since according to the law of the time this property had to be returned to the woman's family in the event of a childless marriage. The contract was canceled, and Otto I. received the exchanged districts in Gau Neletici back. On July 28, 966, the king in his Palatinate Wallhausen also gave these goods to the Mauritius monastery. Neustadt, Brogora , Oppin and Brachstedt were mentioned here .
