Swantibor († after 1244)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Swantibor , also Swantibor II. , († after 1244) was castellan of Kolberg . As a member of a branch line, the Swantiboriden , he was related to the Greifenhaus ruling in the Duchy of Pomerania .

Swantibor was the only known son of Casimir , castellan of Kolberg. Swantibor's grandfather was Wartislaw Swantiboricz , the founder of the Kolbatz Monastery . His great-grandfather Swantibor was the progenitor of this branch line.

Swantibor appears in Pomeranian documents from around 1220 to 1244. The first mention comes from a document of the Duchess Ingardis , the widow of Duke Casimir II , from 1219/1222, in which Swantibor ("Zwantoborus filius Kazimari") is at the head of the witnesses of the lay state. In a document from 1218/1233 he and his mother gave a village to the Kolbatz monastery . In a document from Duke Barnim I from 1244, with which the Duke confirmed donations from Swantibor to the Kolbatz Monastery, the Duke explicitly referred to Swantibor as his blood relative ("cognatus noster").

Another document may be related to Swantibor: In a document of the Swantiboriden Wartislaw , which dates from the period between 1218 and 1233, his "frater" Swantibor is mentioned. While the historian Martin Wehrmann assumes that this is an otherwise unknown brother of Wartislaw, Klaus Conrad in the Pomeranian document book tends to assume that "frater" is used in the sense of Vetter and then means the Swantibor discussed here.

Like his father, Swantibor was a castellan of Kolberg .

It is not known who Swantibor's wife was. His son Kasimir († before 1281) was also castellan of Kolberg.

The counting of the members of the Greifenhaus has always been involved. There has been an inequality here from age that causes some confusion. The more modern approach basically only counts those relatives of the closer Greifenhaus who have reached adulthood . After that, this Swantibor as a member of a sideline does not receive a number. If, on the other hand, one counts all members of the Greifenhaus, the result is the count as Swantibor II , which was to be found in older literature.
