Swantiboriden

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Swantiboriden were a branch line of the Greifenhaus ruling in Pomerania . The Swantiboriden can be traced for five generations in the 12th and 13th centuries.

history

The progenitor of this branch line, Swantibor , is only known from two documents from 1187 and 1196 in which he is mentioned as the father of Wartislaw Swantiboricz . The latter is referred to in documents as a relative of the Greifenhaus ruling in Pomerania . The exact relationship is unknown; Swantibor I may have been a cousin of the first known dukes from the Greifenhaus, Wartislaw I and Ratibor I. It is also possible that the Swantiborids go back to the Pomeranian Duke Suatobor mentioned in 1106/1107 .

Wartislaw Swantiboricz was castellan of Stettin and founder of the Kolbatz monastery . Some of his descendants are named as castellans of Stettin. Little is known about them. The line of the Swantiboriden died out with Casimir († before 1281).

Whether Bishop Konrad († 1233) von Cammin was a son of Wartislaw Swantiboricz and thus a Swantiboride is controversial. The historian Robert Klempin (1816–1874) assumes this; the historian Martin Wehrmann (1861–1937), however, describes this assumption as "highly dubious" and does not include Bishop Konrad in his family table of the Swantiborids.
