Lestek

  Notater:

Lestek (also Leszek, Lestko) is the second duke of Poland, and son of Siemowit, born c. 870-880. Although proof of his actual existence is unclear, if he did exist, he must have been an influential person, because the tribes that lived in present-day Poland were known as Lestkowici.[citation needed]

The origin of his name is not known, it can be derived from the old Polish word lscie which means "crafty". It is believed this is a diminutive of the Slavic name Lscimir or Lscislaw. Lestek's wife (or wives or consorts) is unknown. A theory by Stanislaw Zakrzewski claims Lestek (or Lestko) could have been married to a Moravian princess. Another theory (inferred from the descriptions of a Belgian chronicler from the 14th century) is that a Saxon princess could have been Lestek's wife and that they had a son, Ewraker, later the Bishop of Leodium. Lestko's son, Siemomysl, was the next ruler of the early pagan Polish state
