Biografi

Legenden säger att Estrid togs tillbaka till Sverige från ett krig i västra slaviska området Mecklenburg som ett krig - pris. Hon var troligen från sin far , en tribal chefen för Polabian obotriterna , som ett tackoffer i ett äktenskap att försegla fred , och hon tros ha fört med sig en stor hemgift , som en stor slavisk inflytande är representerat i Sverige från sin tid , främst bland hantverkare.

Hennes man hade också en älskarinna , Edla , som kom från samma område i Europa som sig själv, och som var om möjligt tas till Sverige vid samma tidpunkt . Kungen behandlas Edla och Estrid på samma sätt och gav sin son och hans två döttrar med Edla samma privilegies som barn han hade med Estrid , fast det var Estrid gifte han sig och gjorde Queen.

Drottning Estrid döptes tillsammans med sin make , sina barn och ett stort antal av det svenska hovet i 1008 , när den svenska kungafamiljen konverterat till kristendomen , men kungen lovade att respektera religionsfriheten - Sverige var inte för att vara kristna till den sista religiöst krig mellan Inge den äldre och Blot-Sven i 1084-1088 .

Snorre Sturlassons skrev om henne, att Estrid var ovänlig mot barnen ( Emund , Astrid och Holmfrid ) av makens älskarinna Edla , " Drottning Estrid var arrogant och inte snällt mot henne styvbarn , och därför konungen sände sin son Emund till Vendland , där Han uppfostrades av sin moderns släktingar " .

Inte mycket är känt av Estrid som person. Snorre Sturlassons nämner henne som en älskare av pomp och lyx , och så hård och sträng mot sina tjänare .

Estrid (Astrid) was a Slav that came from the western Slavic regions along the southern Baltic Sea coast. Her year of birth is uncertain, as another source indicates approximately 985. According to one source, she left her husband in 1019 and married the Norwegian King Olav Haraldsson, but other data argues she stayed with Olof, who died in 1022.

From the Wikipedia page on Estrid of the Obotrites:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estrid_of_the_Obotrites

Estrid (or Astrid) of the Obotrites (ca. 979 – 1035), was a Medieval and Viking age Swedish Queen consort and West Slavic Princess, married to Olof Skötkonung, the King of Sweden, ca. 1000–1022, mother of king Anund Jacob of Sweden and the Russian Saint and Queen (Grand Princess) Ingegerd Olofsdotter.

Biography

Legend says that Estrid was taken back to Sweden from a war in the West Slavic area of Mecklenburg as a war-prize. She was most likely given by her father, a tribal chief of the Polabian Obotrites, as a peace offering in a marriage to seal the peace, and she is thought to have brought with her a great dowry, as a great Slavic influence is represented in Sweden from her time, mainly among craftsmen.

Her husband also had a mistress, Edla, who came from the same area in Europe as herself, and who was possibly taken to Sweden at the same time. The king treated Edla and Estrid the same way and gave his son and his two daughters with Edla the same privilegies as the children he had with Estrid, though it was Estrid he married and made Queen.

Queen Estrid was baptised with her husband, their children and large numbers of the Swedish royal court in 1008, when the Swedish royal family converted to Christianity, although the king promised to respect the freedom of religion - Sweden was not to be Christian until the last religious war between Inge the Elder and Blot-Sweyn of 1084-1088.

Snorre Sturlasson wrote about her, that Estrid was unkind to the children (Emund, Astrid and Holmfrid) of her husband's mistress Edla; "Queen Estrid was arrogant and not kind towards her stepchildren, and therefore the king sent his son Emund to Vendland, where he was brought up by his maternal relatives".

Not much is known of Estrid as a person. Snorre Sturlasson mentions her as a lover of pomp and luxury, and as hard and strict towards her servants.

Children

1. Ingegerd Olofsdotter (circa 1001-1054), Grand Princess of Kiev, in Russia called Anna, married Yaroslav I the Wise, prince of Novgorod and Kiev.

2. Anund Jacob (circa 1010-1050), king of Sweden, succeeded Olaf as king in c. 1022.

From the Wikipedia page on the Obotrites:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obotrites

The Obotrites (German: Abodriten), also commonly known as the Obodrites, Abotrites, or Abodrites, were a confederation of medieval West Slavic tribes within the territory of modern Mecklenburg and Holstein in northern Germany (see Polabian Slavs). For decades they were allies of Charlemagne in his wars against Germanic Saxons and Slavic Veleti.

In 798 the Obodrites, ruled by prince Drożko, or Draško (Thrasco, orig.), defeated Saxons in the battle on Swentana river. The still heathen Saxons (Nordalbingians) were dispersed by the emperor, and the part of their former land in Holstein north of Elbe was awarded to the Obotrites in 804, as a reward for their victory. This however was soon reverted by invasion of Danes.

The Bavarian Geographer, an anonymous medieval document compiled in Regensburg in 830, contains a list of the tribes in Central Eastern Europe to the east of the Elbe. The list includes the Nortabtrezi (Obotrites) - with 53 civitates. Adam of Bremen referred to them as the Reregi because of their lucrative trade emporium Reric. In common with other Slavic groups, they were often described by Germanic sources as Wends.

The main tribes[1] of the Obotritic confederation were:

1. the Obotrites proper (Wismar Bay to Lake Schwerin);

2. the Wagrians (the eastern Holstein as part of Saxony);

3. the Warnower (the upper Warnow and Mildenitz);

4. the Polabians proper (between the Trave and the Elbe, SUPPOSEDLY OUR ANCESTOR COMES FROM HERE).

Other tribes associated with the confederation include:

1. the Linonen near Lenzen,

2. the Travnjane near the Trave,

3. the Drevani in the Hanoverian Wendland and the northern Altmark.[2]

The Limes Saxoniae forming the border between the Saxons to the west and the Obotrites to the eastAs allies of the Carolingian kings and the empire of their Ottonian successors, the Obotrites fought from 808 to 1200 against the kings of Denmark, who wished to rule the Baltic region independently of the empire.

When opportunities arose, for instance upon the death of an emperor, they would seek to seize power; and in 983 Hamburg was destroyed by the Obotrites under their king, Mstivoj. At times they levied tribute from the Danes and Saxons.

Under the leadership of Niklot, they resisted a Christian assault during the Wendish Crusade.

From the Wikipedia page on the Polabians:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polabians_(tribe)

The Polabians (German: Polaben; Latin: Polabi) were a constituent West Slavic tribe of the Obotrites who lived between the Trave and the Elbe. The main settlement of the Polabians was Racisburg (modern Ratzeburg), named after their Prince Ratibor. The Polabians were similar to the Drevani, also known as the Draväno-polaben or Drevanen, in Lüchow-Dannenberg.

Ben notes: The picture used to depict this person is not actually Estrid, but rather is a Swedish chess piece (a Queen) from Estrid's time period, near the turn of the first millenium AD.

She was most likely given by her father, a tribal chief of the Polabian Obotrites, as a peace offering in a marriage to seal the peace, and she is thought to have brought with her a great dowry, as a great Slavic influence is represented in Sweden from her time, mainly among craftsmen.

Her husband also had a mistress, Edla, who came from the same area in Europe as herself, and who was possibly taken to Sweden at the same time. The king treated Edla and Estrid the same way and gave his son and his two daughters with Edla the same privileges as the children he had with Estrid, though it was Estrid he married and made Queen.

Queen Estrid was baptised with her husband, their children and large numbers of the Swedish royal court in 1008, when the Swedish royal family converted to Christianity, although the king promised to respect the freedom of religion - Sweden was not to be Christian until the last religious war between Inge the Elder and Blot-Sweyn of 1084-1088.

Snorre Sturlasson wrote about her, that Estrid was unkind to the children (Emund, Astrid and Holmfrid) of her husband's mistress Edla; " Queen Estrid was arrogant and not kind towards her stepchildren, and therefore the king sent his son Emund to Vendland, where he was brought up by his maternal relatives".

Not much is known of Estrid as a person. Snorre Sturlasson mentions her as a lover of pomp and luxury, and as hard and strict towards her servants.

[edit] ChildrenIngegerd Olofsdotter (circa 1001-1054), Grand Princess of Kiev, in Russia called Anna, married Yaroslav I the Wise, prince of Novgorod and Kiev. Anund Jacob (circa 1010-1050), king of Sweden, succeeded Olaf as king in c. 1022.

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/15927232/estrith

"Queen of Sweden. With approximate years of birth and death given here, her original West Slavic heritage as a Princess of the Obotrites, in what now is Mecklenburg in northern Germany, is recorded in several sources. It can be assumed with reasonable certainty that she belonged to the early Nicholan Dynasty, and it is likely she was born near Schwerin. After the Battle of Swolder in 1000 she married the important Swedish ruler Olaf (V) Scotking and became his Queen Consort. Their son Anwynd James (Anund Jakob) was born around 1007. His double name, half pagan, half Christian, was created for diplomatic reasons and constitutes a start of the double first names that have been used by millions in the subsequent Swedish population. A year later Princess Ingigarth was born and the whole family was baptized by St. Siegfried at Husaby. Estrith saw her daughter's hand declined the suit of King Olaf II the Holy of Norway, whom her husband vehemently hated, but granted Great Prince Yaroslav I of far-away Kiev in 1020. According to Snorri Sturluson, Queen Estrith was "haughty and unkind to her step-children", King Olaf's earlier offspring by his official concubine Lady Ethel. To spare his elder son the problem, Olaf had had to send the future King Edmund (III) away to Lusatia to be brought up by Ethel's family. The queen was widowed two years after Ingigarth's wedding and probably survived Olaf by about a decade, passing away well into the reign of King Anwynd (IV) James. Due to his reported blindness, and in spite of his "golden clothing", the new king's unsuccessful war campaign to the Ukraine in 1024 to aid his brother-in-law against insurgents must have worried his mother at home. The burial of Estrith and Olaf near the sacred spring where they had been christened is related in later records, and the age of grave monuments found at Husaby Church coincides."

_________________

Olof was the son of Eric the Victorious (Erik Segersäll) and a woman whose identity is debated. According to Adam of Bremen she was the sister or daughter of Boleslaw I Chrobry of Poland, according to Icelandic sources she was Sigrid the Haughty (Sigrid Storråda), a daughter of the Viking chief Skoglar Toste. Certain sources say that Olof had a brother called Emunde.

With his first spouse (a mistress), Edla, daughter of a Slavic chief, he had three children: Emund the Old, King of Sweden in c. 1050-1060 Astrid, d. after 1035, married to Olaf II of Norway (Olaf the Saint) Holmfrid (possibly sister of Olof), married to Sven Jarl of Norway

With his second spouse, Queen Estrid of the Obotrites, he had two children: Anund Jacob, King of Sweden in 1022-c. 1050 Ingegerd, d. 1050, married to Yaroslav I of Kiev

I årtionden de var allierade med Karl den store i hans krig mot germanska saxare och slaviska Veleti . I 798 av Obodrites , styrdes av prins Drożko besegrade sachsare i slaget under Święciana .

From the Wikipedia page on Estrid of the Obotrites:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estrid_of_the_Obotrites

Estrid (or Astrid) of the Obotrites (ca. 979 – 1035), was a Medieval and Viking age Swedish Queen consort and West Slavic Princess, married to Olof Skötkonung, the King of Sweden, ca. 1000–1022, mother of king Anund Jacob of Sweden and the Russian Saint and Queen (Grand Princess) Ingegerd Olofsdotter.

Biography

Legend says that Estrid was taken back to Sweden from a war in the West Slavic area of Mecklenburg as a war-prize. She was most likely given by her father, a tribal chief of the Polabian Obotrites, as a peace offering in a marriage to seal the peace, and she is thought to have brought with her a great dowry, as a great Slavic influence is represented in Sweden from her time, mainly among craftsmen.

Her husband also had a mistress, Edla, who came from the same area in Europe as herself, and who was possibly taken to Sweden at the same time. The king treated Edla and Estrid the same way and gave his son and his two daughters with Edla the same privilegies as the children he had with Estrid, though it was Estrid he married and made Queen.

Queen Estrid was baptised with her husband, their children and large numbers of the Swedish royal court in 1008, when the Swedish royal family converted to Christianity, although the king promised to respect the freedom of religion - Sweden was not to be Christian until the last religious war between Inge the Elder and Blot-Sweyn of 1084-1088.

Snorre Sturlasson wrote about her, that Estrid was unkind to the children (Emund, Astrid and Holmfrid) of her husband's mistress Edla; "Queen Estrid was arrogant and not kind towards her stepchildren, and therefore the king sent his son Emund to Vendland, where he was brought up by his maternal relatives".

Not much is known of Estrid as a person. Snorre Sturlasson mentions her as a lover of pomp and luxury, and as hard and strict towards her servants.

Children

1. Ingegerd Olofsdotter (circa 1001-1054), Grand Princess of Kiev, in Russia called Anna, married Yaroslav I the Wise, prince of Novgorod and Kiev.

2. Anund Jacob (circa 1010-1050), king of Sweden, succeeded Olaf as king in c. 1022.

From the Wikipedia page on the Obotrites:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obotrites

The Obotrites (German: Abodriten), also commonly known as the Obodrites, Abotrites, or Abodrites, were a confederation of medieval West Slavic tribes within the territory of modern Mecklenburg and Holstein in northern Germany (see Polabian Slavs). For decades they were allies of Charlemagne in his wars against Germanic Saxons and Slavic Veleti.

In 798 the Obodrites, ruled by prince Drożko, or Draško (Thrasco, orig.), defeated Saxons in the battle on Swentana river. The still heathen Saxons (Nordalbingians) were dispersed by the emperor, and the part of their former land in Holstein north of Elbe was awarded to the Obotrites in 804, as a reward for their victory. This however was soon reverted by invasion of Danes.

The Bavarian Geographer, an anonymous medieval document compiled in Regensburg in 830, contains a list of the tribes in Central Eastern Europe to the east of the Elbe. The list includes the Nortabtrezi (Obotrites) - with 53 civitates. Adam of Bremen referred to them as the Reregi because of their lucrative trade emporium Reric. In common with other Slavic groups, they were often described by Germanic sources as Wends.

The main tribes[1] of the Obotritic confederation were:

1. the Obotrites proper (Wismar Bay to Lake Schwerin);

2. the Wagrians (the eastern Holstein as part of Saxony);

3. the Warnower (the upper Warnow and Mildenitz);

4. the Polabians proper (between the Trave and the Elbe, SUPPOSEDLY OUR ANCESTOR COMES FROM HERE).

Other tribes associated with the confederation include:

1. the Linonen near Lenzen,

2. the Travnjane near the Trave,

3. the Drevani in the Hanoverian Wendland and the northern Altmark.[2]

The Limes Saxoniae forming the border between the Saxons to the west and the Obotrites to the eastAs allies of the Carolingian kings and the empire of their Ottonian successors, the Obotrites fought from 808 to 1200 against the kings of Denmark, who wished to rule the Baltic region independently of the empire.

When opportunities arose, for instance upon the death of an emperor, they would seek to seize power; and in 983 Hamburg was destroyed by the Obotrites under their king, Mstivoj. At times they levied tribute from the Danes and Saxons.

Under the leadership of Niklot, they resisted a Christian assault during the Wendish Crusade.

From the Wikipedia page on the Polabians:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polabians_(tribe)

The Polabians (German: Polaben; Latin: Polabi) were a constituent West Slavic tribe of the Obotrites who lived between the Trave and the Elbe. The main settlement of the Polabians was Racisburg (modern Ratzeburg), named after their Prince Ratibor.

Estrid of the Obotrites

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Estrid (or Astrid) of the Obotrites (ca. 979 – 1035), was a Swedish queen consort, married to Olof Skötkonung, the King of Sweden, ca. 1000, and mother of king Anund Jacob of Sweden.

Biography

Legend say Estrid was taken back to Sweden as a war-price; she was most likely given by her father, a chieftain of the Polabian Obotrites, as a peace offering in a marriage to seal the peace, and the guess is that she brought a great dowry, as a great Slavic influence is represented in Sweden from her time, mainly among craftsmen.

Her husband also had a mistress, Edla, who came from the same area in Europe as herself and who was perhaps taken to Sweden at the same time, and the king treated Edla and Estrid the same way and gave his son and two daughters with Edla the same privilegies as the children he had with Estrid, though it was Estrid he married and made queen.

Queen Estrid was baptised with her husband, their children and large parts of the Swedish court in 1008, when the Swedish royal family converted to Christianity, though the king promised to respect the freedom of religion - Sweden was not to be Christian until the last religion war of 1084-1088.

Snorre Sturlasson wrote, that Estrid was unkind to the children (Emund, Astrid and Holmfrid) of her husband's mistress Edla;

" Queen Estrid was arrogant and not kind towards her stepchildren and therefore the king sent his son Emund to Vendland, were he was brought up by his maternal relatives".

Not much is known of Estrid as a person. Snorre Sturlasson mentions her as the lover of pomp and luxury and as hard and strict towards her servants.

[edit]Children

Their son Anund Jacob succeeded Olaf as king. A daughter, Ingegerd Olofsdotter, in Russia called Anna, married Yaroslav I the Wise, prince of Novgorod and Kiev.

"Queen of Sweden. With approximate years of birth and death given here, her original West Slavic heritage as a Princess of the Obotrites, in what now is Mecklenburg in northern Germany, is recorded in several sources. It can be assumed with reasonable certainty that she belonged to the early Nicholan Dynasty, and it is likely she was born near Schwerin. After the Battle of Swolder in 1000 she married the important Swedish ruler Olaf (V) Scotking and became his Queen Consort. Their son Anwynd James (Anund Jakob) was born around 1007. His double name, half pagan, half Christian, was created for diplomatic reasons and constitutes a start of the double first names that have been used by millions in the subsequent Swedish population. A year later Princess Ingigarth was born and the whole family was baptized by St. Siegfried at Husaby. Estrith saw her daughter's hand declined the suit of King Olaf II the Holy of Norway, whom her husband vehemently hated, but granted Great Prince Yaroslav I of far-away Kiev in 1020. According to Snorri Sturluson, Queen Estrith was "haughty and unkind to her step-children", King Olaf's earlier offspring by his official concubine Lady Ethel. To spare his elder son the problem, Olaf had had to send the future King Edmund (III) away to Lusatia to be brought up by Ethel's family. The queen was widowed two years after Ingigarth's wedding and probably survived Olaf by about a decade, passing away well into the reign of King Anwynd (IV) James. Due to his reported blindness, and in spite of his "golden clothing", the new king's unsuccessful war campaign to the Ukraine in 1024 to aid his brother-in-law against insurgents must have worried his mother at home. The burial of Estrith and Olaf near the sacred spring where they had been christened is related in later records, and the age of grave monuments found at Husaby Church coincides."

_________________

Olof was the son of Eric the Victorious (Erik Segersäll) and a woman whose identity is debated. According to Adam of Bremen she was the sister or daughter of Boleslaw I Chrobry of Poland, according to Icelandic sources she was Sigrid the Haughty (Sigrid Storråda), a daughter of the Viking chief Skoglar Toste. Certain sources say that Olof had a brother called Emunde.

With his first spouse (a mistress), Edla, daughter of a Slavic chief, he had three children: Emund the Old, King of Sweden in c. 1050-1060 Astrid, d. after 1035, married to Olaf II of Norway (Olaf the Saint) Holmfrid (possibly sister of Olof), married to Sven Jarl of Norway

With his second spouse, Queen Estrid of the Obotrites, he had two children: Anund Jacob, King of Sweden in 1022-c. 1050 Ingegerd, d. 1050, married to Yaroslav I of Kiev

О Estrid of the Obotrites (русский)

Королева Эстриди, мать святой Анны, происходившая из самого знатного рода Швеции, была известна своим выдающимся умом, любвеобильным сердцем и великодушием.

Пребывала сначала в городе Упсале, затем попеременно то в построенной королем на морском берегу Новой Сигтуне, то в городе Скаре, где находилась кафедра епископа и сосредоточивались главные христианские силы страны.

Biografi
Storfurstinna i Kiev (Gårdarike), Nunna och Sveriges första helgon. Född 1000. Död 1050/02/10 i Ryssland, Kiev, Vyšhorod. Begravda i Ryssland, Kiev, Sofiakatedralen. Olof Skötkonungs dotter Ingegerd, som växte upp i Sigtuna, blev rysk storfurstinna och, efter sin död, ortodoxt helgon. Ett märkligt levnadsöde i the English historien! Sigtunas okända helgon För 947 år sedan, den 10 februari 1050, dog nunnan Anna i Novgorod i Ryssland. Anna, som var i 50-årsåldern, hade gått i kloster Bara Något år före sin död. Under nunnedoket dolde sig ingen mindre Än storfurstinnan Irina, Rysslands mäktigaste kvinna. Hennes EGENTLIGA namn var Ingegerd och hon var dotter till kung Olof Skötkonung i Sigtuna. Ingegerd föddes omkring år 1000. Var hon föddes vet vi Inte Säkert. Kungen och hans familj var mycket på resande fot. Men Eftersom det var i Sigtuna som Olof år 995 lat Satta igång myntslagning, den första i Sverige stadens Är det Troligt Att han tidvis Skötte politik och förvaltning från Kungsgård. Under vikingatiden var det Mycket vanligt Att kungabarn skickades till släktingar uppfostras för att. Ingegerds mor var en Slavisk furstedotter som hette Estrid och Ingegerds bror Jakob växte upp hos nutida familj vid södra Östersjökusten. Styvsystern Astrid skickades till en västgötahövding, Egil. Men Ingegerd uppfostrades i föräldrahemmet, som således - Åtminstone tidvis - Lag i Sigtuna. Inget är kant om hennes utbildning män missionärer och präster, som vistades hos kungen, undervisade henne säkert i laran den kristna. Kung Olof var en hetlevrad människa och det var hans fru också, Enligt den islandske krönikören Snorre Sturlasson. Det kan med andra ord ibland hetsigt ha gått till i Kungsgården. Ingegerd, som ska ha Varit En mycket vacker flicka, tycks ha Varit Olofs ögonsten. Hon var i alla fall Inte rädd för Att Säga var hon tyckte även om det var tvärtemot hennes fars uppfattning. Att äktenskap blev politiskt fördelaktiga VaR för Vikingatidens kungar Lika Viktigt som Att de hade framgång i krig. Ingegerd kom, När hon blev giftasvuxen, att Dras in i Detta maktspel. Först friade Norges unge kung Olav Haraldsson Genom ombud till henne. Frieriet gjorde Olof Skötkonung rasande. Ingegerds Far och den norske kungen (den blivande Olav den helige) var nämligen bittra fiender. Olof brukade föraktfullt kalla Olav för "tjockisen". Norske Olavs Frieri till Ingegerd var Samtidigt Ett fredsinitiativ. Men Olof Skötkonung ville Int höra talas om Någon försoning med Olav, hur varmt Än Ingegerd talade för giftermålsplanerna. Det var inte förrän Torgny Lagman och sveahövdingarna på Tinget i Uppsala 15 februari 1018 hotat kung Olof med Att han skulle mista huvudet om facket han Int fred med kungen den norske, som han motvilligt gav med sig. Män Något bröllop blev det aldrig, travar Att den ivriga Ingegerd Skickat fästmannen en guldstickad kappa. Olof hindrade Helt enkelt dottern från att resa till Norge. Men Olof lurar sin blivande mag, som väntar på Ingegerd en hel sommar vid Kongahälla (nuvarande Kungälv). Det dröjde Inte Länge Innan sändebud från en ny friare dok upp. Det var Jaroslav I, kievrysk furste i Novgorod och kallad "den vise", som hörde av sig. Olof Skötkonung blev Mycket lättad och glad över Detta giftermålsanbud. Förhållandet till fadern var säkert frostigt efter affären med Olav, och för Ingegerd var det Knappast tal Om att våga neka. Men hon Ställde villkor: en svensk Hövding, jarl Ragnvald, skulle Följa med henne österut och hon ville Också ha landskapet Ladoga och som brudgåva personlig förläning. Fadern, och Jaroslavs Ambassadörer, Accepterade. Halvsystern Astrid fick istället bli ersättare för den utlovade Ingegerd och giftes bort med kung Olav i Norge. Ingegerd hade Ännu inte fyllt 20 år När hon blev rysk furstinna. Hon tycks ha Fått det ganska Bra där borta i landet Rus; landet är kristnat och har livliga förbindelser med båtar de Nordiska Länderna och det övriga Europa. Jordbruk, hantverk och handel är inne i en blomstringsperiod, med det finns flera stora städer Kiev som huvudsäte. Med sin viljestyrka och sin näsa för maktspel framstår hon i källorna som en Viktig rådgivare till sin 25 år äldre man, på Flera ställen rentav som den Dominerande av de två. Hon lyckades, enligt EN isländsk källa, Till exempel en gång Att stifta fred Mellan Jaroslav och en av hans bröder, bara När Deras arméer skulle gå lös på varandra. Därmed ger hon Också skäl för Sitt nya ryska namn Irina, som betyder "fred". År 1035 hade Jaroslav lyckat besegra och manövrera ut alla medtävlare om makten i Ryssland och han och Ingegerd kund för gott Flytta till huvudstaden, Kiev. Därmed inleddes det ryska rikets första guldålder. Storfursten byggde en helt ny stadsdel, omgiven av Lång Flera kilometer lång, elva meter Hög Vall. Tre portar ledde in dit: den förnämsta kallades Gyllene porten. Det var kejsarstaden, Konstantinopel, som var förebilden och Jaroslav öppnade Kiev och övriga Ryssland för grekiska präster, arkitekter, konstnärer och hantverkare. Sofiakatedralen Ännu står kvar och är byggnadsmonumentet framför andra i Kiev från denna epok. Den domineras av de festliga, Gyllene lökkupolerna. Därinne skiftar färgerna dunkelt och trolskt över totalt omkring 5000 kvm bilder med Både kyrkliga och världsliga motiv. I putsen på kyrkans väggar går Ännu Att urskilja Vissa av de målningar, som gjordes När Byggnaden var ny. Bland dem finns Också bilder av barnen i furstefamiljen. Också Jaroslav och Ingegerd malades av i kyrkan, men de bilderna är tyvärr försvunna. Väggen Där Dessa målningar fanns revs på 1600-talet. Sju söner och tre döttrar är Kända från Jaroslavs och Ingegerds äktenskap. Sönerna hette Ilja, Vladimir, Zjaslav, Svjatoslav, Vsevolod, Igor och Vjatjeslav. Av döttrarna blev en, Elisabet, gift med alla tiders kanske viking största norska, Harald Hårdråde, en gammal vapenbroder till Jaroslav. En andra dotter, Anastasia, gifte sig med Ungerns blivande kung Andreas. Den tredje dottern, Anna, gifte sig med Henrik I av Frankrike, en av de första i den så kallade kapetingska Ätten. När Anna kom från Kiev till Frankrike väckte hon sensation Genom sin bildning, hon kund nämligen läsa och skriva, det Kunde inte de Andra Kvinnorna vid det franska hovet. Ättlingar till kapetingerna regerar en i dag i Europa. Kung Juan Carlos I Spanien är, om man räknar på Detta Sätt, en av Ingegerds sentida ättlingar Liksom storfursten Jean av Bourbon-Parma, Luxemburgs Nuvarande regent och Otto von Habsburg. Ingegerds äktenskap med Jaroslav varade i 30 år. Men sin ungdomskärlek, norrmannen Olav Haraldsson, glömde hon aldrig. Når det blivande norska nationalhelgonet 1028 drevs på flykten från Hemlandet fann han en fristad i Novgorod. Nu fick han Också träffa Ingegerd. "Hon och Olav älskade varandra i hemlighet", om man får tro en isländsk källa, Emunds saga. Ingegerd tog Också till sig Olavs son Magnus som fosterbarn, vid för När Olav återvände till Norge - han skulle Komma Att stupa vid slaget Stiklastad - stannade pojken hos Ingegerd. Så småningom blev Magnus Olavsson ( "den gode") kung av Norge, med han. Enligt ortodoxa källor ägnade sig Ingegerd (hennes ryska namn var Irina) Intensivt åt kyrkan och det religiösa livet. Hon instiftade Ett nunnekloster och lat, mot slutet av Sitt liv, själv viga sig till Nunna Enligt den strängaste ordningen och fick Då Namnet Anna. "Hon visade därmed sin djupa fromhet sant och synd kristna Ödmjukhet", heter det. En rysk 1800-talskälla slår fast: "Anna (Ingegerd) var det första exemplet på Att storfurstliga personer blev heliga Genom Att gå i kloster. Denna sedvana, som hämtats från grekiska härskare, började i Ryssland på 1000-talet och fortsatte oavbrutet Nästan till 1600-talet ". Ingegerds kvarlevor vilar tillsamman med makens i en sarkofag i Sofiakatedralen i Kiev. Det är en massiv, Nästan Två och halv meter stor pjäs i grå marmor. Sovjetiska forskare öppnade sarkofagen 1939 och undersökte innehållet. Ingegerds välbevarade kranium var av nordisk typ, massivt och tungt med en elliptisk form.
