Gytha of Wessex (died 1098 or 1107) () was one of several illegitimate daughters of Harold II, the last Anglo-Saxon King of England, by his consort, Edith Swannesha. According to Saxo Grammaticus, Gytha and two of her brothers escaped to the court of their uncle, King Sweyn Estridsson of Denmark. The two brothers were treated by Sweyn with hospitality, while their sister was married to Waldemar, King of Ruthenia, i.e. Vladimir II Monomakh, one of the most famous rulers of Kievan Rus. Gytha was the mother of Mstislav the Great, the last ruler of united Kievan Rus. In the Norse sagas, Mstislav is called Harald after his grandfather. The pateric of St Pantaleon Cloister in Cologne says that "Gytha the Queen" died as a nun on 10 March. A year later Vladimir Monomakh married another woman. ==Children== Their children were: #Mstislav the Great (1076–1132) #Izyaslav Vladimirovich, Prince of Kursk (†September 6, 1096) #Svyatoslav Vladimirovich, Prince of Smolensk and Pereyaslav (†March 16, 1114) #Yaropolk II of Kiev (†February 18, 1139) #Viacheslav I of Kiev (†February 2, 1154) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gytha of Wessex」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
