Vyachko
Vyachko of Koknese, also ''Vetseke of Kokenhusen'' ((ラテン語:Rex Vesceka de Kukenois),〔Also spelled as (Kuikenos )〕 (ラトビア語:Vetseke), (ロシア語:Вячко)) was the ruler of the Principality of Koknese in present-day Latvia, a vassal of Polotsk, who unsuccessfully tried to establish himself as a local ruler first in Latvia and then in Estonia, and fought against the expansionism of the Livonian Knights at the turn of the 13th century.
==Identity of Vyachko/Vetseke==
His name is the Old Novgorod dialect form of ''Vyacheslav''.
According to Russian sources, his father is supposed to have been a Rurikid prince of Drutsk. Another interpretation, based on evidence from the ''Chronicle of Henry of Livonia'', is that he came from a local élite, perhaps a Livonian, who converted to Orthodox Christianity and became a vassal of Polotsk, whereupon he changed his name to the East Slavic ''Vyachko''.
The ''Chronicle'' says the population of Koknese included Balts (Latgallians and Selonians) and even a German colony, in addition to the East Slavic element.〔 On the Baltic population of Koknese, cf. Brundage, ''op. cit.'', p. 78f.〕
