Note: 1 Sources: RC 143, 209; Clarkson; Riasanovsky; A. Roots 241; Chronicle; Kraentzler 1162, 1170, 1171, 1484. Roots: Svatrislav I, Grand Prince of Kiev, died 973. Married Maloucha. Clarkson calls him Sviatoslav and says he became war leader when he was grown. AF calls him Suitislaus. Other names: Sviatoslav, Swajatoslaw, Svatislav, Stratoslav, Syvastoslav. K: Sviastoslav I/Siratoslav I, Grand Duke de Kiew. RC says Prince of Novgorod, Grand Duke of Kiev, Grand Prince of Pereiaslaw. In Line 209: Svatislaw (Siratozlaw, Swajatislaw) I, Grand Duke of Novgorod, Kiev and Perejaslaw. Grand Prince of Kiev (Roots). Grand Duke of Kiev and Perijaslav (Kraentzler). Latter says he died about the same date Roots lists for his son. Riasanovsky says he ruled from 962-972. From Chronicle: 1044--Two Knyazes, Yaropolk and Oleg, sons of Svyatoslav, were buried, and they christened their bones. (Doesn't say they died then, since Yaropolk apparently ruled until his death in 980). Clarkson: Svitoslav warred against the Khazars, taking their stone fortress at Sarkel on the Don in 963 and destroyed their power when he sacked their capital, Itil, on the lower Volga in 968. He also plundered the capital of the Volga Bulgars in 965. A fierce horde of steppe nomads, the Pechenegs, moved in to supplant the Khazars, and, in the end, Sviatoslav died at the hands of the Pechenegs, whose chief had his skull made into a gold-encrusted drinking cup (972).

Sviatoslav I of Kiev, (Old East Slavic) (c. 942 '96 March 972), also spelled Svyatoslav, was a prince of Rus. The son of Igor of Kiev and Olga, Sviatoslav is famous for his incessant campaigns in the east and south, which precipitated the collapse of two great powers of Eastern Europe, Khazaria and the First Bulgarian Empire. He also conquered numerous East Slavic tribes, defeated the Alans and the Volga Bulgars, and at times was allied with the Pechenegs and Magyars.
