  • Princely Halych: Intriguing Prospects for Archaeological Research
    Journal of Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University Ihor Koval 60http://jpnu.pu.if.ua Vol. 1, No. 4 (2014), 60-72 UDC 9-72/77 (477.86) doi: 10.15330/jpnu.1.4.60-72 PRINCELY HALYCH: INTRIGUING PROSPECTS FOR ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH IHOR KOVAL Abstract. According to statistical data, permanent and local archaeological researches have covered only about ten per cent of the territory of Princely Halych, which opens up endless possibilities for research at the site of the ancient city. The chapter highlights the importance of the scientific and popular works by Antin Petrushevych, Lev Lavretskyi and Izydor Sharanevych, who in 1882 initiated the archaeological research on the mighty Principality of Halych (Galicia) and its capital, and the excavation of the first Christian church in Halych – the Church of the Holy Saviour mentioned in the Kyivan Chronicle. The little-known works of these scientists, which were published in Lviv newspapers in the 1880s, clearly show that Lavretskyi and Sharanevych’s findings received international acclaim and were a significant factor in rousing national consciousness and stimulating social activity of the Galician Ukrainians. It is difficult to explain the lack of interest in carrying out excavations outside the perimeter of the foundations of the Church, which could have enhanced the social, historical, topographical analysis of the monument and its surroundings. A particular fact that proves the importance of such research is the discovery of pendant seals, which modern sphragistics attributes to Prince Volodymyrko Volodarevych (1141- 1153). This conclusion is in good agreement with the Kyivan Chronicle and the findings of the archaeologists who excavated the Church of the Holy Saviour.

This paper was partly delivered at the Fourth Congress of Polish Medieval- ists in 2011.

Commonly employed by historians and other scholar, the expression ‘Poland between East and West’ carries a period-specifi c meaning in a giv- en context. Poland of the sons of Bolesław III Wrymouth was a state of sep- arate, yet cooperating principalities, often standing shoulder to shoulder against the powers of the East and the West. At the time, the East stood for Rus, long-fragmented into principalities, while the West saw the domi- nance of two most important powers of medieval Europe – the Holy Roman 1 M.

  • The Emperor Manuel's Cross in Notre Dame: on Its Origin and Path
    The Emperor Manuel’s Cross in Notre Dame: On its Origin and Path Alexander V. Maiorov MONG THE MOST REVERED RELICS in the treasury of Notre Dame de Paris is an ancient reliquary cross that A contains a small piece of the Venerable and Life-giving Cross of Christ. It is a double (or Jerusalem) cross; a golden plate attached at the back includes two iambic verses: I(ΗϹΟΥ)Ϲ X(ΡΙϹΤΟ)Ϲ Στ(αυ)ρῷ παγεὶς ὑψώσας ἀν(θρώπ)ων φύσιν. † Γράφει Μανουὴλ Κοµνηνὸς στεφηφόρος. Jesus Christ: nailed to the cross, he, who exalted humankind. So writes Manuel Komnenos the Crown-Bearer. Experts from the Louvre thoroughly examined the cross in connection with the exhibition “Byzantium. The Masterpieces of Byzantine Art in the Public Collections of France” (Paris 1992/3).1 The relic is known to have been in France since the second half of the 17th century. From 1684 it was kept in the Abbey of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the oldest and most revered Christian cloister in France. After the French Revolution, the relic came to reside in the cathedral of Notre Dame. 1 J.

  • The Dynasty of Chernigov, 1146-1246
    This page intentionally left blank THE DYNASTY OF CHERNIGOV, 1146–1246 Historians in pre-revolutionary Russia, in the Soviet Union, in con- temporary Russia, and the Westhave consistently relegated the dynasty of Chernigov to a place of minor importance in Kievan Rus. This view was buttressed by the evidence that, after the Mongols invaded Rus in 1237, the two branches from the House of Monomakh living in the Rostov-Suzdal and Galicia-Volyn regions emerged as the most powerful. However, careful examination of the chronicle accounts report- ing the dynasty’s history during the second half of the twelfth and the first half of the thirteenth century shows that the Olgovichi of Chernigov successfully challenged the Monomashichi for supremacy in Rus. Through a critical analysis of the available primary sources (such as chronicles, archaeology, coins, seals, “graffiti” in churches, and architecture) this book attempts to correct the pervading erro- neous view by allocating to the Olgovichi their rightful place in the dynastic hierarchy of Kievan Rus. martin dimnik is Professor of Medieval History,Senior Fellow and President Emeritus, Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies, Toronto, and Professor of Medieval History,University of Toronto.
