  • Notes 
    • Also called Siemomysl. Supposedly a son of Lestek, son of Siemowit, making him the third pagan Polans duke of the Piast dynasty, but the actual existence of any of his claimed forbears is unclear. Ziemomyse's existence as the father of Poland's first Christian ruler, Mieszko I, is relatively well-attested.
