Battle of the Altai
Battle of Alta - Battle of 10th century between the troops of Jaroslaw the Wise and the troops of his brother Świętopełla
According to the chronicle of Nestor after leaving at the end of 1018 from Kiev Bolesław Chrobry, Świętopełk felt threatened. In the north Rusi Jaroslaw Mundra gathered great armies and was assisted by Nowogrod and Wareg who prepared for the final hearing with his brother. Świętopełk returned without fighting Kiev and fled to Pieczyngów. He returned to the throne of Kiev in 1019, leading the great army composed mainly of the Pieczyng. On the Altana River (tributary of Trubieza), in the summer of 1019, Jarosław Mądry won the battle of Świętopełk once again. The defeated prince fled again to Poland, and to Brest on the Bug, counting on the favor of his father-in-law Boleslaw Chrobry. Bibliography
