Choscisko (Polish pronunciation: [x??'t?isk?]) is a legendary figure in a Polish
prehistory, father of Piast the Wheelwright, the founder of the Piast dynasty. His name
occurs in the first Polish chronicle, Cronicae et gesta ducum sive principum
Polonorum[1] by Gallus Anonymus, where the author refers three times to Piast as the
son of Choscisko.
Choscisko's name is probably derived from a simplified pronunciation of the word
Hastingsko derived from the term Hasding ( meaning long-haired[2]) which was difficult
to pronounce in Old Slavonic. The other analysis suggests that Choscisko's name is
probably derived from chost or chwost meaning tail in old Slavic.
