OF STOCKOW Biagota
Birth:          ABT  901 of Praha, Bohemia
of Praha, Bohemia

Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biagota
Biagota was probably the wife of duke Boleslaus I of Bohemia.

Michal Lutovský writes in his book Bratrovrah a tvurce státu (Fratricide and country-
maker) that only a few coins confirm the existence of Biagota.

These coins are considered the oldest type of Premyslid denar. An inscription can be 
read on them, BIAGOTACOIIIIX or BIAGOTACOVIIX, meaning BIAGOTA CONIVNX: 
wife Biagota. Possibly these coins were made on the occasion of marriage, but there 
is no proof for it.

It is not even sure that Biagota was the mother of all four adult children of Boleslaus I 
(Dobrawa, Boleslaus II of Bohemia, Strachkvas and Mlada of Bohemia). Her origins 
are unclear. She could have originated from one of the German states of the Holy 
Roman Empire or from a Slavic country (Blahota or Bjegota was an old Bulgarian 
name). Both hypotheses could be right, corresponding to the contemporary practice of 
European rulers.
