===First marriage=== [[Zbyslava of Kiev]] (c. 1085/90 – c. 1114<ref>A wide scientific discussion over the death of Zbyslava was presented in the work of K. Kollinger. See K. Kollinger: [http://www.history.org.ua/JournALL/ruthenica/7/3.pdf ''The problem of food in 1109, Zbyslava's death and the Polish-Kievan alliance in 1102–1114, pp. 42–46'' (in Polish)] [retrieved 13 September 2009].</ref>), his first wife, was a member of the [[Rurikid dynasty]]. She was the daughter of Grand Prince [[Sviatopolk II of Kiev]]. The marriage was probably concluded in 1103<ref>O. Balzer: ''Genealogia Piastów'', p. 121; K. Jasiński: ''Rodowód pierwszych Piastów'', p. 189.</ref> in order to obtain future military help from Kiev in the fight against Zbigniew. This union also notoriously limited the attacks of the princes of Galicia and [[Principality of Terebovlia|Terebovlia]] against Poland. Until Zbyslava's death, relations between Poland and the [[Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia|Principality of Galicia–Volhynia]] remained friendly.<ref>K. Maleczyński: ''Bolesław III Krzywousty'', p. 312.</ref> The children born from this marriage were: # [[Władysław II the Exile]] (1105 – 30 May 1159), the only son of Bolesław and Zbyslava, was Prince of [[Kraków]], [[Dukes of Silesia|Silesia]], [[Sandomierz]], eastern [[Greater Poland]], [[Kuyavia]], [[Western Pomerania]] and [[Gdańsk Pomerania]] (1138–46).<ref>P. Jasienica: ''Polska Piastów'', p. 127; A. Marzec: ''Bolesław III Krzywousty'', [in:] S. Szczur, K. Ożóg (ed.), ''Piastowie. Leksykon biograficzny'', p. 84; S. Szczur: ''Historia Polski – średniowiecze'', p. 132.</ref> Gallus Anonymous wrote that the heir of the Polish throne was born in the winter of 1107–08, but omitted the gender and name of the child. The ''Rocznik świętokrzyski'' and ''Rocznik kapitulny'' recorded Władysław's birth in 1105.<ref>K. Maleczyński: ''Bolesław III Krzywousty'', p. 314.</ref><ref>K. Jasiński: ''Rodowód Piastów śląskich'', cap. I, pp. 57–58.</ref> # A daughter [Judith?]<ref>According to ''Latopis hipacki'' (the only reliable early source who mentioned her), doesn't give her name. In older literature, however, was assumed that her name was Judith, for example J. Żylińska: '' Piastówny i żony Piastów''. pp. 99, 113. M. Spórna and P. Wierzbicki, however, confirmed the existence of this daughter but her name is unknown; see M. Spórna and P. Wierzbicki: ''Słownik władców Polski i pretendentów do tronu polskiego'', pp. 501–502.</ref> (c. 1112 – after 1124), married in 1124 to Vsevolod Davidovich, Prince of [[Murom]]. Her filiation is doubtful, because Russian chronicles only noted that Vsevolod's wife came from Poland;<ref>''Полное собранiе русскихъ лѣтописей'', vol. 2: ''Ипатiевская лѣтопись'', p. 10.</ref><ref>K. Jasiński: ''Rodowód pierwszych Piastów'', p. 207.</ref> she could be either Bolesław and Zbyslava's daughter or a member of the [[Abdank coat of arms|Awdaniec family]] as daughter of [[Skarbimir]].<ref>This hypothesis was formulated by J. Bieniak and supported by K. Jasiński. K. Jasiński: ''Rodowód pierwszych Piastów'', p. 207.</ref> Older historiography referred to an unnamed second son born from the marriage of Bolesław and Zbyslava. Gallus Anonymous wrote that this son was born around 1107–08.<ref>Gallus Anonymus: ''Cronicae et gesta ducum sive principum Polonorum'', vol. II, cap. 40, p. 108.</ref> According to Oswald Balzer, he died shortly after birth.<ref>O. Balzer: ''Genealogia Piastów'', pp. 135–136.</ref> However, Karol Maleczyński believed that he never existed, noting that the sources who provided the year of 1105 as Władysław II's date of birth (''Rocznik świętokrzyski'' and ''Rocznik kapitulny'') were probably mistaken.<ref name="Maleczyński, pp. 315–316">K. Maleczyński: ''Bolesław III Krzywousty'', pp. 315–316.</ref>
