	Herbarz Polski (J)
		Dlugosz explicitly writes, first, that he was not struck with three lances, but was slashed with many wounds, and then adds that from this time the arms "Koilerogi" [= goat horns] (as they had been called before) received from Szaryusz the new name "Jelita," and there is no mention of a change in the arms.
		It is evident, then, that these arms, as the Jelita clan uses them now, are more ancient than that battle.
		So this is a very old coat of arms, and evidently highly regarded for its bearers even during the days of the pagan monarchs in Poland; but from what it originated is hard to guess, in view of its antiquity.
