  Jadwiga of Poland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The masculine gender in her title was intended to underline the fact that she was a monarch in her own right, not a queen consort.
Emperor Sigismund himself was a heir of Casimir III, as eldest son of his mother Elisabeth of Pomerania, who was since 1377 the only surviving child of Elisabeth of Poland, herself the younger but only progenited daughter of Casimir III from his first marriage with Gediminaitis Aldona of Lithuania.
The family possession of the principality of Kujavia belonged to Sigismund, who was the heir with the strongest hereditary claims.

Two years after the king’s accession in 1654, Oxenstierna was sent to represent Sweden at the Kreistag of Lower Saxony.
In 1655 he accompanied Charles to Poland and was made governor of the conquered provinces of Kulm, Kujavia, Masovia and Great Poland.
The firmness and humanity which he displayed in this new capacity won the affectionate gratitude of the inhabitants, and induced the German portion of them, notably the city of Thorn, to side with the Swedes against the Poles.

 Read about Jadwiga of Poland at WorldVillage Encyclopedia. Research Jadwiga of Poland and learn about Jadwiga of Poland ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-15)
As child monarch of Poland, Jadwiga had at least one relative in Poland (all her immediate family remained in Hungary): her mother's uncle Vladislav of Kujavia, died 1388, Prince of of Gniewkowo.
Kujavia belonged to Sigismund, who obviously was the heir with strongest hereditary claims, but, of course, the leaders of the country wanted to avoid Sigismund and any personal union with Hungary.
Jadwiga's husband Vladislav Jagello kept her kingdom, and mostly because of no claimant with clearly better stature appeared, he was never ousted, not even after the death of his second wife.

Convergent are not only the general tendencies of the development, but also many of the single designs which often are faithful copies of the patterns of the region of Kujavia and Great Po­land.
The presence of string ornamen­ta­tion and the changes in the morpho­logy of vessels in Phase 4 lead to the formation of the local variant of the Luboń style.
New forms of vessels indicate clearly the emergence of influences coming from the sphere of the Iwno culture, from the region of Kujavia, along the Vistula River trail.

 samogitian_crusade
Later, the Polish kingdom was divided among the feuding brothers, so that the country would be more accurately described as a collection of duchies: Masovia, Kujavia, Great Poland, Sandomir, Little Poland, and several in Silesia.
With the dukes fighting for control of the capital, Cracow, and the crown, the Prussians were able to enrich themselves at the expense of the Poles living in northern Masovia and Kujavia.
As a consequence, it was not difficult for Polish churchmen to persuade Pope Honorius III to summon Christians to join their holy war against the Prussians.

 assemblage 4 -- The Significance of Monuments (review)
And it is here that some doubts arise, for it is so easy to be swept along with Bradley's prose that at times we can forget just how far we have travelled and how many monuments we have enthusiastically visited with him.
For example, in Kujavia the symbolic associations and transformations between long mounds and long houses are clear (Chapter 3, 'The death of the house') and his sensitive discussion of the transformations in the context of enclosures across Europe is stimulating (Chapter 5, 'Small worlds').
However, this agency feels a little disembodied and contextless, and it is also notable that, although a number of comments about the potentials of places to draw distinctions between people are made in this text, we hear little of gender or power.

Cattle as well as houses had the potential to bring a world into being and continually reproduced human relations in and with that world.
The historical trajectory of the Kujavia region caused cattle and longhouse to became a „cultural object” incorporating an „extended” form of signification (Giddens 1987:100) and a means for creation of identity of early farmers.
This early phase was later replaced by the period of stabilization when the common identity was set up and configuration of previously mobilized and further recontextualised resources provided conceptual means for these groups.

homogenous and delimited region of Kujavia, which is regarded as a very prospective area for complex studies of prehistory of Lowland Poland.
Attention is focused on chronologically broad processes from middle Stone Age to the beginning of the Middle Ages.
It is worth mentioning the following: the recognition of the Kujavia enclave of Danubian early Bronze Age civilization, the reconstruction of the structure of the amber route, the genesis of the amber and glass manufactures, as well as, the discovery of numerous sacred sites.

These settlers made their homes in areas such as Little Poland (Małopolska), Silesia, Kujavia, as well as in the districts of Chełmno and Pyrzyce, where the land was rich in fertile loess and fl soils.
Some time later they also penetrated into Greater Poland, probably via Kujavia and Silesia.
Although numerous traces pointing to the presence of these early farming communities have been found in the Greater Poland region, the first evidence of permanent settlement dates from the mid 5th millennium BC.

 Casimir III
Casimir III, called The Great, King of Poland, the son of Wladislaus Lokietek, king of Poland, and Jadwiga, princess of Kalisch, was born at Kowal in Kujavia in 1310.
Casimir belongs to that remarkable group of late medieval sovereigns who may be called the fathers of modern diplomacy, inasmuch as they relegated warfare to its proper place as the instrument of politics, and preferred the council-chamber to the battle-field.
