About this person
The two pretenders, who were brothers, half-brothers, or uncle and nephew, may never have controlled much more than the province of Östergötland, which was the base of the dynasty. Burislev is believed either to have been murdered by King Canute's men, or to have fled to Poland in or before 1173.
