Erdvilas
Duke of Lithuania in 1219
Erdvilas was one of the 21 early dukes of Lithuania who signed a treaty with Galicia-Volhynia in 1219. He and Vykintas are the two dukes of Samogitia mentioned in the treaty.
Erdvilas is read about 3 times a day, in 10 languages.
A typical day, 30 days to 19 June 2026
The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
Something wrong?About this person
This is supported by the fact that the eastern part of Samogitia supported King of Lithuania Mindaugas, while the western part, ruled by Vykintas, was more hostile. That is the only mention of him in written sources. Few historians consider that Treniota, Mindaugas' nephew, was son of Erdvilas. However more prefer Vykintas as Treniota's father.
