PRUSSIAN HEROES
FURS VON RYZEN - PRINCE OF RESIA
Bernard Klec Pilewski, researching old archives, probably British, made his notes under above title. The early and unexpected death of
this noted historian and genealogist did not let himfinish the history of the Pilewski family, whose ancestor was said to be the Prince of Resia.

Adam Mickiewicz to write
“Konrad Wallenrod”. After pacifing Pomezania, the peace treaty of 1249 was not activated,
with social structures of
the Pomezanians being crushed by separating the leadership elites and resettling them far from its social roots.

GLAPPO - THE PRUS LEADER OF WARMIAN PEOPLE
The Prusian forts and settlements were usually built on the highest hill in a given area.
Within a short distance, on the outside of every settlement, the Prusians planted specially selected bushes,
which were constantly fended. The reason for this special care was that neither horse or man could pass through
the thick growth. However the Prus settlements could not compete the brick built castles put up
by the Teutonic Knights.

DIVAN KLEKINE - BARTS´ COMMANDER
The Prusians, when choosing its leaders, did not necessarily select them from their nobility, families
which were privileged because
of their wealth. Often the basis for their choice were natural leadership qualities, backed by courage
and valour.Such a leader was
the chief of the Barts, about whom fairly little is known. We do know, however, that during a bear hunt
he was badly mauled by one,
and after this meeting he carried many scars.

THE SAMBIAN NOBLE GLANDE
The Knights of Teutonic Order, in spite of their forces numerical superiority, continued the conquest of
the Prus lands using many types of brutal and deceitful methods. Captured hostages were murdered or brutalised
without regardas to age or sex. Women were ravaged by knights of the black cross during wanton feasts and orgies,
for which the Order was already notorious during the wars with the world of Islam.
