Footnotes
[edit]- ^ The chronicles do not give her name but historians generally agree that she was called Agafia; it has also been suggested that Agafia was her monastic name, but this is unlikely as she died with members of her family in the Cathedral of the Assumption to which the Tatars set fire while storming Vladimir (Dimnik, Martin op. cit. 268.)
