David of Hungary

King Solomon with his brother David (Chronicon Pictum

David of Hungary (Hungarian: Dávid; between 1053 and 1055 – after 1094) was a member of the Árpád dynasty as the second son of Andrew I of Hungary and Anastasia of Kiev.

David's exact birth date is unknown. His elder brother,

Solomon was born in 1053 and the establishing charter of the abbey of Tihany (1055) clarifies that Andrew I has 'sons', thus David perhaps was born between the two dates.[1]

During the civil war between his father and

Álmos survived the king. David was buried in Tihany, next to his father.[3]
