Ladislaus I (

Solomon as the lawful king in exchange for receiving their father's former duchy, which included one-third of the kingdom. They cooperated with Solomon for the next decade. Ladislaus's most popular legend, which narrates his fight with a "Cuman" (a Turkic
nomad marauder) who abducted a Hungarian girl, is connected to this period. The brothers' relationship with Solomon deteriorated in the early 1070s, and they rebelled against him. Géza was proclaimed king in 1074, but Solomon maintained control of the western regions of his kingdom. During Géza's reign, Ladislaus was his brother's most influential adviser.

Géza died in 1077, and his supporters made Ladislaus king. Solomon resisted Ladislaus with assistance from King

canonized the first Hungarian saints (including his distant relatives, King Stephen I and Duke Emeric
) in 1085. He set Solomon free during the canonization ceremony.

After a series of civil wars, Ladislaus's main focus was the restoration of public safety. He introduced severe legislation, punishing those who violated property rights with death or mutilation. He occupied almost all Croatia in 1091, which marked the beginning of an expansion period for the medieval Kingdom of Hungary. Ladislaus's victories over the Pechenegs and Cumans ensured the security of his kingdom's eastern borders for about 150 years. His relationship with the Holy See deteriorated during the last years of his reign, as the popes claimed that Croatia was their fief, but Ladislaus denied their claims.

Ladislaus was canonized on 27 June 1192 by Pope Celestine III. Legends depict him as a pious knight-king, "the incarnation of the late-medieval Hungarian ideal of chivalry."[1] He is a popular saint in Hungary and neighboring nations, where many churches are dedicated to him.

Early years (before 1064)

Ladislaus was the second son of the future King Béla I of Hungary and his wife, Richeza (or Adelaide), who was a daughter of King Mieszko II Lambert of Poland.[2][3] Ladislaus and his elder brother, Géza, were born in Poland, where Béla had settled in the 1030s after being banished from Hungary.[4][5] Ladislaus was born around 1040.[4] Ladislaus's "physical and spiritual makeup testified to God's gracious will even at his birth", according to his late-12th-century Legend.[6] The almost contemporaneous Gallus Anonymus wrote that Ladislaus was "raised from childhood in Poland" and almost became a "Pole in his ways and life".[5][7] He received a Slavic name: "Ladislaus" is derived from "Vladislav".[4]

Béla and his family returned to Hungary around 1048.

Solomon, "was anointed king with the consent of Duke Bela and his sons Geysa and Ladislaus"[11] in 1057 or 1058.[4]

Béla, who had been Andrew's heir before Solomon's coronation, left for Poland in 1059; his sons accompanied him.[4][12] They returned with Polish reinforcements and began a rebellion against Andrew.[8][13] After defeating Andrew, Béla was crowned king on 6 December 1060.[13] Solomon left the country, taking refuge in the Holy Roman Empire.[14][15] Béla I died on 11 September 1063, some time before German troops entered Hungary in order to restore Solomon.[12] Ladislaus and his brothers, Géza and Lampert, went back to Poland, and Solomon was once again crowned king in Székesfehérvár.[4][16] The three brothers returned when the Germans left Hungary.[17] To avoid another civil war, the brothers signed a treaty with Solomon on 20 January 1064,[17][18] acknowledging Solomon's reign in exchange for their father's duchy.[18][19]

Ladislaus and Géza probably divided the administration of their duchy; Ladislaus seems to have received the regions around

The Illuminated Chronicle claims that Ladislaus planned to "restore the kingdom" to Solomon and "himself have the dukedom",[41][42][40] but almost all contemporaneous sources contradict this report.[47] Ladislaus approached Pope Gregory VII, who was the primary opponent of Solomon's ally, Henry IV of Germany.[47] At the Pope's request, Ladislaus sheltered Bavarian nobles who had rebelled against Henry.[48][49] In 1078 or 1079, Ladislaus married Adelaide, a daughter of Rudolf of Rheinfelden, whom the German princes had elected to take the place of Henry IV as king.[48][49][50] Ladislaus supported Leopold II, Margrave of Austria, who also rebelled against Henry IV; however, the German monarch forced Leopold to surrender in May 1078.[51]

Taking advantage of the internal conflicts in the Holy Roman Empire, Ladislaus besieged and captured the fortress of Moson from Solomon in early 1079.[50][52] However, Henry IV stormed the western regions of Hungary, and secured Solomon's position.[52] The German invasion also prevented Ladislaus from assisting Boleslaus the Bold, who fled to Hungary after his subjects expelled him from Poland.[53] Ladislaus initiated negotiations with Solomon, who abdicated in 1080 or 1081 in exchange for "revenues sufficient to bear the expenses of a king".[45][50][52][54] However, Solomon soon began conspiring against Ladislaus, and Ladislaus imprisoned him.[42][52]

The first five Hungarian saints, including the first king of Hungary,

Benedictine monastery – Szentjobb Abbey – to Stephen's right arm, known as the "Holy Dexter", which was miraculously found intact.[45] Ladislaus released Solomon at the time of the ceremony;[45] legend said that Stephen's grave could not be opened until he did so.[48]

[The] Lord, in order to show how merciful [King Stephen I] had been while living in a mortal body, demonstrated his approval of [Stephen's revelation as a saint] before all other works when [the king] was already reigning with Christ to the point that though for three days they struggled with all their might to raise his holy body, it was not by any means to be moved from its place. For in that time, because of the sins, a grave discord arose between the said king Ladislas and his cousin Solomon, because of which, Solomon, captured, was held in prison. Therefore when they tried in vain to raise the body, a certain recluse at the church of the Holy Savior in Bökénysomlyó, by the name of Karitas, whose famous life at the time was held in esteem, confided to the king by a revelation made to her from heaven that they exerted themselves in vain; it would be impossible to transfer the relics of the holy king until unconditional pardon was offered to Solomon, setting him free from the confinement of prison. And thus, bringing him forth from the prison, and repeating the three-day fast, when the third day arrived for the transferal of the holy remains, the stone lying over the grave was lifted up with such ease as if it had been of no weight before.

Expansion (1085–1092)

In August 1087, German princes who opposed Henry IV's rule held a conference in

Bernold of St Blasien mentions that Ladislaus sent envoys to the meeting, and "promised that he would assist [them] with 20,000 knights, if it became necessary".[61][62] Ladislaus also recognized Pope Victor III as the legitimate pope, rather than Clement III, who had been elected pope at Henry IV's initiative.[62] However, Ladislaus provided no further support to Henry IV's opponents after he was informed of Solomon's death in 1087.[63]

Ladislaus admitted in his letter to Oderizius that he could not "promote the cause of earthly dignities without committing grave sins".[72] Historian Bálint Hóman says that Ladislaus was referring to a developing conflict with Pope Urban II, who objected to Ladislaus's refusal to acknowledge the Holy See's suzerainty over Croatia.[72][73][74][75] In the letter, Ladislaus styled himself as "king of the Hungarians and of Messia".[63][76][77] Historian Ferenc Makk writes that the latter title referred to Moesia, implying that Ladislaus had taken the regions between the Great Morava and Drina rivers from the Byzantine Empire.[63] No other documents refer to Ladislaus's occupation of Moesia, suggesting that if Ladislaus did occupy the region, he lost it quickly.[76] Alexandru Madgearu says that "Messia" should rather be associated with Bosnia, which was occupied during Ladislaus's campaign against Croatia.[77]

Ladislaus intervened in a conflict between

The Illuminated Chronicle states that "messengers from

Consolidation of the Christian monarchy

For centuries, hagiographers and historians have emphasized Ladislaus's prominent role in the consolidation of the Christian monarchy.[108] The chronicles also stressed his idoneitas, or personal suitability, to reign, because the legitimacy of his rule was questionable.[108] The Illuminated Chronicle clearly states that Ladislaus knew that "the right of law between him and [Solomon] was not on his side but only the force of fact".[54][108]

After Ladislaus's victories over the Pechenegs and the Cumans, the nomadic peoples of the Pontic steppes stopped invading Hungary until the Mongol invasion of 1241.[109] Kristó suggests that the Székely people—a community of Hungarian-speaking warriors—started settling the easternmost borderlands under Ladislaus.[59][110] The "historic association of the Kingdom of Hungary and Croatia", which ended in 1918, began with Ladislaus's conquest of Croatia.[55] His conquest marked the beginning of a period of Hungarian expansion, which ensured that Hungary developed into a leading Central European power during the following centuries.[109] It became a customary rite for a newly crowned Hungarian king to make a pilgrimage to Ladislaus's shrine at Várad.[37] Louis I of Hungary, who made many attempts to expand his territory in the Balkan Peninsula, showed a special respect for Ladislaus.[111]

Gábor Klaniczay emphasizes that Ladislaus "seemed expressly designed to personify the knight-king ideal" of his age.

Coloman the Learned, Bishop Hartvik said that Ladislaus's "character was distinguished by the respectability of morals and remarkable for the splendor of his virtues".[81][112] The so-called Gesta Ladislai regis ("The Deeds of King Ladislaus"), which are the texts about Ladislaus's life and reign preserved in 14th-century Hungarian chronicles, were written during Coloman's rule.[108] Five significant events of Ladislaus's life, which were not included in his official legend, were only preserved in the Gesta.[22]

The most popular story describes Ladislaus's fight with a "

Chiraleș, Romania) in 1068.[113][114] In the battle, the united armies of Solomon, Géza and Ladislaus routed a band of Pechenegs or Oghuz Turks who were plundering the eastern parts of the kingdom.[4][115] According to the version recorded in the Illuminated Chronicle, Ladislaus spotted a pagan warrior fleeing from the battlefield with a captive Hungarian maiden.[114] Ladislaus pursued the "Cuman", but he could not stop him.[116] On Ladislaus's advice, the maiden pulled the warrior off his horse, allowing Ladislaus to kill the "Cuman" after a long fight on the ground.[116][117] Archaeologist Gyula László says that murals depicting this legend in medieval churches preserved the elements of pagan myths, including a "struggle between forces of light and darkness".[114][118]

During the reign of Stephen II of Hungary, Ladislaus's shrine in the cathedral of Várad became a preferred venue for trials by ordeal.[120] However, it cannot be determined whether Ladislaus became subject to veneration soon after his death, or if his cult emerged after he was canonized by Béla III of Hungary on 27 June 1192.[121] Béla had lived in the Byzantine court, where Ladislaus's daughter, Irene, was venerated as a saint.[122]

miracles to him.[127] According to one of his legends, a pestilence spread throughout the kingdom during Ladislaus's reign. Ladislaus prayed for a cure; he then shot an arrow into the air at random, hitting a herb which cured the illness.[127] This plant became known as "Saint Ladislaus's herb" in Hungary.[127]

Ladislaus is a patron saint of Hungary, especially along the borders.[127][128] In particular, soldiers and the Székely people venerate him.[120] A late medieval legend says that Ladislaus appeared at the head of a Székely army fighting against and routing a plundering band of Tatars in 1345.[120] He is also called upon during times of pestilence.[127] He is often depicted as a mature, bearded man wearing a royal crown and holding a long sword or banner.[127] He is also shown on his knees before a deer, or in the company of two angels.[127]

King Sigismund of Hungary died on 1437, and as ordered in life, he was buried at Várad (now Oradea), next to the tomb of the King Saint Ladislaus, who was the ideal of the perfect monarch, warrior and Christian for that time and was deeply venerated by Sigismund.[129]

Herma of King Saint Ladislaus and Genetics

Herm of King Saint Ladislaus (15th century) containing his skull, held in the Cathedral Basilica of Győr

The skull relic in the Saint Ladislaus’ Herma preserved in the Cathedral Basilica of Győr, is one of the most important relics for Hungarians.[130]

King Saint Ladislaus of Hungary completed the work of King Saint Stephen of Hungary, he consolidated the Hungarian state power and strengthened the Christianity. His charismatic personality, strategic leadership and military talents resulted the termination of internal power struggles and foreign military threats. He was seen as the embodiment of the knight-king ideal to be emulated all over Europe. He was canonized in 1192 at the request of King Béla III of Hungary, and his body was exhumed to prepare relics from his skull and other skeletal remains as was the custom in that medieval times.[130]

According to historian György Szabados, Gyula László proved already in 1965 that the face of the Saint Ladislaus’ Herma depicts King Béla III. The skull reconstruction of the Royal Basilica's tomb find in Székesfehérvár also shows the face of the Herma, which is not surprising, because King Ladislaus had already been dead for 97 years in 1192, so only the then living king from the same family, Béla III was worthy to sit as a model for the creation of the face of the Herma.[131]

The wooden herm containing the skull was damaged in a fire in 1406, but miraculously the skull has been preserved unharmed. Later it was placed into the current Herma created during the reign of King Sigismund of Hungary. In the 16th century, the relic had to be rescued from Várad due to the ravage of Transylvania by the protestants. In the first decades of the 17th century, it reached its current location in the Cathedral of Győr after passing through Prague, Pozsony (now Bratislava) and Veszprém.[130]

The turbulent history events of the Herma raised doubts concerning the authenticity of the relic by historians and archaeologists.[130] At that time, the only Árpád dynasty king, the remains of King Béla III had known and identified, because little earlier, the Institute of Hungarian Research determinated the whole genome data of King Béla III which was published in 2020.[132] Thus the Hungarian scholars were able to compare the paternal Y chromosome sequence of the skull to that of King Béla III from whom a whole genome data was available.[130]

On 4 June 2021, Endre Neparáczki collected a sample from the skull of the herm, during his researches so far, they isolated from the sample one of the best own extracted endogenous DNA.[133] The Institute of Hungarian Research defined the genetic composition of the skull found in the herm and it was published in 2023. The result supported the originality of Saint Ladislaus relic, the Y chromosome of the skull belongs to the exclusive haplogroup of the Árpád-dynasty R-ARP (R1a1a1b2a2a1c3a3b) and the kinship analysis detected the skull is at five generations distance from King Béla III.[130][133]

The R-ARP sub-haplogroup belongs to the R-Z2123 clade, the phylogenetic analysis suggested a Bronze Age BMAC origin of the R-Z2123 sub-haplogroup which belongs to the R-Z2125 clade, which was detected in individuals from the Middle-Late Bronze Age on the Caspian Steppe, connected to the Potapovka, Sintashta and Andronovo cultures. In the Iron Age, this haplogroup was detected in the Turan basin and in Scytho-Siberians of the Minusinsk Basin, later among the Asian Huns (Xiongnus) and up until the Middle Ages in Mongolia which indicates an eastward and southward spread of the haplogroup. The first appearance of R-Z2125 in the Carpathian Basin was detected in 5th-century European Huns, and 7th–8th-century Avars, but it also arrived with the conquering Hungarians, in the 9th–10th century including Árpád and his family.[130] The basic premise of the Hungarian medieval chronicle tradition (for example in the Chronicon Pictum) that the Huns, i.e. the Hungarians coming out twice from Scythia, the guiding principle was the Hun-Hungarian continuity.[134] The genomic analyses of the Hungarian royal Árpád family members are in line with the reported conquering Hungarian-Hun origin of the dynasty in harmony with their Y-chromosomal phylogenetic connections.[130]

The Institute of Hungarian Research published a genetic study in 2022 in which 113 Hungarian conqueror samples were analized.[135] The result of the genome analysis of King Saint Ladislaus confirmed that the Árpád dynasty originated from the same ethnic group as other members of the Hungarian conqueror elite, and he had higher genetic affinity to the Hungarian conquerors than the analyzed later Hungarian royal members. King Saint Ladislaus had more Eastern genomic heritage than his later relatives, on the PCA genetic map he shifted slightly eastward from the cloud of modern European populations, while the genome of King Béla III was projected near modern Hungarians and Croatians, because the Central Asian genomes were progressively attenuated during the centuries through dynastic marriages with European royal families.[130][133]

Saint Ladislaus became the first saint in the world whose identity was confirmed by archaeogenetic tests.[133]
