• Notes

  Aribert I (Orithbert I; died in 724) - King (Grand Duke) of the Obodrite Union (700-724). Biography[edit | edit code] Aribert I was the son of Wisław, after whose death he allegedly took the throne. Thus, he ruled between 700 and 724. Perhaps after his death, one of his unknown brothers ruled for some time. The name Oritbert, as I assumed. F. Chemnitz, of Lombard origin. This is quite likely, since the mother of Aribert I is called the unknown daughter of the Lombard king in historical sources. It is noted that by the time of the wedding in 1716 of Duke Charles Leopold of Mecklenburg and Russian Princess Catherine, Vice-Rector of the Gymnasium Friedrich Thomas had compiled the so-called "Mecklenburg Genealogies", which show that the dynasties of both newlyweds dated to Aribert I.
