Sviatopolk II of Kiev

Sviatopolk II Iziaslavich (1050–1113), baptized Michael, was the son of Iziaslav I of Kiev by a concubine. He held Polotsk from 1069, ruled Novgorod in 1078–1088 and Turov from 1088, before succeeding to Kiev in 1093 after Vsevolod's death. His reign was dominated by rivalry and shifting alliances with his cousin Vladimir Monomakh.

The Cumans routed their armies at the Stugna River in 1093, but together they defeated the Cumans at the Salnytsia River in 1111. Sviatopolk encouraged the embellishment of St Michael's Abbey in Kiev and died on 16 April 1113.
