Vladimir III of Kiev

Vladimir III Mstislavich (1132–1171), called Macheshich as the son of Mstislav the Great's second marriage, was a grandson of Vladimir Monomakh. A Volhynian prince, he held a string of Volhynian towns, and in 1150 married a daughter of the Serbian zupan Belos Vukanovic.

After Gleb of Kiev's death he occupied the Kievan throne in February 1171 but ruled only about three months, dying in May 1171; his short reign is omitted from some lists of Kievan princes.
