It has plausibly been suggested that in the mid-1020s Cnut and Emperor Conrad II may have reached agreement about mutual spheres of interest; Cnut would be free to continue with the expansion of his northern empire, while Conrad would be free to pursue his quarrels with the Polish ruler. The subsequent pressures on Mieszko II led to the collapse of his regime. See Hoffman, E., ‘Die Salier und Skandinavien’, Auslandsbeziehungen unter den salischen Kaisern.

I know of no detailed onomastic discussion of Santslave's name. Some rudimentary searches have failed to produce any exact parallels for the name, but a couple of possibilities may be worth further exploration. The name Santslave might perhaps be derived from the Polish name Sędzislawa, recorded in the thirteenth century: see Taszycki, W., Najdawvniejsze polskie imiona osobowe, Rozprawy Wydzialu Filologicznego (Polska Akademja Umiejętności) 62, no. 3 (Cracow, 1926), 93.Google Scholar Taszycki cites only one example of the female form (Sadizlaue), but forms of the male equivalent, Sędzislaw, include Sandislauo, Sandislao, Sandislaus etc. Another possibility is that the name Santslave is a slighdy garbled version of the name Stanislawa, also first recorded in the thirteenth century (ibid. p. 97). See also the lists and indices of female personal names from all parts of the Slavonic-speaking world in Karpluk, M., Stowiańskie imiona kobiece, Prace onomastyczne 4 (Wroclaw, 1961).Google Scholar The matter warrants further attention by onomasts.

(Stuttgart, 1948), cols. 803–5.Google Scholar It has been argued by Wesenberg, ‘Eine frühe Darstellung’, that Heribert is represented in the ivory carving of eleventh-century date of an archbishop with a crozier of tau-cross form on the back cover of London, British Library, Harley 2889 (a lectionary from Siegburg). It can, however, be pointed out that in the Codex Thioderici, a lost Deutz manuscript of mid-twelfth-century date, Heribert was depicted with a staff of the traditional crook form. This manuscript was written by and in all likelihood illuminated under the close supervision of Thiodericus, the custos of the abbey of Deutz with specific responsibility for the ornaments and relics of the church: see Sinderhauf, M., Die Abtei Deutz und ihre innere Erneuerung.

^86. It would be no coincidence if gifts from Cnut do indeed survive from the Rhineland; it would reflect the much higher level of preservation of such objects in this area than in England. I am grateful to all those who have helped in the preparation of this paper, including Lesley Abrams, Klaus Gereon Beuckers, Richard Gameson, Joy Jenkyns and John Rhodes. Above all I would like to thank Simon Keynes for his invaluable editorial comments on a first draft of this paper.
