Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2014, Vol 20, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper refers to the Kamieniecki Family and its relations with Moldova in 15th and 16th century. This family owed their careers and social advancements to the immersion in Polish policy towards Moldova. First of all it supported Jagiellons in their southeast political encounters, especially through the brothers Mikolaj, Jan and Marcin of Kamieniec, who played a huge role in Polish-Moldovan relations. They had military ranks and responsibili-ties, such as Mikolaj Kamieniecki who was one of the first Polish Great Commander (i.e. vicecampiductor – Vice-Hetman), fighting against Bogdan III – ruler of Moldova - in 1506 and 1509. He also took part in Polish-Moldovan conferences on political future of Pokutia. Due to its political engagement, the Kamieniecki became one of the richest and influential families in 15th and 16th century in Poland.
