Revision as of 20:33, 17 July 2009
Sune Sik Sverkersson, (born c. 1154), in older historical accounts, was a Swedish prince. According to Olaus Petri, he would have been a younger son of King Sverker I of Sweden and father of Ingrid Ylva.
In surviving medieval documents, the only Sune Sik that can be found[citation needed] looks like he lived much later, which has caused some historians to view Olaus Petri's account of him as unreliable. That Sune Sik made a donation to Vreta Abbey as late as in 1297. He might have ordered a restauration of a chapel in which he eventually was interred, and later Cistercian tradition may then have turned him into a prince.[1]
Sune Sik, as a son of King Sverker, is still counted by some reliable Swedish historians as a possible person of history.[2]
