The chronicles of medieval Rus' published in the series PSRL l have served as the chief materials for the reconstruction of the events of the first half of the thirteenth century. [...] For the period of the first half of the thirteenth century it is much the same as the "older redaction/'5 When quoting from the Novgorod First Chronicle in this work two references are usually given: the first reference is to the Sinodal'nyy spisok and the second is to the Komissionnyy spisok. [...] Although it was not possible to consult the sinodiki, Archbishop Filaret of Chernigov and R. V. Zotov used them extensively and in the instance of the Lyubetskiy sinodik reproduced the list of princes in it in its entirety.34 They compared the lists of the princes of Chernigov found in the sinodiki with the names of the princes recorded in the chronicles. [...] This lack of interest in his political significance is surprising, for, by the time of the Tatar invasion, Mikhail had succeeded in establishing the authority of the Ol'govichi over southern and southwest Rus1 and making them the most powerful family of princes in all Rus\ The failure of historians to evaluate the significance of the princes of Chernigov in the first half of the thirteenth century [...] Some of the families of princes descended from Mikhail which still existed in the nineteenth century were "the Boryatinskie, the Gorshakovie, the Dolgorukie, the Eletskie, the Zvenigorodskie, the Kortsovy-Mosal'skie, the Obolenskie, the Odoevskie and the Shcherbatovie" (Filaret, archbishop of Chernigov, Russkie svyatye, third edition, vol; 3 [Saint Petersburg, 1882], p. 101).
