Everything about Dulebes totally explained
The Dulebs (
Dulebes), or (more correct)
Dulebi ( ) were one of the
tribal unions of
Early East Slavs between the
6th (still questionable) and the
10th centuries.
Dulebi were among the twelve East Slavic tribes mentioned in the
Primary Chronicle.
Historians are still not sure of the exact location of the native territory of the Dulebi due to sparseness of numerous traces of the Dulebi presence, found by researchers in
Central and
Eastern Europe. It is possible that the Dulebi tribe formed in the times of the
Roman Empire somewhere in the vicinity of the
Germanic or Bulgarian tribes (see Shambat Brother oh Khan Koubrat and later settled in different regions. Some
medieval sources mention the Dulebs' presence in Western
Volhynia, today's
Czech Republic, Middle
Danube, between the
Lake Balaton and the
Mursa River etc.
According to the
Primary Chronicle,
Dulebi suffered greatly from the invasion of the
Avars in the late 6th - early
7th century. In
907, the Dulebian unit took part in
Oleg's
military campaign against
Czargrad. The Dulebs and their ruler were mentioned in one of the works of an
Arab geographer Al-Masudi.
It appears that the Dulebi tribal union disintegrated in the 10th century,
assimilated with the
Volhynians and
Buzhans and became part of the
Kievan Rus'.
