re: herma in Polish edit

The silver-gilt object illustrated is called in English a reliquary bust. Searching reliquary bust at Wikipedia will bring up many examples. OED does not give this as an alternative use for herm, herma: the ordinary usage is at Herma.

I don't want to tread on Polish sensibilities by changing the caption without explaining first. But it's a confusing usage for the English-language reader. Any issues?--Wetman (talk) 08:58, 18 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Daughter married Leudesius? edit

The article says that Sigismund's daughter married Leudesius, but this seems to me like a huge anachronism. If Sigismund died in 524, and Leudesius in 676, then the daughter of Sigismund would have almost certainly been too old to have children by the time Leudesius was born. I've placed a "dubious" tag on it linking to this section, but it really should be removed unless it can be backed up. Someone the Person (talk) 19:31, 10 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

This information comes from an abscure chronicle and once something spurious gets cited it keeps on getting cited, alas. I deleted this info from both the Leudesius article and this one. Harachte (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:31, 27 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Why was he considered a saint? edit

Nothing in the article on his live gives any clues as to why he was made a saint, only reasons why not (like the killing of his son). Somebody much have info on why this sainthood was bestowed upon him? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Codiv (talkcontribs) 10:29, 13 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
