Znetalici
Znetalici (Czech: Snětaliči) was a Slavic tribe mentioned by the 9th-century Bavarian Geographer. They are mentioned as inhabiting 74 civitates (settlements).[1]
While some scholars put them somewhere in Russia,[2] between the Carpathians and the Danube,[2][3] or in Kiev.[4] the majority located them in Bohemia and near Lusatia.[2][3][5] They are etymologically related to toponym Netolice in Bohemia, and Serbo-Lusatian tribe of Neletici or Netelici. Mikołaj Rudnicki considered it of patronymic origin with suffix *-ici, deriving it from *Snetal ("big trunk"), which has survived as surnames Snětal, Snětalová in Czech Republic and Śniatała in Poland.[6]
