This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Andejons (talk | contribs) at 07:35, 17 July 2009 (referencing ahttp://en.wikin (old) paper which describes the mixup, remove the part of "objecting", as that will be hard to source: most historians doesn't take notice of Sune Sik as a prince anymore). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

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 lived in the late 13th century, which has caused some modern historians to view Olaus Petris account of him as unreliable. This Sune Sik made a donation to Vreta Abbey in 1297 and might have ordered a restauration of a chapel in which he was later interred, and cisternician tradition later seems to have turned him into a prince. Sune Sik, as a son of King Sverker, is still counted by some reliable Swedish historians as a possible person of history.

Jag har nämnt ovan, att cisterciensernas tradition tilldelat Sverker en son, Sune Sik, som icke rimligtvis kan vara historisk i denna egenskap. Jag har också antytt, att han antagligen fått sin prinsvärdighet genom missförstånd och vore att identifiera med en donator till klostret, som möter i ett diplom av 1297
