Dalimil's Chronicle

The Chronicle of Dalimil (Czech: Dalimilova kronika; Kronika tak řečeného Dalimila) is the first chronicle written in the Czech language. It was composed in verse by an unknown author at the beginning of the 14th century. The Chronicle compiles information from older Czech chronicles written in Latin and also the author's own experiences. The chronicle finishes before 1314, but it is usually published including the entries of later authors describing events up to 1319.

The Chronicle alleged that the Slavs originated in the south, the country of Serbs and Croats. It stated that "in the Serbian nation there is a land, known as Croatia; in this country there was a chieftain whose name was Czech."

The Dalimil was translated three times into Middle High German (including the recently identified translation by Merbort), and once into Latin.
