Abstract
While Kievan and Suzdalian annals attest that interethnic marriages between Rus’ princes and women of the steppe and the Horde occurred regularly and were accepted by the Rus’ church and society, Muscovite churchmen wrote idealized narratives of converted Tatars, which legitimized the contemporary annexation of eastern lands and subsequent large-scale conversion in their time and were incorporated into commemoration books and family genealogical records.
