Lis Coat Of Arms
Lis (Polish for "Fox") is a Polish coat of arms. It was used by many noble families of Clan Lis. The legend of the coat of arms In 1058 Duke Casimir I the Restorer while chasing the pagan Lithuanians and Yotvingians who devastated Polish lands, came to Sochaczew. He sent a knight of the Lis Clan (''Fox Clan'') to scout the region for enemies. When the knight came across a river he met a strong enemy unit. Unable to attack them alone, he decided immediately to shoot a lighted arrow into the air to call for reinforcements. Help arrived soon and defeated the enemies. A grateful Casimir granted the brave knight a new coat of arms with an arrow in the escutcheon and his former sign - the fox - was placed in the crest. Notable bearers Notable bearers of this coat of arms have included: *Krystyn z Kozichgłów *Jaksa z Targowiska *Mikołaj z Kozłowa *Ferdynand Antoni Ossendowski * Stanisław Chomętowski *Sapieha Family **Adam Stefan Sapieha ** Aleksander Michał Sapieha **Aleksand ...
