COLLINS' (some small scattered patches of pitting to blade, etching feint, grips worn), in original leather-covered scabbard with gilt border (chape missing, scabbard worn), with brown leather frog. Other Notes: The legend of Mazeppa originates from Poland and Russia. Mazeppa was born to a Polish noble family in Podolia. He became a page at the court of Jan Casimir, the King of Poland, but was caught with the wife of a count and as a punishment was lashed to a wild horse and turned loose. The horse died in the Ukraine where Mazeppa was rescued by a Cossack family who nursed him back to health. He became secretary to the Cossack hetman at the Russian Court, and at his death was appointed his successor. Czar Peter I made him Prince of the Ukraine, but in the subsequent war with Sweden Mazeppa deserted to Charles XII. After the defeat at Pultowa in 1709 Mazeppa fled to Valentia and then onto Bender. It is not known if he died of natural causes or was killed on the Czar's orders.
