Choscisko (Polish pronunciation: [x??'t?isk?]) is a legendary figure in a Polish prehistory, father of Piast the Wheelwright, the founder of the Piast dynasty. His name occurs in the first Polish chronicle, Cronicae et gesta ducum sive principum Polonorum[1] by Gallus Anonymus, where the author refers three times to Piast as the son of Choscisko.
Choscisko's name is probably derived from Old Slavonic chost or chwost meaning tail.
