Ingvar, also called Igor, grand prince of Kiev and presumably the son of Rurik, prince of Novogorod, who is considered the founder of the dynasty that ruled Kievan Rus and Muscovy until 1598. Igor, successor to the great warrior and diplomat Oleg, assumed the throne of Kiev.
Described as a greedy, rapacious, and unsavory prince by the 12th-century Russian Primary Chronicle, Igor in 913-914 led an assault into Transcaucasia that ended in defeat for his forces. He also conducted two expeditions against Byzantium (941 and 944), but many of his ships were destroyed by the "Greek fire," and the treaty that he finally concluded in 944 was less advantageous to Kiev than one obtained by Oleg in 911. Igor did manage to extend the authority of Kiev over the Pechenegs, a Turkic people inhabiting the steppes north of the Black Sea, as well as over the East Slavic tribe of Drevlyane. When he went to Dereva (the land of the Drevlyane located in the region of the Pripyat River) to collect tribute (945), however, his attempt to extort more than the customary amount provoked the Drevlyane into rebelling and killing him.
