Abstract
The research note briefly presents the context of the description of the Battle of Durbe in 1260 in sources, focusing on the Livonian and Prussian traditions in representing the battle. The author specifically compares the description in the late 13th-century Livonian Rhymed Chronicle with the description by Peter of Dusburg, which shaped the Prussian tradition in the first half of the 14th century.
