Malfrida or Malfrid is the name of a woman who died in 1000 according to the Primary Chronicle (PVL).[1]
Russian historian Vasily Tatishchev believe that Malfrida was a Bohemian wife of Vladimir I of Kiev.[citation needed] Other historians believe that Malfrida was identical to Malusha.[citation needed]
