About Boyan

Boyan is the name of a bard mentioned in the Rus' epic The Lay of Igor's Campaign as being active at the court of Yaroslav the Wise. He is apostrophized as Volos's grandson in the opening lines of The Lay. Historians have been unable to determine whether Boyan was his proper name or if all skalds of Rus were called boyans.
