Talk:Mikuláš of Hus

Untitled
I am not sure if this article is factually correct, since the leader of Husseite movement was called Jan Hus. Therefore : Deletion yes/no ? Travelbird 00:42, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Incorrect, Mikulas of Hus was the Lord of Husinec, the place where Jan Hus was born, and took his name from. Mikulas (Nicholas) later became a leader of the Taborites in the Hussite Wars after Jan Hus had been burned at Konstanz. --69.17.67.11 18:45, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

It would be nice to see more information - Macek states that Mikuláš died "unexpectedly", and then Jan Žižka took the position of first captain of the Taborites. Given the preceding statements that there was already internal strife between the two on various points, it leads me to wonder whether 'unexpectedly' is a euphemism, here...

As for merging the article with Jan Hus, that would seem the wrong place. At worst the information might find use in Hussite Wars if there's not sufficient to fill this one out.
