The Silesian tribes ((ポーランド語:plemiona śląskie)) is a term used to refer to tribes, or groups of West Slavs〔"''Borderlands of Language in Europe''" – Vaughan Cornish, Sifton, Praed, 1936; "''Annales Silesiae''" – Wrocławskie Towarzystwo Naukowe; PWN 2003; "''The Dynamics of the Policies of Ethnic Cleansing in Silesia in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries''" – Tomasz Kamusella 1999 (); "''Historia Śląska''" – Wydawnictwo Śląskie ABC (); "''Śląsk w czasach słowiańskich''" na podstawie prac Marka Szołtyska (); "''Fale Migracyjne w historii Śląska''" – Ruch Autonomii Śląska, 2003〕 that lived in the territories of Silesia in the Early Middle Ages. The territory they lived on became part of Great Moravia in 875 (now mostly in the Czech Republic) and later, in 990, the first Polish state created by duke Mieszko I and then expanded by king Boleslaw I at the beginning of the 11th century. They are usually treated as part of the Polish tribes〔Jerzy Strzelczyk () ''The New Cambridge Medieval History'', Cambridge University Press, 1999, p. 521-522 ISBN 0-521-36447-7 (Google Books ); Robert Machray, ''The Problem of Upper Silesia'', G. Allen & Unwin ltd. 1945, p. 13 (Google Books ); Paul Wagret, Helga S. B. Harrison, ''Poland'', Nagel, 1964, p. 231. (Google Books )〕 and sometimes as part of the Germanic tribes.〔"''Coming Home to Germany?''" – David Rock, Stefan Wolff; 2002, ISBN 1-57181-729-8 p. 200 (Google Books ))〕 Two tribes among them are sometimes considered as Czech (Moravian) tribes.〔("''Czeski Śląsk''" – Montes Tarnovicensis, 05/2008 )〕 ==History== Before and during the migration period the territory of south west Poland - Silesia - was inhabited by various peoples. It included Celts and probably some Germanic tribes - among them - the Silingi. Tacitus in his description of Magna Germania mentions Suevi: Marsigni, Osi, Gothini, Burii in what later became Silesia and Burgundiones and Lygii at the Vistula.〔(A System of Ancient and Mediaeval Geography ), Magna Germania P 216〕 However, during the migration period, those peoples had moved west and vacated territories in Central Europe. Lands in the basins of Odra and Wisła were then taken by Polish tribes who repopulated these abandoned areas and created their own tribal organizations. The Silesian tribes, together with the Polans, Masovians, Vistulans and Pomeranians were the most important Polish tribes.〔Raymond Breton, ''National Survival in Dependent Societies: Social Change in Canada and Poland'', McGill-Queen's Press – MQUP, 1990, p. 106, ISBN 0-88629-127-5 (Google Books ); Charles William Previté-Orton, ''The Shorter Cambridge Medieval History'', Cambridge: Cambridge University Press 1962, V. II, p. 744, ISBN 0-521-09976-5 (Google Books )〕 These five tribes "shared fundamentally common culture and language and were considerably more closely related to one another than were the Germanic tribes."〔John Blacking, Anna Czekanowska, ''Polish Folk Music: Slavonic Heritage – Polish Tradition – Contemporary Trends'', Cambridge University Press, 2006, p. 3, ISBN 0-521-02797-7 (Google Books ) same conclusions in Mark Salter, Jonathan Bousfield, ''Poland'', Rough Guides, 2002, p. 675, ISBN 1-85828-849-5 (Google Books )〕 Eventually the Silesian tribes, together with other Polish tribes, formed what is now Polish ethnicity and culture.〔Regina E.
