The Tale of the Battle with Mamai (Russian: Сказание о Мамаевом побоище, romanized: Skazaniye o Mamayevom poboishche), also translated as The Tale of the Battle Against Mamai,[1] is a Russian literary work about the Battle of Kulikovo in 1380. The first version was likely produced in the 15th century,[2][3] although some recent studies suggest that it was written in the early 16th century.[4] It belongs to the Kulikovo cycle of works, along with the Chronicle Account of the Battle with Mamai and Zadonshchina.[5]
The Tale starts with the following:
I want to tell you, brethren, about the battles of the recent war, about how the battle on the Don between Grand Duke Dmitry Ivanovich and all Orthodox Christians and the infidel Mamai and the godless sons of Hagar [Muslims] came about.[6][7]
