Chronica Polonorum (English: Chronicle of the Poles, Polish: Kronika polska) is a treatise about Polish history and geography written in Latin by a Polish renaissance scholar Maciej Miechowita, a professor of Jagiellonian University, historian, geographer, astrologer, and royal physician of king Sigismund I the Old.
It is based on the earlier work of Jan Długosz (Latin: Johannes Longinus), supplementing its content with the events leading to the accession of Sigismund the Old to the throne.
[3] As a result of the intervention of the Senate some passages have been removed, others deeply revised, because a number of nobles felt offended by the hostile description of their ancestors.
The book was republished in 1521 without the offending passages about Jagiellons and the Primate Jan Łaski.
Miechowita had his Chronica Polonorum republished by printer Hieronim Wietor of Kraków.
