1281 CE

Skomantas, with help from Lithuanians, had led four thousand men against the Teutonic Knights after the Great Prussian Uprising,

The Old Prussians and other Balts are losing their power, however.

Skomantas' estate is devastated in 1280–1281 and he escapes with three sons, Rukals, Gedetes and Galms, to Black Ruthenia, controlled at this time by the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
