The fortunes of the Rus'-Pecheneg confrontation swung during the reign of Vladimir I of Kiev (990–995), who founded the town of Pereyaslav upon the site of his victory over the Pechenegs, followed by the defeat of the Pechenegs during the reign of Yaroslav I the Wise in 1036.
The weakened Pechenegs are soon replaced in the Pontic steppe by other nomadic peoples, the Cumans and the Torkil.
