The Chronicle of Henry of Livonia (
Latvian: Indriķa hronika,
Latin: Heinrici Cronicon Lyvoniae,
Estonian: Henriku Liivimaa kroonika) is a historic document describing the history of
Latvia and
Estonia from
1180 to 1227. Apart from the few references in the Russian
Primary Chronicle compiled in
Kiev in the twelfth century, it is the oldest known written document about the history of these countries. For many episodes in the early stages of
Christianizing the peoples of the Eastern Baltic, Henry's chronicle is the major surviving evidence aside of The
Livonian Rhymed Chronicle and The chronicle of Novgorod, 1016-1471.
