Mongol, Cumanian, or Hungarian?

Was Elizabeth the Cuman a Hungarian, Cumanian or Mongol, because the word "Chieftian" is usually connected to the Mongol Empire, and according to this article, her father was a chieftian, I don't see a valid reason why a Eastern Slavic European king would marry a Mongol or Cumanian, so can you try to change her father to "Unknown" and say she is in fact a Hungarian and change the article name to Elizabeth of Hungary, thank you!

Nonsense! Just because you associate the word "chieftain" with the Mongols, doesn't mean that any such radical assumptions can be made, much less acted upon. --Orange Mike | Talk 03:45, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Alixapixle8 -- Look at the 1230 A.D. map Colin McEvedy's "The Penguin Atlas of Medieval History" to see why a Hungarian might marry a Cuman... AnonMoos (talk) 08:53, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Female-line descendant

A piece of semi-trivia which some may find interesting, is that Elizabeth the Cuman is the female-line ancestor of Philippa of Hainault, the wife of Edward III of England, showing the mobility of some royal or high-ranking noble brides in that era: Philippa of Hainault → Joan of Valois, Countess of Hainaut → Margaret, Countess of Anjou → Mary of Hungary, Queen of Naples → Elizabeth the Cuman...
