Adiva

{{Short description|10th-century Bohemian noblewoman}}

Adiva (fl. c. 10th century CE) was the first wife of Boleslaus II of Bohemia.{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=4nXRAAAAMAAJ&q=Adiva+bohemia |title=Časopis Národního musea: Oddíl věd společenských |date=1953 |publisher=Museum |language=cs}} It has been speculated that she was the progeny of Edward the Elder, King of England, and his second wife Aelfflaed, but the evidence for this is weak.{{Cite book |last=Bauer |first=Jan |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=12-RDwAAQBAJ&dq=Adiva+boleslav&pg=PT4 |title=Ženy z rodu Přemyslovců |date=2012-01-01 |publisher=Alpress |isbn=978-80-7466-624-7 |language=cs}} Favouring the conjecture is the similarity of her name to certain Anglo-Saxon forms, and the introduction of English-influenced coinage into Bohemia. Nevertheless, since there are a handful of other possible candidates, the evidence for the hypothesis must be counted insufficient.

She and Boleslaus had the following children:

• Boleslaus III of Bohemia
• Wenceslaus (died as an infant)
• Jaromir of Bohemia
• Oldrich of Bohemia
