Urman-24 and Unknown-247962 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicates, Unknown is probaby better than Urman, which while it does identify her, it primarily denotes a nationality

Added uncertain existence. Rurik's Wikipedia article seems to indicate (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rurik, under the final section, Legacy) that Vasily Tatischev identified her, "apparently basing his account on the lost Ioachim Chronicle." Reading the page on this chronicle, if Tatischev is correct re: the author, the author was born about a century after Rurik died. The article further indicates that there is serious doubt about Tatischev's historicity, referencing the possibility that, as his sources couldn't be cross-referenced, they could be fake. Charles Cawley's "Medieval Lands" indicates that Rurik's spouse is unknown.
