Page "Jan Žižka" Paragraph 16

He continued his campaigns against the Romanists and the adherents of Sigismund, and having captured and rebuilt a small castle near Litoměřice ( Leitmeritz ) he retained possession of it, the only reward for his great services that he ever received or claimed.

According to the Hussite custom he gave the biblical name of Chalice ( Kalich in Czech ) to this new possession, and henceforth adopted the signature of Žižka of the Chalice.

Jan Žižka didn't capture more estates during hussite wars.

This fact wasn't usual at this time and made huge difference between Žižka and his contemporaries.
