Not much is known about Sviatoslav's son Roman, nicknamed the Red.
Roman had replaced Gleb after the latter had been being sent to Novgorod, and had united with his brother Oleg and cousin Boris (a son of one of younger sons of Yaroslav the Wise) in the fight against their uncles Grand Princes Vsevolod and Iziaslav after the death of his father in 1076.
He had taken part at the battle of Nezhatina Niva, soon after which he is killed somewhere in the Kipchak steppes (Desht-i Qipchaq, or Cumania) on August 2, 1079.
