  • Battle of Ümera (Estonian: Ümera lahing) or Battle of Imera (Latvian: Kauja pie Imeras), recorded by Henry of Latvia was fought south of Valmiera (Estonian: Volmari), near the Gauja River (Estonian: Ümera) in August or September 1210, during the Livonian Crusade between Crusaders and Estonians. The Estonians won the battle. The retreating Estonian forces crossed the Gauja River and set up an ambush at its tributary. The pursuing Crusaders believed their enemy was fleeing in haste, something that had been confirmed by their scouts. The vanguard consisted of some 20 knights of the Livonian Brothers of the Sword, led by Landmarschall Arnold. They were followed by Livonians led by Caupo of Turaida, and Latgalians. The Estonians hiding in the forest around Gauja River charged the enemy unexpectedly. The sudden attack caught the Crusaders off guard. Around hundred Livonians, Latgalians and Germans were captured. The knights tried to regroup around their banner, but as soon as their reinforcements escaped, they too fled the battlefield. The Estonians pursued them and some were captured and killed on the scene. According to the Livonian Chronicle, some of the prisoners were burned alive, while others had crosses carved on their backs with swords, before being executed as well. A victory over the Brothers of the Sword was a huge morale booster for the Estonians. A message of this feat was sent to all counties with a promise to be as "one heart and one soul against the Christian name". (en)
  • La batalla de Ümera tuvo lugar cerca de Valmiera, Letonia, en las cercanías del río Ümera en 1210, durante las cruzadas bálticas entre los Hermanos Livonios de la Espada y los clanes paganos estonios, estos últimos ganaron la batalla.​La batalla se encuentra detallada en la crónica de Enrique de Livonia.​ Los estonios de desplazaron a lo largo del río Koiva (hoy Gauja) y se detuvieron en la desembocadura de su afluente mientras les perseguían los cruzados y sus aliados livonios y latgalianos, recién convertidos al Cristianismo, con la seguridad que su enemigo estaba huyendo "con la cabeza entre sus talones", tal y como confirmaban sus espías. Los estonios, sin embargo, habían preparado una emboscada y atacaron a los perseguidores de forma inesperada matando a la mayoría de las fuerzas cristianas. Aunque los cruzados intentaron reagruparse, siguieron a los que habían escapado de la masacre y fueron capturados por los estonios, algunos murieron en la captura y catorce supervivientes fueron marcados con una cruz en sus espaldas antes de ser ejecutados y otros fueron quemados vivos. Fue una victoria que proporcionó gran moral a los paganos y un mensaje de la hazaña fue enviado a todos los clanes estonios, que se comprometieron a ser "un solo corazón y una sola alma contra el cristiano".​ Bertold, hijo del caudillo cristiano livonio Kaupo de Turaida, aliado de la orden militar, murió en la batalla.
