Petru I may have been a Voivode (prince) of Moldavia from the end of 1367 to after July 1368. Several historians, including and , believe him to have been the son of prince Ştefan, oldest son of voivode Bogdan I of Moldavia,[1][2][3][4] while others, including historian Juliusz Demel, considered him to be the son of Costea of Moldavia with a daughter of Bogdan I.[5] In the second hypothesis, there was no such voivode of Moldavia in 1367-1368, the first using the regnal name Petru being Petru II of Moldavia.
