In 1130, Arnold "Draeckenbaert" refused to recognize Godevaert I, count of Leuven, as Duke of Brabant. Godevaert was instated as duke by Emperor Hendrik V. Duke Godevaert II continues the battle against Arnold, but survives only for 4 years. In 1145, Arnold wins from Godevaert III, who was just a baby and is mentioned in old texts as Godevaert "in den wiege" (in the crib). Arnold dies, however, in battle.
