Manuel Maurozomes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Manuel Maurozomes, a Byzantine warlord, was the son of Theodore Maurozomes and of an illegitimate daughter of the Byzantine emperor Manuel I Komnenos.
After the fall of Constantinople and the collapse of the Byzantine Empire as a result of the Fourth Crusade, Manuel Maurozomes fought in 1205 and 1206 on behalf of Kay Khusrau I, who was Seljuk sultan of Rûm from 1205 to 1211.
Manuel Maurozomes' daughter, whose name is unknown, married Kay Khusrau. Their son, Ala ad-Din Kay Qubadh I, ruled the Sultanate from 1220 to 1237, and their grandson, Ghiyath ad-Din Kay Khusrau II, ruled from 1237 to 1246.
