Nicholas I Sanudo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nicholas I Sanudo (or Niccolò; died 1323) was the fifth Duke of the Archipelago from 1323 to his death. He was the son and successor of William I.
Nicholas fought under his brother-in-law Walter, Duke of Athens, at the disastrous Battle of Halmyros on 15 March 1311. He was one of the few knights on the losing side to escape with his life and liberty.
