Some examples of the Byzantine influence on the so-called »Norman« monar- chy of Sicily are so obvious that this influence is considered dominant even if the concept of Byzantine inheritance is still an intensely discussed topic, in particular in art history 2. Nevertheless, the iconographic examples include the famous mosaics showing the Hauteville king as a basileus, found in the Palermitan church of Santa Maria dell’Ammiraglio (the so- called »Martorana church«, built by Georg of Antioch around the middle of the 12th century, fig. 1) 3, as well as in the Monreale cathedral, which was commissioned by King Wil- liam II (1166-1189) at the end of the same century 4. In both cases, the king is wearing the renowned imperial garments, known as the loros and kamelaukion, as he is being crowned by Christ (in the Martorana church) and by the Theotokos – the Mother of God – in Monreale. In addition to these two famous examples, the Byzantine influence on the Hauteville kings can be found in areas beyond the iconographic field. For instance, we see it in the Hauteville kings’ reliance on Greek notaries to write public deeds, such as the sigillion, according to Byzantine formal models 5. Another example is the Greek signature of Roger II, which, in presenting the king as a protector of the Christians, evokes imperial pretensions 6. Also of note is the Greek intitulatio of the same king cele- brating the building of a hydraulic clock (now lost) 7, as well Fig. 1 King Roger II crowned by Christ. S.

  • The Migration of Syrian and Palestinian Populations in the 7Th Century: Movement of Individuals and Groups in the Mediterranean
    Chapter 10 The Migration of Syrian and Palestinian Populations in the 7th Century: Movement of Individuals and Groups in the Mediterranean Panagiotis Theodoropoulos In 602, the Byzantine emperor Maurice was dethroned and executed in a mili- tary coup, leading to the takeover of Phokas. In response to that, the Sasanian Great King Khosrow ii (590–628), who had been helped by Maurice in 591 to regain his throne from the usurper Bahram, launched a war of retribution against Byzantium. In 604 taking advantage of the revolt of the patrikios Nars- es against Phokas, he captured the city of Dara. By 609, the Persians had com- pleted the conquest of Byzantine Mesopotamia with the capitulation of Edes- sa.1 A year earlier, in 608, the Exarch of Carthage Herakleios the Elder rose in revolt against Phokas. His nephew Niketas campaigned against Egypt while his son, also named Herakleios, led a fleet against Constantinople. Herakleios managed to enter the city and kill Phokas. He was crowned emperor on Octo- ber 5, 610.2 Ironically, three days later on October 8, 610, Antioch, the greatest city of the Orient, surrendered to the Persians who took full advantage of the Byzantine civil strife.3 A week later Apameia, another great city in North Syria, came to terms with the Persians. Emesa fell in 611. Despite two Byzantine counter at- tacks, one led by Niketas in 611 and another led by Herakleios himself in 613, the Persian advance seemed unstoppable. Damascus surrendered in 613 and a year later Caesarea and all other coastal towns of Palestine fell as well.

    Chapter 5 Confrontation and Interchange between Byzantines and Normans in Southern Italy: the Cases of St Nicholas of Myra and St Nicholas the Pilgrim at the End of the 11th Century Penelope Mougoyianni 1 Introduction1 The Norman conquest of southern Italy in 1071 was followed by a transitional period during which significant changes took place.2 Urban governments emerged in the cities of the region because the Norman rulers could not es- tablish full control over the former Byzantine territories.3 At the same time, the bishoprics were reorganized by the pope and the Normans in order to utterly pass into the jurisdiction of the Church of Rome.4 The construction or reconstruction of the cities’s cathedrals was connected with the (re)discovery and translation of the relics of patron saints. These saints were mainly of Latin origin and many of them stemmed from southern Italy’s Latin past before the 1 I am grateful to Professors Elena Boeck (DePaul University), Stefanos Efthymiadis (Open University of Cyprus), Marina Falla Castelfranchi (University of Lecce), and Dr Mercou- rios Georgiadis for their encouragement, their valuable comments, and every kind of help they offered me at different stages of writing this article, my supervisor Professor Sophia Kalopissi-Verti (University of Athens) for generously sharing her photographs, Dr Paul Old- field (Manchester Metropolitan University) for sending me his excellent study on St Nicholas the Pilgrim, and Professor Vasilios Koukousas (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) for dis- patching to me inaccessible studies.

My thesis, however, aims to focus specifically on the military aspects of these confrontations, an area which for this period has been surprisingly neglected in the existing secondary literature.

Vera von Falkenhausen Die Capitanata in byzantinischer Zeit Riassunto: Nel periodo dalla fine del IX secolo fino alla conquista normanna nella seconda metà dell’XI la Puglia faceva parte dell’Impero bizantino. L’articolo analizza la presenza bizantina in Capitanata durante questo periodo, una presenza molto meno radicata ed evidente che nella Puglia centro-meridionale. Vengono esaminati i modi di datare i documenti nelle varie città (secondo gli anni di regno degli impe- ratori bizantini o dei principi lombardi), le strutture amministrative e difensive con i funzionari e i militari effettivamente in servizio sul territorio, nonché l’influenza bizantina sulle istituzioni ecclesiastiche. Abstract: From the late 9th century until the Norman conquest in the second half of the 11th century, Apulia was part of the Byzantine Empire. The article analyses the Byzantine presence in the Capitanata during this period, where it is far less well- rooted and evident than in central and southern Apulia.
