History of the Crusades. Episode 36. The Second Crusade VIII. Hello again. Last week we saw the Crusaders arrive in the Holy Land. King Louis and the remaining French Knights arrived in Antioch, while King Conrad sailed in from Constantinople, where he had been recuperating from an arrow wound to his head which he suffered in Anatolia. The southern French fleets, complete with fresh men, arrived in the Kingdom of Jerusalem, as did the ships containing the Latin Christians who had taken Lisbon in Portugal. At the conclusion of last week's episode, we learned that a decision had been made for the Crusaders to attack Damascus. We'll come to that decision in a minute. But first I have a sad tale to tell you all. Remember Alfonso Jordan, Count of Toulouse? He's the son of Raymond, Count of Toulouse, founder of the Crusader state of Tripoli. Alfonso Jordan fled Tripoli as a baby after the death of his father, and went on to become Count of the wealthy region of Toulouse in France. Toulouse borders the Mediterranean Sea on the southern coast of France, and Alfonso Jordan and his contingent of knights very sensibly decided to sail to the Holy Land. Alfonso Jordan sailed into Acre in April 1148. His arrival was heralded by the Christian citizens of the County of Tripoli, who were eager to welcome back into the fold the son of their founder, who had, after all, been born in the region. But there were people who were not so keen to welcome Alfonso Jordan, and they of course, were the current Count of Tripoli, Raymond and his wife, the Countess Hodierna. -
History of the Crusades. Episode 32. the Second Crusade IV. Hello
History of the Crusades. Episode 32. The Second Crusade IV. Hello again. Last week we saw Pope Eugenius issue a Papal Bull calling for a Crusade, and we followed Bernard of Clairvaux as he embarked on a massive and successful recruitment drive for the Crusade. There are now tens of thousands of citizens across Europe, mainly from France and Germany, preparing to set out for the Middle East. Now, before we join the participants of the Second Crusade as they prepare for their expedition, there are events happening in other parts of Europe that we need to take a brief look at. Crusading zeal had taken a firm hold in Europe, and while the main arena was always going to be the Holy Land, the Second Crusade ended up manifesting itself on two fronts within Europe itself. The most significant of these occurred on the Spanish peninsula. In the spring of 1147, a fleet of ships containing Crusaders from England and northern Europe set sail for the Holy Land. They didn't end up in the Middle East, though. Instead they found themselves landing on the Portuguese coast. Now, historians have debated for many years whether this was intentional or whether the ships were driven to seek shelter in Portugal due to bad weather. On one side of the debate, the ships were leaving for the Holy Land prior to the main field of Crusaders who were going to walk to the Middle East. Clearly, the ships were going to arrive at their destination much earlier than the rest of the Crusaders, and there seems no reason for them to do this and then spend months hanging around waiting for everyone else to show up, so some historians argue that perhaps the Church had requested the sailors to call into Portugal on their way to the Holy Land. -

Since eight rulers - four Ray monds and four Bohemonds - struck several types of coins over a span of 150 years, the numismatist is faced with a puzzle that seems to defy solution. De Saulcy (1847), Schlumberger (1878), Sabine (1980) and Metcalf (1983) wrote extensively on the eoinage, but made attributions with many reservations. In researching the coinage of Tripoli, the writer tried to bring together evidence available in 16 mixed erusader hoards (1), histori cal sequences (2) and numismatic data (3). It was felt that if aIl three supported one theory or attribution, then this theory ean he considered acceptable until new findings be they hoard, historical or nurnisrnatic - advance a different pre mise. -

Coins of the CRUSADERS
Coins of the CRUSADERS The Crusades were a series of military conflicts of a religious character waged by much of Christian Europe against external and internal threats. Crusades were fought against Muslims, pagan Slavs, Russian and Greek Orthodox Christians, Mongols, Cathars, Hussites, and political enemies of the popes.[1] Crusaders took vows and were granted an indulgence for past sins. The Crusades originally had the goal of recapturing Jerusalem and the Holy Land from Muslim rule and were original- ly launched in response to a call from the Eastern Orthodox Byzantine Empire for help against the expansion of the Muslim Seljuk Turks into Anatolia. The term is also used to describe contemporaneous and subsequent campaigns conducted through to the 16th century in territories outside the Levant usually against pagans, heretics, and peoples under the ban of excommunication for a mixture of religious, economic, and political reasons. Rivalries among both Christian and Muslim powers led also to alliances between religious factions against their opponents, such as the Christian alliance with the Sultanate of Rum during the Fifth Crusade. The Crusades had far-reaching political, economic, and social impacts, some of which have lasted into contemporary times. Because of internal conflicts among Christian kingdoms and political powers, some of the crusade expeditions were diverted from their original aim, such as the Fourth Crusade, which resulted in the sack of Christian Constantinople and the partition of the Byzantine Empire between Venice and the Crusaders. The Sixth Crusade was the first crusade to set sail without the official blessing of the Pope, establishing the precedent that rulers other than the Pope could initiate a crusade. -
