Eustathios Palatinos

Eustathios Palatinos

Eustathios Palatinos ( _la. Eustachius Palatinus, _it. Eustachio Palatino) was the catepan of Italy from early 1046 to before the end of the year. The primary source for his term of office is the chronicle of Lupus, a fellow protospatharius.

He was sent to replace Argyrus after the latter was recalled to Constantinople. He arrived in Otranto and travelled to Bari, his seat. He was defeated near Taranto by Drogo of Hauteville, the brother of the count of the Normans. He returned to Bari whence he was met by the new catepan John Raphael.
