Angelo Sanudo

Angelo Sanudo

Angelo Sanudo (died 1262) was the second Duke of the Archipelago from 1227, when his father, Marco I, died, until his own death.

Family

Angelo was a son of Marco I Sanudo. [ [http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/LATIN%20LORDSHIPS%20IN%20GREECE.htm#MarcoINaxosdied1227 Profile of Marco I in "Medieval Lands" by Charles Cawley] ] According to "The Latins in the Levant. A History of Frankish Greece (1204-1566)" (1908) by William Miller, Marco I married "Laskaraina", a woman of the Laskaris family. Miller identified her as a sister of Constantine Laskaris and Theodore I Laskaris. He based this theory on his own interpretation of Italian chronicles. The "Dictionnaire historique et Généalogique des grandes familles de Grèce, d'Albanie et de Constantinople" (1983) by Mihail-Dimitri Sturdza rejected the theory, based on the silence of Byzantine primary sources.

Reign

In 1235, Angelo sent a naval squadron to the defence of Constantinople, where the Emperor John of Brienne was being besieged by John III Doukas Vatatzes, Emperor of Nicaea, and Ivan Asen II of Bulgaria. By Angelo's further intervention, a truce was signed between the two empires for two years.

Angelo was succeeded by his son Marco II.

Marriage and children

According to Miller, Angelo married "a French dame of high degree", daughter of Macaire de Saint-Ménéhould. In 1262, his wife reportedly welcomed Baldwin II of Courtenay who was attempting to reclaim the throne of the Latin Empire. [William Miller, "The Latins in the Levant. A History of Frankish Greece (1204-1566)" (1908), page 574] They had at least three children [ [http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/LATIN%20LORDSHIPS%20IN%20GREECE.htm#MarcoINaxosdied1227 Profile of Marco I and his children in "Medieval Lands" by Charles Cawley] ] :

"Les Seigneurs Tierciers de Négrepont" (1893) by Louis, Count of Mas Latrie, considered her mother to be William's second wife, Simone of Villehardouin.

She was either illegitimate or a daughter of his first wife, Agnes de Toucy.
