5. ANDRONIKOS Komnenos (18 Sep 1091-[1130/31]). Niketas Choniates names "Andronicum" as second son of "Alexius Comnenus imperator"[218]. A manuscript, which lists the children of Emperor Alexios I, records the birth 18 Sep 1091 of “porfyrogennitos kyr Andronikos”[219]. Sebastokrator. The typikon of Theotokos Kecharitomenes provides for the future commemoration of "[le] fils de ma Majesté le porphyrogénète et sébastocrator kyr Andronic" on the date of his death[220]. Prodromos, in a poem addressed to the empress, lists (in chronological order) the deaths which had occurred in her family: “la protection des Romains, Alexis...un gendre très célèbre...Nicéphore...l’enfant d’Andronic...mais son épouse décéda auparavant...la prophyrogénète Eudocie” and adds that “tu as fait disparâitre deux fils en même temps, cruel Telkine, la vie d’Andronic et la vigueur d’Isaac. L’un erre aux extrémités de l’Anatolie, mort vivant...l’autre est parti dans l’occident ténébreux de l’Hadès”[221]. The latter part of the passage appears to refer to the death of Andronikos and the exile of Isaakios, both events dated to [1130/31]. This suggestion appears confirmed by the song composed by Mikhael Italicos after the death of Andronikos which records that “Irène Doukaina et le césar Nicéphore Bryennios” accompanied his body from the Asian bank back to Constantinople[222].

m [firstly] (betrothed 20 Aug 1104) [IRINA Volodarovna of Tmutorokan, daughter of VOLODAR Rostislavich Prince of Peremysl & his wife [Anna] of Pomerania] (-[before 1120]). The Primary Chronicle records that the daughter of Volodar was taken to Tsargrad 20 Jul 1104 to become the wife of the son of Emperor Alexios[223]. The typikon of Theotokos Kecharitomenes (dated to [1110]%29 provides for the future commemoration of "la...bru de ma Majesté, la sébastocratorissa kyra Irène" on the date of her death[224]. Prodromos, in a poem addressed to the empress, lists (in chronological order) the deaths which had occurred in her family: “la protection des Romains, Alexis...un gendre très célèbre...Nicéphore...l’enfant d’Andronic...mais son épouse décéda auparavant...”[225]. If this poem is factually correct, Irina probably died before [1120], the estimated date of death of her son.

[m secondly ANNA, daughter of ---. A poem records "un sébastocrator et porphrogénète Andronic et son épouse la sébastocratorissa Anne" which Kouroupou and Vannier suggest may refer to Andronikos Komnenos and a second wife[226].]
