Chapter 13. KALAMANOS

1. KÁLMÁN, son of [BORIS KONRAD of Hungary & his wife Anna Doukaina] ([1137/1145]-after 1173). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. He is assumed to have been born when his father was living in Constantinople. He adopted the name KONSTANTINOS DoukasKalamános in Byzantium[236], where he settled. Ioannes Kinnamos names "Constantino Ciliciæ duce,quem Calamanum iuvenem vocabant"[237]. He became a General in the Byzantine army and was awardedthe title sébastos by Emperor Manuel I. In 1163, Constance Pss of Antioch appealed to KonstantinosKalamános, Byzantine Governor of Cilicia, for military support to maintain her position in Antioch[238].General Kalamános joined forces with Bohémond III Prince of Antioch, Raymond III Count of Tripoli andHugues de Lusignan to relieve the siege of the castle of Krak by Nur ed-Din in 1163[239]. He joined thesame group in Aug 1164 to relieve another attack on Harenc, but was captured in an ambush at Artah,together with the other leaders, and taken bound to Aleppo, although Kalamános was released almostimmediately in return for 150 silken robes[240]. He was appointed Governor of Cilicia in 1167, and alsocharged with the mission of ending the relationship between Andronikos Komnenos (his predecessor asGovernor of Cilicia) and Philippa, sister of Bohémond III Prince of Antioch, although Philippa refused his proposal of marriage[241]. He suppressed the revolt of Thoros II Lord of the Mountains [Armenia-Rupen]who had attacked Byzantine garrisons after accusing Andronikos Komnenos, while Governor, of complicityin the murder in 1165 of his brother Stephané[242]. He was captured in Armenia in 1172/73, after which hewas probably succeeded as Governor of Cilicia by Isaakios Doukas (later emperor in Cyprus)[243]. It is notclear whether General Kalamános was captured on two separate occasions, or whether the two occasionsdescribed above were two versions of the same event which, if the latter is correct, would have to be re-dated. A seal dated to [1175] names "Kalamanos"[244]. His descendants were the Kalomanoi family inByzantium
