About Princess of Nicaea Eudoxia Lascarina

e) EVDOKIA Laskarina (1254-after 21 Apr 1304). Georgius Akropolites names "Ioannem…Theodoram et Eudociam" as the three remaining unmarried children of Emperor Theodoros II[184]. Ephræmius names "parvulum Ioannem…duasque virgunculas, Eudociam…ac Theodoram" as the three children still remaining at home when "Theodorus" died[185]. Pachymeres records that "pueri Ioannis sorores germanas…alteram" married "Latino…magistani…Vintimilia ex urbe Genua"[186]. Her son adopted the name Laskaris. According to Europäische Stammtafeln, Evdokia married secondly Arnau Roger [I] Conde de Pallars[187]. This is proved incorrect by the various Spanish charters quoted below in which Evdokia is consistently named “infantissa” (honouring the fact that she was the ruler’s daughter, in line with Spanish practice), in contrast to her daughter [Lascara] de Vintimille who was recorded in other charters (see the document PROVENCE) as widow of Conde Arnau Roger but never with this honorific to which she was not entitled as the ruler’s granddaughter. Secondary sources available on the web indicate that Baucells i Reig reached the same conclusion[188], but as his article has not been consulted it has not proved possible to ascertain whether he used the same argument. It should be noted that Miret y Sans, in his article on Evdokia in the early 20th century, failed to notice the distinction of the titles accorded to mother and daughter and assumed that the conde de Pallars was Evdokia’s second husband[189]. Pedro III King of Aragon acknowledged the marriage contract between “Raimundo de Montechateno domino de Fraga...Guillelmo de Montecateno filio vestro” and “domina Azchara infantissa de Grecia...dompne Beatricis filie sue” by charter dated 15 Apr 1282[190]. The absence of Evdokia’s husband from this document presumably indicates that he was deceased at the time. “Domina infantissa Lascherea filia quondam...Lascheri imperatoris Grecorum” transferred the pension granted by the king to “Simoni de Vico campsori Barchinone” by charter dated 27 Jul 1288[191]. Alfonso III King of Aragon granted “ad habitagium vestrum Regale nostrum Xatiue” to “dompne Alaschere infantisse grecorum” by charter dated 28 Jul [1286/90][192]. Jaime II King of Aragon, at the request of “dompne Alaschare infantisse Grecorum”, ordered Guillem de Montcada to respect her rights to “los lugares de Zaidín y Vallobar por ser heredera de su difunta hija Beatriz” by charter dated 21 Apr 1304[193].
