Feb 7, 2022 at 23:23 comment added Criminal_Affair_At_SO I am more and more convinced that Guigues IV, Compte de Forez is a very strong candidate. Here is what I have found so far: He left for the Baron's Crusade in 1239. His wikipedia page and his file in the Bibliothèque Nationale de France show he died in the south of Italy on 29 October 1241 on his way back. However "Histoire des ducs des Bourgogne" says that the exact date and place of his death remains unknown and the 29 October 1241 was the date of the testament which was written by his son, Guigues V and the fact that he died is mentionned as early as February 1241.
Feb 7, 2022 at 20:49 comment added T.E.D. I will say that of the options presented, it being a Byzantine figure is the one that best passes the smell test. Doesn't mean its right of course. Given the history of the area, particularly up to the 13th century (when the place first appeared), the name being of some kind of Greek origin seems quite likely

Feb 6, 2022 at 19:50 comment added LаngLаngС While internet sources like this confirm this legend you describe, Bg-WP tells a very different story: of a later Nicene naval commander; but unsourced… Have you checked both? Please include this in an edit to your question.
