ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ
In the spring of 1182, John Komnenos Vatatzes, megas domestikos (higher military commander) and dux of the theme of Thrakesion, rebelled against Andronikos Komnenos in Philadelphia. His aim was to defend the right of the underage Alexios II to the throne, which he believed was in danger since Andronikos had assumed regency. At the end of the spring of 1182, the rebel defeated the imperial army which was sent against him but he died a few days later and order was restored in Philadelphia. |
