ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ
The reaction against the Byzantine imperial power in Antioch was expressed through successive revolts of the citizens after 1071, when the city was directly threatened by the Seljuks. At the same time, Philaretos Brachamios, the ruler of an independent principality of Cilicia, coveted Antioch, which he annexed to Cilicia towards the late 1078. From then on, the Byzantine domination ceased, although the city held a strategic position that was important for maintaining Asia Minor territories. |
