Κασανδρηνός

Description

Mentioned in the sources from 1300 to 1335. He appears as πανσέβαστος σεβαστός and οἰκεῖος of the Byzantine emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos in the sources. He held the position of λογαριαστὴς τῆς αὐλῆς. He owned some land near Ropalia in 1300. His property near Topolobikos is mentioned in the praktikon of Demetrios Apelmene from March 1301, in the praktikon of Konstantinos Kunales, Demetrios Kontenos and the Prokathemenos Leon Kalognomos from November 1318 and in the praktikon of Konstantinos Pergamenos and Georgios Phariseos from September 1320. He was the addressee of a letter written by Michael Gabras between 1315 and 1319. His name was erased in the letter. He possessed estates in the village Chudena before 1318 (surely long before July 1334). He owned the village τοῦ Γεωργηλᾶ with the hamlet Apidea and the village τοῦ Εὐνούχου with the manor Goreantzes before March 1319. He is mentioned in the decision charter of Esaias, the Patriarch of Constantinople, and the synod concerning the dispute between Sebastos Konstantinos Muzalon and Nikolaos Kephalas from April 1324. He is probably identical with the Kasandrenos, who joined on the 20th March 1326 together with Andronikos Komnenos Dukas Palaiologos Tornikes at Amphipolis the embassy from Constantinople heading to the Serbian king. He unjustly acquired the rights for fishing at Chudena and Neboliane before 1333.
