Details

Birthday 30th November, 1219
Died 1307

Maria of Antioch (c. 1220 – after 10 December 1307) was a claimant to the throne of the Kingdom of Jerusalem from 1268 to 1277. In 1267, she claimed the right to rule the kingdom as regent in the name of the absentee King Conrad III. Her legal case was solid, resting on the proximity of blood to the king, but she was rejected by the High Court of Jerusalem in favor of her nephew Hugh III of Cyprus. When Conrad died in 1268, she demanded to be crowned as his successor. Spurned yet again for Hugh, she moved to Europe and in 1277 sold her claim to Charles I of Anjou. Later in life, she laid claim to the defunct County of Tripoli.
