Marc di Apulia, Prince of Antioch and Duke of Calabria "Bohemund" was born circa 1052 or 1058 in Antioch, Syria.
The nickname proved well taken because physically Bohemond was the ideally tall and strong knight - in the words of a contemporary, "a wonderful spectacle." His boyhood home was in southern Italy, where his Norman father, Robert, had gone as a mercenary and had risen to the rank of duke of Apulia and Calabria.
In the spring of 1106 Bohemond married Constance, the daughter of Philip I of France.

Bohemond begins his reign with characteristic energy and verve, attacking Bedouin caravans and driving the Arabs away from the southern marches of Palestine.
Bohemond is patient, and builds up a substantial following amongst the minor secular lords (to whom he is a great hero) and those disgruntled elements of the church, including the native Christians.
Bohemond isn't the world's best tactician (though he was certainly a brave soldier) and is careless with his scouting.

The escape and death of Gregory VII and the presence of Clement III in Rome caused a crisis in the reform movement of the church, from which, however, it quickly recovered under the pontificate of Urban II (from 1088 to 1099).
The marriage, arranged by Urban in 1089, of the 17-year-old Welf V of Bavaria with the 43-year-old countess Matilda of Tuscany, a zealous adherent of the cause of reform in the church, allied Henry's opponents in southern Germany and Italy.
It was not until Welf V separated from Matilda, in 1095, and his father, the deposed Welf IV, was once more granted Bavaria as a fief, in 1096, that Henry was able to return to Germany (in 1097).

 Roman Emperors DIR Mary of Antioch
At Antioch, Choniates tells us, Manuel took part in a tournament with blunted lances, in which the men of Reynald of Chatillon, prince of Antioch, were outmatched and Manuel excelled himself by unhorsing two knights with one blow.
Marguerite-Constance of Antioch, the daughter of Raymond of Poitiers and Constance of Antioch (who had married Reynald of Chatillon after Raymond's death), was one of the two main contenders for the position of Manuel's new bride, the other being Melisende, sister of Raymond III of Tripoli.
The envoy Camaterus was then sent to Antioch, and he picked out the younger, Marguerite, as the more beautiful of the two sisters and the future imperial bride, as her beauty was so dazzling that her escort were astounded, no Byzantines ever before having seen so handsome a girl.

Antioch proved extremely resistant to the crusader's assault--and only through the deceit of politics was the city finally taken the following June (1098) by the crusader leader, Bohemond, and his army.
"Bohemond" was a nickname given to one of the sons of Robert Guiscard, the Norman-French soldier-of-fortune who rose to become a powerful ruler in Southern Italy.
Indeed, Bohemond resembled the mythical giant he was named after, being himself a young man of exceptional height and strength.
