maria comnena

Maria Comnena was the second wife of Amalric I of Jerusalem and mother of Isabella of Jerusalem. Amalric was first married to Agnes of Courtenay, the daughter of Joscelin II of Courtney, count of Edessa, who bore him two children, Sibylla and Baldwin IV. This marriage was annulled, and Amalric married Maria, great-grandniece of Byzantine Emperor Manuel I Comnenus, on August 29, 1167. Maria bore him a daughter, Isabella, in 1172, and a stillborn child some time later. On his deathbed, Amalric left Nablus to Maria, who became dowager-queen upon his death, and Isabella. In 1177, Maria married Balian of Ibelin. She bore him at least one child, John of Ibelin, Lord of Beirut and constable of Jerusalem. Maria and Balian supported Conrad of Montferrat in his struggle for the kingship against Guy of Lusignan, and arranged for Marias daughter by Amalric, Isabella, to marry Conrad, giving him a stronger claim to the throne.
