[edit] Nun or none?

Did Maria really become a nun? Andrew Dalby 20:40, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, she "retired to a monastery", as usual, but that doesn't necessarily mean she went anywhere or did anything differently! Adam Bishop 04:30, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Patriarch

The article states that at her wedding in 1161, one of the three patriarchs was "Athanasios, Orthodox Patriarch of Antioch". But the List of Greek Orthodox Patriarchs of Antioch names Euthymius as the incumbent in 1161 (the Latin Patriarch of Alexandria was Ralph II). According to the list, Athanasius I did not become patriarch until 1166. I wonder which one is correct, Athanasios or Euthymius? MishaPan 16:15, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

I think the names are correct, and the dates in our articles are off. The names are given by John Cinnamus, the Emperor's secretary. Adam Bishop 16:41, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
