Dieudonné de Gozon : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dieudonné de Gozon
Dieudonné de Gozon was the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes from 1346 to 1353. He was born to a noble family in Languedoc, France. He carried the nickname ''Extinctor Draconis'' which means "The Dragon Slayer" in Latin. ==The Dragon of Rhodes== It is so told that there was a dragon in the island of Rhodes, Greece, hiding in the local swamp, and killing the cattle of the local farmers. Despite the orders of the previous Grand Master not to disturb the beast, Gozon slew the dragon, and hung the head on one of the seven gates of the medieval town of Rhodes. The head was on display until around 1837, when it was disposed of by workers responsible for repairing the castle. In 1347 and 1348 the Grand Master proved his gallantry when the Order marched to the help of King Constantine V of Armenia, threatened by the army of the Sultan of Egypt.
