Kantakouzenos
The house of Kantakouzenos ((ギリシア語:Καντακουζηνός); pl. ''Kantakouzenoi''), Latinized as Cantacuzenus and Anglicized as Cantacuzene, was one of the most prominent noble families of the Byzantine Empire in the last centuries of its existence. The family was one of the Empire's wealthiest and provided several prominent governors and generals, as well as two Byzantine emperors. The Kantakouzenoi intermarried extensively with other Byzantine noble families such as the Palaiologoi, the Philanthropenoi, the Asen, and the Tarchaneiotes. The feminine form of the name is Kantakouzene ((ギリシア語:Καντακουζηνή)), Latinized as Cantacuzena.
==Etymology==
The origin of the family's surname, to follow Donald Nicol, "lies between romantic guesswork and philological conjecture."〔Nicol (1968), p. viii〕 Prince Michael Cantacuzino, an 18th-century aristocrat who traced his ancestry to this Byzantine family, provides examples of the first kind, such as the family began with a certain "Lucie Cusin" who married one "Serafina Catina", and united their familial names into the compound one of "Ca(n)tacuzino". Nicol prefers the second kind of explanation, and repeats the theory of Konstantinos Amantos that Kantakouzenos derives from , ultimately from the locality of Kouzenas, a name for the southern part of Mount Sipylus near Smyrna. Nicol lists some connections the Kantakouzenos had with the locale in the 11th and 13th centuries.〔Nicol (1968), pp. viiif〕
