Talk:Constantine IX Monomachos
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'd like to know the source for the name 'Irene' for the daughter of Constantine IX. This Monomachina is buried at the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, and on her tomb her name is given as 'Anastasia'. Missi 05:10, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
Why was he called 'Monomachos'? What's the source for the nickname? idiotoff 07:25, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
- It was a family name...probably some ancestor single-handedly killed a bunch of people in battle, or something like that. Adam Bishop 15:56, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
