Can we get a coat of arms in the article for the Duchy? --Daniel C. Boyer 18:57, 26 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I don't think I've ever seen one, although I'm sure they had some sort of heraldry. Do you know where one might be found? Adam Bishop 05:06, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)

This article currently states:

Athens was originally a vassal state of the Kingdom of Thessalonica, but after Thessalonica was captured in 1224 by Theodore, the Byzantine Despot of Epirus...

However, according to the Thessaloniki article, it was conquered by Michael Ducas (which makes sense, as Theodore had already died by that time). Is it agreed that this should be changed? -- Itai 10:13, 3 Dec 2004 (UTC)
