Guy Pallavicini

Guy Pallavicini (died 1237), a Lombard noble, joined the Fourth Crusade in 1203. In 1204 Boniface of Montferrat made him warden of Thermopylae, and Guy made Bodonitsa his seat as its first marquess, building a castle on an ancient acropolis.

In 1208–1209 he joined the Lombard barons' revolt against King Demetrius of Thessalonica, but by 1221 he was the kingdom's bailli and defended Thessalonica until he surrendered it to the Epirotes in 1224. Released, he returned to Bodonitsa, made his will in 1237, and died soon after, leaving the mark to his son Ubertino.
