Michael Doukas Glabas Tarchaneiotes
Michael Doukas Glabas Tarchaneiotes (c. 1235–1308) was a leading Byzantine general under Michael VIII and Andronikos II. In 1263 he defeated the Bulgarians in Thrace, and in 1279 he captured the Bulgarian capital of Tarnovo. He later recovered Dyrrhachion in Albania from the Angevins.
Unable to overcome Serbian guerrilla tactics, he advised peace, leading to the 1299 treaty sealed by Simonida's marriage to Stefan Uroš II. In 1304 he retook Mesembria from the Bulgarians but fell ill and returned to Constantinople. He restored the Pammakaristos Church, where he was buried.
