Palman

Palman (called Palman Bracht; c. 1290–after 1363) was a German knight born in Styria. After serving the Habsburgs, he set out for the Holy Land, entered Zeta and joined Stefan Dušan with his German followers, becoming captain of Dušan's Alemannic Guard of 300 men.

In 1331 he marched with Dušan from Skadar against Stefan Uroš III, and he later put down revolts in Zeta and northern Albania. He held Veria until John Cantacuzene retook it. He is last attested in 1363 and lives on in Serbian epic poetry.
