Something wrong?A Norman warlord who turned a holy war into a personal empire. Bohemond carved out Antioch during the First Crusade and never gave it back, spending two decades defying emperors, rivals, and the premise that he'd come to liberate rather than rule.

Bohemond of Hauteville became prince of Taranto in 1089, a title that marked him but didn't satisfy him. When the First Crusade launched, he led a Norman contingent east, bringing hard-won knowledge of Byzantine territory from earlier campaigns alongside his father. That experience made him the expedition's sharpest military mind. In 1098 he seized Antioch and declared himself its prince, a claim he held until his death on 5 or 7 March 1111. The city became his monument - a Crusader state won in the name of God, kept in the name of Bohemond.
