About this person
Joscelin III or Joscelyn III, also called Joscelin of Courtenay, was titular count of Edessa, but largely a statesman and baron of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, who managed to consolidate his own lordship centred around Acre. The County of Edessa collapsed during his childhood, with Edessa itself falling in 1144, and his father, Joscelin II, was captured in 1150. Although Joscelin was able to defend Turbessel, he was forced to flee with his mother and his sister, Agnes, selling the remainder of the county. Joscelin's life between 1151 and 1164 is poorly recorded, but he was able to slowly rebuild his power, and acquired a reputation as a "renowned champion".
