About Maria Komnene

Maria Komnene, who married Theodoros Dasiotes, then John Kantakouzenos.[7]

-http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/BYZANTIUM%2010571204.htm#MariaKborn...

a) MARIA Komnene ( [1126]- ). Niketas Choniates names "Alexius, Andronicus et…Isaacius" as the three brothers of Emperor Manuel, stating that Andronikos left daughters "Mariam, Theodoram et Eudociam"[297]. Niketas Choniates names "Maria…Andronici sebastocrator…filia" as wife of "Dasiotes"[298]. Her second marriage is indicated by Ioannes Kinnamos who records that "Ioannes cognomento…Cantacuzenus" married "Andronici sebastocratoris filiam"[299]. As the marriages of Maria's known sisters Theodora and Evdokia are recorded in other sources (see below), it is assumed that Kinnamos is referring to a second marriage of Maria in this passage, unless Andronikos Komnenos had a fourth daughter who is otherwise unrecorded.
