Bohemond of Hauteville, son of Robert Guiscard by his first wife, inherited his father's martial spirit and strategic mind. From his position as Prince of Taranto, he led naval forces at Durazzo, commanded armies in Greece, achieved victories over the Greek emperor, and became a key figure in the early Crusades, eventually establishing himself as Bohemond I of Antioch.
