text: Jan. 15. Lateran. The patriarch of Jerusalem had informed Pope Innocent III that he had annulled the action of the chapter of Nicosia. In the election of the archbishop it had nominated 2 names to the king of Cyprus, who had chosen the thesaurarius ecclesiae. This may have been by ancient custom, but it is uncanonical and the pope orders the chapter to elect an archbishop freely. The appointment will be confirmed by the patriarch, the archbishop of Caesarea and the bishop of Acre, whom the pope appoints his representatives in this matter. Jan. 15. Lateran.

comments: [300] For the date see Claverie, L’ordre du Temple 3:423. [301] On 31 July 1215 Pope Innocent III ordered all the prelates of France to sanction those who aided Erardus de Brena, who had married one of the daughters of the late Henricus comes Trecensis. She was illegitimately conceived, because Isabella of Jerusalem had illicitly married Henricus and, before him, Conradus marchio Montisferrati. Patriarch Albert of Jerusalem had prohibited the marriage of Erardus, but, taking advantage of Albert’s death, Erardus had travelled to Genoa and crossed the Alps, disturbing both France and the Holy Land.

Raymond Rupen was received as legitimate prince at the cathedral by the patriarch, who gave him the vexillum principale and paid liege homage [ligium homagium] to him, as did the milites and clientes belligeri at the palatium. Then the barones, milites and burgenses who had been exiled were restored to their possessions. Leon agreed to restore [to the Latins] the church of Tarsus [Tarsensis Ecclesia], for which the patriarch had consecrated as archbishop the cantor Antiochen. Ecclesiae, and the church of Mamistra [Manustana Ecclesia], which he recognized to be a suffragan see of the patriarchate and to the archbishopric of which was elected the archidiaconus Antiochiae. The fons Gustoni was restored to the abbey of St Paul. The abbots of Nigra Montana had their casalia and holdings restored and the Knights Templar were given back the castellum of Gastum, which Leon had acquired from the pagani and had detained because of the needs of warfare. Leon reports that there is now peace in the land, as the pope will learn from the Knights Templar, the Hospitallers of St John and other religious, should he enquire. Leon asks for aid and the promise of indulgences for those who come to the assistance of Cilician Armenia and Antioch. Before Oct.
