Tzakones #35775477
Description
Since the 13th century, the name Tzakones was applied to the light armed soldiers whom Michael VIII Palaiologos brought in from the Peloponnese (specifically from the regoin Laconia=Tsakonia) to Constantinople, to fight as marines for the imperial navy and to guard the palace. Their heraldry can be found in the castle Mystras in Laconia. (two lions facing each other)
