CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE ARRIVAL AND ESTABLISHMENT OF THE FRANKOPAN FAMILY IN THE KINGDOM OF HUNGARY UNTIL 1263

Summary/Abstract: The subject of the presented study is the presentation of a partial issue related to the origin of Duym, the ancestor of the Hungarian (Veglian) branch of the Frankopan family and his work on the island of Veglia. We observe the entry of his sons Bartholomew and Guido into the service of the Hungarian King Bela III, as well as the career rise of their descendants, from the very birth in 1193 until the second half of the 13th century, when members of this family finally established themselves in circles of high court politics. In addition to the adaptation of Duym‘s sons, the subject of interest of this study focuses on the territorial expansion of the Frankopan family from the territory of today‘s island of Veglia (Krk) to the southwestern region of the Kingdom of Hungary, specifically to the Veglian, Modruš and Vinodol administrative unit. The aim of our contribution is also to point out the strengthening position of Venice and their relentless efforts to expand their power circle further southeast into the region of coastal Dalmatia.
