In 1297, the Trapezuntine Emperor John II Grand Komnenos died while in Limnia. In 1317, according to Bryer, although it "was the last and lowliest of the suffragans of Amaseia its bishops assumed the metropolitan rights of the inland city."Bryer, "Greeks and Türkmens", p. 129 On the other hand, Speros Vryonis Speros Vryonis Jr. ( el, Σπυρίδων "Σπύρος" Βρυώνης, July 18, 1928 – March 12, 2019) was an American historian of Greek descent and ...
