Years: 1092 - 1092

Jordan, who had been present at the siege of Noto in February 1091, has been made lord of Noto and count of Syracuse and here he dies, of fever, probably in 1092.

Despite having inherited all the Hauteville attributes which had made their rule in the Mezzogiorno all but inevitable, Jordan had not been in line for the succession on account of his illegitimacy until his brother Geoffrey became a leper, then he had been designated heir apparent.

A stone recording his death can still be seen in the church of Santa Maria in Mili San Pietro, near Messina.
