Thomas Palaiologos
Despot in the Morea
Years: 1409 - 1465
Thomas Palaiologos or Palaeologus (1409 – May 12, 1465) is Despot in Morea from 1428 until the Ottoman conquest during 1460.
After the desertion of his older brother to the Turks in 1460, Thomas Palaiologos becomes the legitimate claimant to the imperial throne, a claim he maintains during his exile in Italy.
