Certainty: 3 Poverty & squabbles in the siege of Antioch
Raymond of Toulouse, despite his reputation for meanness, funded Tancred to build a fort and gave money to Adhemar for fresh horses for the army; in particular, after much pleading, he gave Godfrey a horse to ride in the battle. Godfrey himself fed Hartmann of Dillingen and Henry of Esch, who might otherwise have starved to death. Robert of Flanders, depite his military prowess, was often reduced to begging for a horse. A representative of Alexios I played a role in getting food from Byzantine islands, especially Cyprus. At another level, Nichosios, an Armenian governor, out of respect for Baldwin of Edessa, sent a beautiful pavilion to Godfrey, which was siezed by Pakrad and converted into a gift from himself to Bohemond. Godfrey learned the truth and, taking his friend Robert of Flanders, went to see Bohemond to sort out the affair. He would later have revenge on Pakrad
