Jacopo Gattilusio

Jacopo Gattilusio (* 1390, † 1428 ) was from 1403 or 1404 to 1428 Archon ( Regent or Mr. ) of Lesbos.

He came from the prestigious Genoese patrician family Gattilusio and was a son of Archon Francesco II of Lesbos Gattilusio, and his wife, an unnamed princess of Byzantium. After the death of his father, he joined its successor as Lord of Lesbos. Relatively little is known about the reign of Jacopo Gattilusio. Until 1408 he was under the tutelage of his uncle Niccolo I. Gattilusio, Lord of Ainos. Probably around 1410 Jacopo married to Valentina Doria from the Genoese noble family of Doria. Since this marriage remained childless, was his younger brother Dorino, the Lord of Phocaea, new Archon of Lesbos after Jacopo's death in 1428.
