Raymond of Antioch

Raymond of Antioch ( 1195 – 1213 in Tartus) was the eldest son of Bohemond IV of Antioch and Plaisance of Gibelet.

18-year-old Raymond, who was the heir to the throne of Antioch and Tripoli, was murdered by the Assassins in 1213 outside the door of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Tortosa. An involvement by the Hospitallers, who were hostile to the victim's father, remained speculation in contemporary lore.

In retaliation, Raymond's father Bohemond IV and a reinforcement of Knights Templars assaulted the Assassins' stronghold in Nizari Isma'ili fortress in Khawabi in 1214. The Assassins requested aid from the Ayyubid ruler of Aleppo, az-Zahir Ghazi, who in turn appealed to his rival and uncle al-Adil, the Ayyubid sultan of Egypt.
