Jacob_Notaras
Jacob Notaras (Greek: Ιάκωβος Νοταράς; c. 1439 – c. 1491), also erroneously called Isaac, was a Byzantine aristocrat who survived the fall of Constantinople in 1453. Having attracted the Ottoman ruler Mehmed the Conqueror as an adolescent, he was confined to the seraglio until he escaped in 1460. He later became one of the leaders of the Byzantine diaspora in Italy.
