POPE BONIFACE VIII,MAGNUS MILESSIMONE ROSSI ANDKING STEPHEN URO II MILUTIN

In 1300, at the celebration of Jubilee in Rome, twelve Florentine representatives

of foreign countries and monarchs were received by pope Boniface VIII in the churchof St. John of Lateran. eir names and states they represented are mentioned in several

sourses, the most detailed and trustworthy being the manuscript written by FranciscanTedaldo della Casa in 1379. Among these ambassadors was magnus milesSimon Rube-us, i.e. Simone Rossi, representative of the king of Grascia. Although it was earliersurmised that Rossi was emissary of Byzantine emperor, he was in fact, as circum-stancial evidence shows, representative of the king of Rascia, Stephen Uro II Milutin.

Presence of Simone Rossi on behalf of king Milutin in Rome is a testimony ofthe cordial relations between Serbian and papal court and their continuity during thelast decade of the thirteenth and first decade of the fourteenth century, even at the timewhen the Serbian king entered dynastic marriage with Byzantine court (1299). More-over, Rossis ambassadorial role is the important indicator of the close contacts betweenRascia and communes in Northern Italy. It is not known whether the Florentine no-bleman was knight-adventurer, or possibly businessman with interest in commercialenterprises on the Eastern shores of Adriatic, but it is certain that the personality of

king Milutin must have been well known in his home city at that time. Famous refe-rence about him, made by Dante Alighieri, undoubtedly proves that fact and it needs tobe pointed out that the kings presence in the Divine comedymay be better understoodin the light of this, hitherto neglected record of political ties between Serbia and thecapital of Tuscany.
