'''John II''' or '''III''' ([[Nicosia]], [[May 16]], [[1418]] – [[Nicosia]], [[July 28]], [[1458]]) was the [[King of Cyprus]] from 1432 to 1458. He was previously a Titular [[Prince of Antioch]]. In May, 1435/1440 he married Aimee or Amadea Palaeologus of Montferrat ([[August 3]], [[1429]] – [[Nicosia]], [[September 13]], [[1440]]), Queen of Cyprus, Titular Queen of Jerusalem and Armenia, daughter of [[John Jacob of Montferrat|John Jacob]], [[Marquess of Montferrat]], without issue. His second wife, a distant relative of his first one, married in [[Nicosia]], 1441 or [[February 3]], [[1442]] was [[Helena Palaeologus]] or Helene Palaiologina (1428 – [[April 11]], [[1458]]), only child and daughter of [[Theodore II Palaeologus]], [[Despotate of Morea|Despot of Morea]] and his wife Cleope or Cleofa Malatesta. Theodore was a son of [[Eastern Roman Emperor]] [[Manuel II Palaeologus]] and [[Helena Dragaš]] and the brother of the last two [[Eastern Roman Emperor]], [[John VIII Palaeologus]] and [[Constantine XI Palaeologus]]. By his second marriage he had two daughters: |

Accusations that Hawise was a witch may be borne out by covert historical documents. I have been decoding the French Tapestries of the Lady and the Unicorn and seem to have come across her as a possible candidate co-schemer with Prince / King John over the de jure heirs Arthur and Eleanor of Brittany. |

Upon the death of John II, his only surviving legitimate child [[Charlotte of Cyprus|Charlotte]] succeeded to the throne. |

John had an illegitimate son by Marietta de Patras, [[James II of Cyprus|James]], whom he appointed Archbishopic of [[Nicosia]] at the young age of 16. James did not prove ideal Archbishop material, and was stripped of his title after murdering the [[Royal]] [[Chamberlain (office)|Chamberlain]]. His father eventually forgave him and restored the Archbishopric. James and Helena were enemies, vying for influence over John. After Helena died in 1458, it appeared that John would appoint James as his successor, but John died before he could make it so. |

He was the last direct legitimate male descendant of [[Raymond of Antioch]], younger and bastard son of [[William IX of Aquitaine]]. |
