Eirene Angelina b. 1181, d. 27 August 1208 Another continuity with the earlier image of the Byzantines is connected with their physical beauty. The cosmographer al-Qazwini (d.6/1285) states that the Byzantines are mostly white, with blond hair and sturdy bodies. Similarly, the geographer Ibn Sa'id (d.678 or 685-1274 or 1286) stresses the whiteness and blondness of the Byzantines, stating that the inhabitants of the sixth climate are characterized by extreme whiteness, blue eyes, and blond hair and they often have freckles on their faces. These physical attributes were highly valued, as can be deduced from various adab works and special manuals, which delineate the prevalent Arab typology of beauty. Her married name was Maria.
