Notizen zu dieser Person
Aron (Bulgarian: Арон) was a Bulgarian noble, brother of Emperor Samuil of Bulgaria and third son of Comita Nikola, Duke of Sofia. After the fall of the eastern parts of the country under Byzantine occupation in 971, he and his three brothers David, Moses and Samuil continued the resistance to the west. They were called Comutopuli and ruled the country together, as therightful heir to the throne, Boris II and Roman were imprisoned in Constantinople. The residence of Aron was Sofia situated on the main road between Constantinople and Western Europe. He had to defend the area from enemy invasions and attack the Byzantine territories in Thrace.
In 976 in the beginning the major campaign against the Byzantine Empire, the two eldest brothers David and Moses perished but the Bulgarians achieved great successes including the return of north-eastern Bulgaria. During that time, the ByzantineEmperor Basil II had to fight both the Bulgarians and the dangerous rebellion under Bardas Skleros and he turned the customary means of the Byzntine policy: conspiracy.
His attention concentrated to Aron, who was more dangerous at the time due to the proximity of His seat to Thrace; and because of His ambition to rule over Bulgaria alone which made An eventual peace profitable for both Aron and Basil. The Bulgarian nobel asked for the Emperor's sister hand and Basil agreed but he tried to deceive Aron and sent him the wife of one of His nobles and the bishop of Sevast. However the attempted deceit was revealed and the bishop was killed, but the negotiations continued nonetheless. In the end Samuil learned of the secret negotiations and on 14 June 976 Aron together with all of His kin were executed in the vicinity of Dupnitsa. Only his eldest son Ivan Vladislav, who eventually became the lastEmperor of the Empire was spared due to the vindication of Samuil's son Gavril Radomir. Ironically, Ivan Vladislav murdered his saviour 39 years later.
