Michael (I) from the kindred Hahót (Hungarian: Hahót nembeli (I.) Mihály; fl. 1222–56) was a Hungarian noble, who served as ispán of Varaždin County in 1244.



Career


Michael I was born into the Hahold branch of the gens Hahót as the son of Hahold II (fl. 1192) and his unidentified first wife. He had a brother, Hahold III, who was ispán of Vas County from 1237 to 1239.[1] Their father married for the second time, which marriage produced further three sons: Ákos, Nicholas I and Denis I. Michael I had two children: Michael II and an unidentified daughter, who married Györk Atyusz, the son of influential baron Atyusz III Atyusz. It is presumable that John, the Archbishop of Split from 1266 to 1294, who entered Franciscans prior to that, was also his son.[2]


He was first mentioned by contemporary records in 1222, when bought the land of Szemenye (today in Muraszemenye) from the Chapter of Veszprém.[3] Alongside his cousin, Ban Buzád Hahót, he appeared as a witness in the so-called Kehida Diploma of 1232, where the royal servants of Zala County urged King Andrew II of Hungary to recognise their verdict as compulsory, because Atyusz, the father of Michael's future son-in-law, refused to give back the land of Wezmech to the Diocese of Veszprém. Later, the royal servants were able to enforce the verdict as Bartholomew, Bishop of Veszprém sold Wezmech to Michael Hahót in 1239.[4] In a royal charter of 1234, the sons of Ban Buzád agreed to their second-degree uncle, Michael to own the kindred's possession of Szemenye sole and entire.[5]


From 1239 to 1240 (or 1241), he served as Master of the stewards for Queen Maria Laskarina, the consort of King Béla IV of Hungary.[6] In this capacity, he took care of the minor children – Catherine, Elizabeth, Constance, Yolanda and Stephen – of the royal family until the king's court fled to Dalmatia following the Mongol invasion and the disastrous Battle of Mohi in April 1241. After that he was entrusted to maintain order in the area of Varaždin and Ptuj after the withdrawal of the Mongols in 1242.[7] Thus it is possible he already held the Varaždin (Hungarian: Varasd) ispánate (which then belonged to the Hungarian realm and was not part of the province of Slavonia) since that year. In this context, he was first mentioned by a source in July 1244.[8]


In 1248, he founded a Franciscan monastery in Szemenye, dedicated to Mary the Virgin. He convened a congregatio to offer and determine the yearly amount of alms for the monks, thus Michael still owned the land itself. Later the Bánfi de Alsólendva family, descendants of the Hahót kindred through his brother Hahold III, became patron of the monastery.[5] Michael Hahót died after 1256.[9]
