    Anna Diogenissa (b. before 1075), was a 12th-century Grand Princess consort of Serbia, a Byzantine noblewoman of the Diogenes house who married Uroš I Vukanovic, the Grand Prince of Serbia (ca. 1112–1145), by whom she had five children including the successor to the principality, Uroš II.
    Family and marriage

    Anna Diogenissa was born in the Byzantine capital Constantinople sometime before or, at the latest, nine months after the death of her father Constantine Diogenes at Antioch in 1074.[1] Her mother was Theodora Komnene, a daughter of the powerful noblewoman Anna Dalassena and John Komnenos, and hence sister to the future emperor Alexios I Komnenos (r. 1081–1118).[1] Her paternal grandparents were Romanos IV Diogenes (r. 1068–1071) and Anna of Bulgaria.

    It is not recorded when Anna married Uroš I, the Grand Župan of Rascia, who reigned from 1112/1115 to 1131/1145. It most likely took place during Uroš' captivity in Byzantium, where he had been sent as a hostage by his uncle Vukan following the capture of Lipljan in 1094 by the troops of Alexios I Komnenos. Uroš is credited with having unified most of the Serbian territories after retaking them from Byzantine occupation. Rascia was the first independent state of the Serbs which had been formed in the 8th century.

    Together they had at least five children. There is not much information in the available sources on the life of Anna Diogenissa, and this lack includes the date of her death. Charles Cawley in his Medieval Lands derived what little information he has from Europäische Stammtafeln.
  • A child of Constantine Diogenes and Theodora Komnenos
