Maio of Bari

Maio endowed the church of San Cataldo, Palermo, one of the last Arabesque Latin churches in Norman Sicily. Its interior is now stripped of its adornments.

Maio of Bari (Italian: Maione da Bari) (died 10 November 1160) was the third of the great admirals of Sicily and the most important man in the Norman kingdom of Sicily during the reign of William I (1154–66). Lord Norwich calls him "one of the most influential statesmen in Europe."
