dc.description.abstractIn the year 1096, October 18, the armies of the First Crusade were in the vicinity of Antioch. Instead of immediately attacking the city, they decided to besiege it and wait till further development of the events. As time passed, however, their food supply got shorter, and the fear of the famine supervened. Prices went high. Many were dispatched to help the Crusaders, among which there were Armenian princes and monks from Cilicia, among which there were Armenian princes and monks from Cilicia. The local Christian population - Armenians and Assyrians also tried to help them. They succeeded in buying foodstuff from various places, and bringing it to the Crusaders; but the prices were too high; so only the very rich among the Crusaders were able to buy the food. Concerning this Steven Runciman writes: "Their (Armenians' and Assyrians' Y.H.K.)" motive was not philanthropy but gain." (A History of the Crusades, Vol. I, London, 1965, p. 221). Presenting the period and the conditions in their entirety, and relying on the givens of the chroniclers, this study proves that Steven Runciman is mistaken in this conclusion, and that, not the Armenians exploited the Crusaders, but the latter are led astray in their own judgments and have found themselves confronted with the unexpected.
