A prosopographical note on the Hikanatoi of Byzantium: from military term to family surname

Perhaps no other term/name in the Byzantine Empire ever linked so closely a military term with a family surname, as that of the hikanatoii/Hikanatoi, from the early ninth century onwards, until well within the later Byzantine period. In that sense, while the first part of the term’s history is mostly studied by military historians, its eventual evolution into a family surname (most probably from the first part of the eleventh century) is the work of the prosopographer/genealogist.
