Ramon Muntaner (1265-1336) is the author of the chronicle of the "Almogavers", which tells of the events between 1208 and 1328. In 1303, he accompanied Roger de Flor as the master book-keeper of the Grand Catalan Company until late 1307. He was responsible for the accountancy and had to administer the king’s patrimony. |

Roger de Flor (1266-1307) was a chief of the "almogavers". He was the sun of Ricard de Flor, German of origin and royal falconer for Emperor Federico II. He became a knight of the Order of the Templars and took part in the last crusade. He was killed during a banquet together with his 130 captains by order of the Emperor of Byzantine. |

Berenguer de Montpeller d'Entença succeeded Roger de Flor as the chief (Capitoste) of the "almogavers" and captained the famous, cruel Catalan Revenge against the murderers of his superior, Roger de Flor. He was killed accidentally by the men of his comrade Bernat de Rocafort. |

Bernat de Rocafort (+1309) succeeded Berenguer d'Entença, with whom he had always rivalled the leadership of the "almogavers". He was an extremely violent and bloodthirsty captain. This caused his own men to rebel and eventually turn him over to Roberto I, King of Naples. |
