Guy of Ibelin (French: Guy d'Ibelin) (before 1306 - 1350/60) was seneschal of Cyprus from 1318 and a burgher of Venice from 30 December 1334.[1] He was the son of Philip of Ibelin (1253–1318), previous seneschal of Cyprus and Jerusalem by his second wife Maria Embriaco of Giblet (d. 1331).[2] He was evidently held in high regard by King Hugh IV of Cyprus, since he is named in a royal decree from 1329 as a "magnificus vir" , in charge of four newly created priesthoods in the cathedral of Nicosia.[3]
