Mikod Kökényesradnót
Hungarian nobleman
Mikod (II) from the kindred Kökényesradnót (Hungarian: Kökényesradnót nembeli (II.) Mikod; died 1298) was a Hungarian baron and soldier in the second half of the 13th century. He served as Ban of Severin from 1275 to 1276.
He was a staunch supporter of Stephen V of Hungary. He acquired several landholdings in Transylvania due to his military and political service since the 1250s. The influential Dobokai family ascended from him.
Family
Mikod (also Mikud or Mykud) was born into the gens (clan) Kökényesradnót, which initially possessed landholdings in the southeastern part of Nógrád County. According to the 14th-century Illuminated Chronicle, the ancestors of the kindred – Kökényes (Kyquin) and Radnót (Reynold) – were of Hispanic origin, who "came to Hungary with Queen Margaret, the wife of King Béla I of Hungary" in the 11th century. Whereas no such queen is known, the majority of historians considered that the two French or Spanish knights arrived to Hungary with Margaret of France, the second spouse of Béla III of Hungary in the 1180s.
Mikod (II) was the son of Mikod (I), whose activity is unknown. He also had a brother Emeric, who had a son John and a daughter Catherine, the wife of the influential lord Egidius Monoszló.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Mikod Kökényesradnót” as hungarian nobleman. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as hungarian nobleman. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q108577949. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1298, 1275 and 1276.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
