The success of the First Crusade inspired Europeans to an ever greater commitment to preserve and protect the Holy Land. This Christian cause célèbre waged against Muslim occupation of Jerusalem lasted for over two centuries.

Bohemund of Taranto, Raymond IV of Toulouse and Godfrey of Bouillon led the Christian army at the Siege of Nicaea that lasted from May 14 to June 19, 1097. Their victory proved to be the turning point in First Crusader War waged against the Seljuq Turks.

The Emperor of Byzantium's daughter Anna Komnene was so smitten by the sight and presence of Bohemond I of Antioch that she wrote a detailed description of him. Of Bohemond, she wrote:

"Now [Bohemond] was such as, to put it briefly, had never before been seen in the land of the Romans [that is, Greeks], be he either of the barbarians or of the Greeks (for he was a marvel for the eyes to behold, and his reputation was terrifying). Let me describe the barbarian's appearance more particularly -- he was so tall in stature that he overtopped the tallest by nearly one cubit, narrow in the waist and loins, with broad shoulders and a deep chest and powerful arms. And in the whole build of the body he was neither too slender nor overweighted with flesh, but perfectly proportioned and, one might say, built in conformity with the canon of Polycleitus... His skin all over his body was very white, and in his face the white was tempered with red. His hair was yellowish, but did not hang down to his waist like that of the other barbarians; for the man was not inordinately vain of his hair, but had it cut short to the ears. Whether his beard was reddish, or any other colour I cannot say, for the razor had passed over it very closely and left a surface smoother than chalk... His blue eyes indicated both a high spirit and dignity; and his nose and nostrils breathed in the air freely; his chest corresponded to his nostrils and by his nostrils...the breadth of his chest. For by his nostrils nature had given free passage for the high spirit which bubbled up from his heart. A certain charm hung about this man but was partly marred by a general air of the horrible... He was so made in mind and body that both courage and passion reared their crests within him and both inclined to war. His wit was manifold and crafty and able to find a way of escape in every emergency. In conversation he was well informed, and the answers he gave were quite irrefutable. This man who was of such a size and such a character was inferior to the Emperor alone in fortune and eloquence and in other gifts of nature."

Anna's infatuation with Bohemond was not to go entirely unrequited as one of her great-great-grand nieces married one of his direct descendants.

Many scholars maintain that Bohemond was the actual driving force and leader of the First Crusade. Others maintain the real motive behind his zeal stemmed from the spoils of conquest. Be that as it may, many precious religious relics were never again seen in Jerusalem after his departure.
