Kulin

Kulin

▪ ruler of Bosnia

died 1204, or after

      ruler of Bosnia from about 1180 as ban, or viceroy, of the king of Hungary.

      During Kulin's rule, Hungarian influence dwindled and Bosnia functioned as a largely independent state. The country also enjoyed a period of peace and relative prosperity through increased trade. From the 1190s a number of regional rulers and Roman Catholic church leaders, most of whom had ulterior political motives, accused Kulin of sheltering Bogomil heretics in his domain. Some even claimed that the Bosnians had adopted Bogomilism on a large scale. In response, Kulin called a special church council at Bolino Polje in 1203, at which Bosnian church leaders affirmed the authority of the pope and committed themselves to a series of reforms correcting lax religious practices.
