Orlando Reeves According to one tale on the origin of the name of Orlando , Florida , Sentinel Orlando Reeves was an American soldier who was killed during the Seminole War , when he was about to fire a warning shot to his fellow soldiers . The real namesake was a man named Orlando Reeves , who operated a sugar mill and plantation about thirty miles north of the modern city at Spring Garden in modern Volusia County . He carved his name in a tree near what is now Lake Eola , which later settlers assumed was a grave marker . Their speculations as to the carving ' s origin led to the various accounts of Seminole War battles , and the area around the tree became known as " Orlando ' s Grave " or simply " Orlando . " There were no reported skirmishes with Seminoles in the area . The closest was at Hatcheelustee , on what is now Walt Disney World property several miles south of the city . No federal or state muster rolls list any soldier with a name similar to Orlando Reeves or Rees . An alternative explanation for the name is that one of the founders of the city was enamoured with Shakespeare , and named the city for the hero of " As You Like It " .

Christophoros Burgaris Christopher or Christophoros Burgaris was the short - tenured successor of the famous Basil Boiannes as catepan of Italy . The chronicler Lupus Protospatharius gives the date of Boiannes ' departure as 1029 , but modern historian Ferdinand Chalandon corrects this to 1027 . This synchronises with the death of Guaimar III of Salerno , though other events associated with it are known to have occurred in 1028 . Lupus , however , misplaces the election of Byzantius as archbishop of Bari , which occurred before 1025 , in this year and therefore his whole chronology for the period seems to be in error , in our manuscripts at least . Christophoros saw the recommencement of the Saracen incursions . In 1027 , Obbiano capitulated and Bari had to repel and assault . Christophoros was out of power by 1029 . He was replaced by Pothos , under whom the Saracen attacks continued .
