'''Guido II Embriaco''' or '''Guido II of Gibelet''' (d. 1282 in [[Enfeh|Nephin]]) was "Lord (Signore) of Gib(e)let" or "Gibelletto" (r. 1271−1282), the modern and historic [[Byblos]] in [[Lebanon]]. He belonged to the [[Embriaco family]].<ref></ref>
==Biography==
Guido II was the son of [[Henry I Embriaco]] (d. c. 1271) and Isabelle d'Ibelin, daughter of [[Balian of Beirut]]. In 1271, he became the Lord of Gibelet, after his father.
He was a former vassal of [[Bohemond VII]] in [[Byblos]], before he kidnapped the daughter of [[Hugh l'Aleman (died before 1241)|Hugh l'Aleman]] to marry her to his brother Jean (Giovanni), which caused a dispute with Bohemond VII, who intended to marry her to the nephew of Barthélémy Mansel ([[:es:Bartolomé Mansel|es]]), bishop of Tortosa, and then fled to the [[Knights Templar|Templars]].
Grievances between them had led to enmity and this was part of a larger trade war between [[Republic of Genoa|Genoa]] and the [[Republic of Venice|Venetians]].<ref name="Northrup"></ref>
The Templars led by [[William of Beaujeu]] sought to unseat Bohemond VII by supporting Guido II Embriaco. Bohemond VII responded by sacking the Templar house in Tripoli and forests at Montroque. This action led to indecisive fighting over the following months in 1277–1278 at [[Botron]], [[Enfeh|Fort Nephin]], [[Sidon]] and at sea, in which Guido II initially managed to defeat Bohemond VII.
In 1282, Guido II Embriaco and the Templars were ambushed in [[Tripoli, Lebanon|Tripoli]]. Guido II Embriaco, his brothers and cousins were imprisoned at Fort Nephin and left to starve. His followers were blinded. The Templars were summarily executed.<ref></ref>
==Marriage and issue==
Guido II married Margaret Grenier of Sidon, daughter of [[Julian Grenier]], [[Lord of Sidon]]. They had four children:
#Maria ([[:es:María Embriaco|es]]) (d. [[Nicosia]] 1331/4, buried there), married c. 1295 [[Philip of Ibelin (died 1318)|Philip of Ibelin]], [[Officers of the Kingdom of Cyprus#Seneschal|Seneschal of Cyprus]]
#Catherine, married Jean of Antioch
#[[Peter Embriaco of Giblet|Peter]], last prince of the House of Gibelet
#Silvestre
