The House of Damalas (Greek: Δαμαλάς) is a Genoese-Byzantine noble House established in the late 15th century, with roots
originating from the island of Chios during the Genoese occupation.Created as a result of intermarriages among the Imperial
House of Palaiologos with the Genoese noble House of Zaccaria. There is also an unrelated Byzantine family named Damalas/Damalis,
which is seen as early as 1230 in the Thracesian Theme of the Eastern Roman Empire. Descendants of this unrelated family were
also settled in Chios as well as Kos.
