Sinka Sebesi

Sinka led a military unit and successfully recovered the estate, while captured Wytk and burned the Bohemian lord's nearby fort.

In that year, Andrew confiscated Tamási in Szepes County (today Spišské Tomášovce in Slovakia) from George Baksa and his brothers because of their "disloyalty", as they "ravaged the realm" and "captured and wounded" Wytk, the royal castellan of Sáros.

The historian suggested that Wytk unlawfully tried to extend his influence over Sóvár by abusing the power of his position, but George Baksa and his nephew Sinka successfully repulsed the attack.

[6] During that time, Sinka already owned the nearby Sebeskő Castle (today Šebeš, ruins near Podhradík, Slovakia), after which his descendants derived their family name.

[6] In the next year, Andrew III donated Ásgút (present-day Podhorany in Slovakia) to Sinka, excluding the village from the jurisdiction of the ispán of Sáros County.

[3] In August 1314, George's son John confirmed his father's donation to Sinka, but he has earmarked the annual income of the salt in a lower amount (30 marks).

In November 1317, John and his brother Peter, and their cousins Ladislaus and Doncs requested Charles I to confirm the donation with the annual amount of 60 marks.

[8] After the death of Andrew III and the extinction of the Árpád dynasty in 1301, Sinka supported the claim of Charles of Anjou in the emerging civil war, following the Baksas' political orientation.

Albeit the fort of Nyék was occupied for a short time, a relief army of the Kőszegis recovered the castle and the royal campaign ended in failure.

[9] After the death of the most powerful oligarch Matthew Csák in March 1321, Charles' army invaded the deceased lord's province, which soon disintegrated because most of his former castellans yielded without resistance.
