Check: W. Miller, "Essays on the Latin Orient", Cambridge U. Press,
1980, NY.

"Franks", "Germanics", and "Latins" are actually interchangable terms
for the period under consideration (Middle Ages).

I have seen such a use of the terms, in relation to Eastern Medi-
terranean innumerable times. The above mentioned book is my easiest
exact reference.
