was married to Sgouromallini, their daughters Anthousa and Maria fought alongside their father during the course of the revolt. Sgouromallini and Anthousa were killed in its aftermath. Maria was enslaved and given to the Ottoman vizier, who in turn gifted to the teftedar of Heraklion. The latter married Maria, without forcing her to convert to Islam (according to the custom of the time) and the two moved to Constantinople. After her husband's death in 1816, Maria inherited a considerable amount of money donating to the Greek revolutionaries following the outbreak of the Greek War of Independence. Legacy Daskalogiannis was immortalized in several folk tales and songs, the most prominent of which is the celebrated epic ballad by Barba-Pantzelios, a poor cheese-maker from Mouri – To tragoudi tou Daskalogianni of 1786: …Φτάνουν στο Φραγκοκάστελο και στον πασά ποσώνου, κι εκείνος δούδει τ' όρντινο κι ευτύς τσοι ξαρματώνου. Ούλους τσοι ξαρματώσασι και τσοι μπισταγκωνίζου και τότες δα το νιώσασι πως δεν ξαναγυρίζου. ...They arrive at Frangokastello and surrender to the pasha, and he gives the order to disarm them at once. All of them were disarmed and ill at ease, for now they sensed that they would never go home. Tradition states that before Daskalogiannis and his few men made their last stand against the Ottomans, they danced the war dance Pentozalis. The international airport of Chania (CHQ/LGSA) bears Daskalogiannis' name. A memorial statue can be seen in his hometown Anopolis. One of the regular ferries in the Crete southeast routes is named the Daskalogiannis.
