Topic: Hunald of Aquitaine


In the News (Wed 23 Dec 09)

  
  Aquitaine - LoveToKnow 1911
Odo was succeeded by his son Hunald, who after carrying on a war against the Franks under Pippin the Short, retired to a convent, leaving both the kingdom and the conflict to Waifer, or Guaifer.
In 781 Charlemagne bestowed Aquitaine upon his young son, Louis, and as Louis was generally described as a king, Aquitaine is referred to during the Carolingian period as a kingdom, and not as a duchy.
Aquitaine as it came to the English kings stretched as of old from the Loire to the Pyrenees, but its extent was curtailed on the south-east by the wide lands of the counts of Toulouse.

 The Development of Southern French and Catalan Society, 718-1050
True, Aquitaine and Provence, which were menaced by this Moslem invasion, were nominally part of the Frankish domains he ruled as mayor of the palace; and true also, Eudes, duke of Aquitaine and a partisan of some of the later Merovingians, was hostile to him and his pretensions.
Hunald was succeeded peacefully in 745 by his son Waiffre, and Charles' heirs who succeeded him in the same year made no attempt to disturb the status quo.
Thus in Aquitaine the submission of Eudes to Charles Mattel in 732 did not mean a Carolingian Aquitaine, but a tie, fragile in nature, made necessary by Eudes' defeat at the hands of the Moslems.

In the South, the Arabs of Septimania recovered their hopes of effecting an invasion; and Hunald, duke of Aquitaine, who had succeeded his father Eudes after his death i n 735, made a fresh attempt to break away from Frankish sovereignty and win his independence.

 The genealogy of the Perillos family
The County of Toulouse was one of the principal territories which sometimes extended throughout Aquitaine, or a major part of the Languedoc and even territories on the other side of the Rhone.
There is nothing mythical or impossible about this – the real question is whether the Perillos were indeed descendents from Torson, and how close they were to the hereditary line of the family.
Torson himself descended from Boggis, his son Eudes I the Great, Eudes II, Hunald, Mansion, who was the former’s second child and the father of Torson, also known as Chorson and Torsion.

This seems to be the last time that the House was forced to migrate since Waifre (Gaifre) was assassinated in 768 whilst engaged in guerrilla warfare against Pepin the Short.
Waifre, Duke of Aquitaine, will like his grandfather Eudo and father Hunald (having then retired into a monastery in 745), be remembered for their efforts in trying to keep their kingdom of Aquitaine and Gascony free from the Mohammedans (Saracens) and semi-independent from the Franks.

 Lupo II of Gascony - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is often claimed that Lop II was related to dukes Odo of Aquitaine and Hunald of Aquitaine, some people even saying that Lop II was the son of Duke Odo, but this is not true, as no medieval document telling us the family of Lop II has survived.
In 769, a final rising of the Aquitainians against Charlemagne and Carloman was put down and the rebel, Hunald (either the same Hunald as above or another), was forced to flee to the court of Lop in Gascony.
Lop, however, did not desire to bring down upon himself the wrath of the Frankish kings and handed Hunald over to Charlemagne.
