	Huon of Bordeaux
		Huon of Bordeaux is the title character of a 13th century French romance (chanson de geste).
		The godfather of Huon may safely be identified with Seguin, who was count of Bordeaux under Louis the Pious in 839, and died fighting against the Normans six years later.
		The tale was dramatized and produced in Paris by the Confrérie de la Passion in 1557, and in Philip Henslowe[?]'s diary there is a note of a performance of a play, Hewen of Burdocize, on December 28, 1593.

	Charlemagne - LoveToKnow 1911
		It was useless to attempt to avenge this disaster, which occurred on the 15th of August 778, for the enemy disappeared as quickly as he came; the incident has passed from the domain of history into that of legend and romance, being associated by tradition with the pass of Roncesvalles.
		In the earlier chansons de geste he is invariably a majestic figure and represents within limitations the grandeur of the historic Charles.
		The wars of Charlemagne with his vassals are described in Girart de Roussillon, Renaus de Montauban, recounting the deeds of the four sons of Aymon, Huon de Bordeaux, and in the latter part of the Chevalerie Ogier, which belong properly to the cycle connected with Doon of Mayence.

		“It is Huon of Bordeaux,” said the traitor Amaury, “who has massacred your son before it was in my power to defend him.” Charlemagne, furious at these words, seized a sword, and flew to the apartment of the two brothers to plunge it into the heart of the murderer of his son.
		The peers assembled to hear his testimony, and the traitor accused Huon of Bordeaux of having struck the fatal blow without allowing Charlot an opportunity to defend himself, and though he knew that his opponent was the Emperor’s eldest son.
