Notes


1. [GUNDIOC [Gondion] (-473). According to Gregory of Tours, Gundioc King of the Burgunds (whom he names as the father of the four sons who are named below) was "of the family of King Athanaric [of the Goths]"[6]. On the other hand, Gundobad King of Burgundy, in the Lex Gundobada, names "Gebicam, Godomarem, Gislaharium, Gundaharium, patrem quoque nostrum et patruum"[7], suggesting a direct line of Burgundian ancestors. Sécretan suggests that the two reports can be reconciled if Gundioc married the sister of Ricimer[8]. He succeeded as GUNDIOC King of the Burgundians. The Romans installed the Burgundians in Sapaudia, north of Lake Geneva, dated to 443 or 447[9]. The dating difference suggests that the migration into the area may have been a gradual process. The Burgundians were expelled from land around Lyon in 458 by Emperor Majorian, but Gundioc became magister militum in Gaul during the reign of Emperor Severus 461-465[10]. Burgundian troops helped the Romans to defend Clermont against the Visigoths in 471 and 472[11]. King Gundioc divided his territories between his four sons. m ---. The name of King Gundioc´s wife is not known. As noted above, Sécretan suggests that she may have been the sister of Ricimer[12]. The name of King Gundioc´s third son Chilperich suggests that his mother may have been related to the Merovingian Franks. King Gundioc had four children: a) GUNDOBAD [Gondebaud] (-516). b) GODEGISEL (-500). c) CHILPERICH (-murdered 486). d) GONDEMAR (-murdered 486).
