• Notes

  Rigunth was the daughter of King Chilperic of Soissons and QueenFredegund who was promised to King Recared I of the Visigoths. She wasnever married to him, however, and was sent to exil in Spain. In 584, hermother, now in control of Soissons, called her back and she lived therest of her life in the court there. The fights between her and hermother are said to have often gotten near fatal (Gregory of Tours tellsof a time when Fredegund nearly choked her to death after shutting herhead in the lid of a chest and sitting on it with all her might!).
