Biography
-
According to the historian Gregory of Tours, Theuderic I, King of the Franks at Metz, married a daughter of the Burgundian king Sigismund. He does however not mention the name of this wife. The wife of Theuderic is often identified with the queen Suavegotha mentioned by the 10th century chronicler Flodoard.[2]
-
In 523, the sons of Clovis I invaded Burgundy. King Sigismund was captured by Chlodomer, King of the Franks at Orléans, and subsequently killed.[3]
-
According to Flodoard, Suavegotha had a daughter named Theudechild. According to the German historian Eugen Ewig, Suavegotha was the wife of Theuderich, and the daughter of Sigismund's second wife, whose name is unknown but it's more likely that her mother was actually Sigismund's first wife Ostrogotho. Therefore, she was the granddaughter of Theodoric the Great, King of the Ostrogothic Kingdom of Italy and niece of Gundobad, King of Burgundy. Theuderic died in 534.
