Research Notes:
One example of the blood links cooked up in these unreliable late-medieval and Renaissance genealogies centers on the son of Leovigild's son Hermengild (d. 586) by Chilperic II's dau. Ingunda. We know that this son, Athanagild, existed, but what became of him is unknown; we don't in fact know if he even survived to adulthood. The later genealogies, however, have him wandering as far afield as Constantinople, where he supposedly married an imperial lady named Flavia Juliana, by whom he had a son, Artabasto. This last fellow returned to Spain, married a distant cousin Glaswinda (an otherwise-unknown dau. of King Chindaswinth) and became the father of King Ervigio r. 680-87. Ervigio becomes father-in-law of King Egica r. 687-701, and father of Duke Pedro of Cantabria, supposedly father of Alfonso I of the Asturias r. 739-56.
At least the dates fit, but there's not a shred of evidence to support it. [Ref: John Carmi Parsons SGM 9/18/1998]
