Warnachar I.

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Warnachar I. († 600) was a Burgundian nobleman and house man .

Presumably he was of Germanic - Franconian descent and served as Merovingian ambassador to Byzantium around the year 570 . In 596 he became Theuderich II's first house manager in the sub-kingdom of Burgundy and held this post, which was called subreguli or rectores palatü , until his death in 600 . He is the father of Warnachar II , who later became the house master.

Christian Settipani suspects that an ancestor of Warnachar was one of the signatories of the Burgundian collection of laws (Loi Gombette, Lex Burgundionum ). There a certain Garnier signed . By shifting the sound it can be assumed that the names are identical.
