H. KINGS of OSSETIA (ALANIA)

1. --- . King of Ossetia. m ---. [Three] children:

• a) DURGHULEL . ....
• b) [ALDA] . The Georgian Chronicle (13th century) records that "Georgi" died leaving "two sons Bagrat and Demetre and two daughters", a later passage stating that Demetre was born "not of the same mother" as Bagrat[307]. As no record has been found to indicate that King Giorgi repudiated his wife named Mariam, it is assumed that the mother of Demetre was therefore the king's concubine. The question of her identity is less certain. Her possible name and origin are indicated by Cedrenus who records that "Alda, Georgii Abasgorum regali quondam uxor, gente Alana" submitted to Emperor Romanos Argyros and brought "Anacuphen", dated to [1033][308]. However, this must have been at the same time as the alleged visit to Constantinople of Mariam, mother of King Bagrat IV and the other reported wife of King Giorgi, from which she returned with a wife for her son. As noted in the Introduction to this document, references in Byzantine sources to the "Alans" often refer to Georgians (see, for example, the references to the alleged "Alan" origin of Maria, wife of Emperor Mikhael VII, who is assumed to have been the daughter of King Bagrat IV, see below). It seems likely that there was only one visit to Constantinople around this time by one widow of King Giorgi and that the reference in Skylitzes is to Mariam's visit. The Georgian Chronicle (18th century) names "un autre fils du roi Giorgi, né d'une seconde femme, fille du roi des Osses…encore très jeune…Démétré"[309]. It is assumed that this reference can be traced to the indirect allusion to King Giorgi's concubine which can be deduced from the Georgian Chronicle (13th century) quoted above, supplemented by the additional information provided by Skylitzes, so it is doubtful whether this source has any additional historical value on this point.

Alda or Alde was an 11th-century Alan princess and the second wife of King George I of Georgia (r. 1014–1027). The couple had a son, Demetre, who played a notable role in the civil unrest of Georgia during the reign of his half-brother Bagrat IV.[1]
