Basinus II, king of the Thüringians

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisinus

Bisinus (sometimes shortened to Bisin) was the king of Thuringia in the 5th century AD or around 500. He is the earliest historically attested ruler of the Thuringians. Almost nothing more about him can be said with certainty, including whether all the variations on his name in the sources refer to one or two different persons. His name is given as Bysinus, Bessinus or Bissinus in Frankish sources, and as Pissa, Pisen, Fisud or Fisut in Lombard ones.[1]

 History

Bisinus was the first husband of Menia,[2] a fact attested only in the 9th-century Historia Langobardorum codicis Gothani.[3][4] He had a daughter, Raicunda, who became the first wife of the Lombard king Wacho (c. 510–540),[5] a fact attested in all three of the main Lombard chronicles (two of which specify that he was king of the Thuringians).[6][7][8] Menia later married a man (unnamed in the sources) of the Gausus family and became the mother of Audoin, who in 540 became the regent of Wacho's son by his third wife, Walthari, and then succeeded him to the throne in 546.[2]

Bisinus was also the father of the three brothers who ruled Thuringia in the 520s and 530s: Hermanafrid, Bertachar and Baderich.[9] Bertachar had a daughter, Radegund, who founded Holy Cross Abbey in Poitiers and was recognised as a saint. She died in 587. Two hagiographies of her were produced by her friends Baudovinia and Venantius Fortunatus.[10][11] Fortunatus specifies that she was "from the Thuringian region", a daughter of King Bertachar and granddaughter of King Bisinus.[12]

While most scholars accept that the Thuringian kings called Bisinus in the Frankish sources and Pissa in the Lombard ones are one and the same, Martina Hartmann rejects the identification and points out that the Prosopography of the Later Roman Empire makes no such identification either.[13]

Hackett. pp. 560–566. p. 564, presents a genealogical reconstruction in which Bisinus married first Basina and had his sons by her before marrying Menia, by whom he had Radegund, who is presented as his daughter rather than granddaughter.

m MENIA ---. The Historia Langobardorum names "mater…Audoin…Menia uxor fuit Pissæ regis"[149]. This wording suggests that "Pissæ regis" was not the father of Audoin, presumably Menia's second husband. It is assumed that "Pissæ" indicates that he was king of a tribe of that name.

Ben M. Angel notes: A user proposed Zülpich as the death location. This apparently was the location of a major battle in either 496 or 506 between the Franks and the Alemannii (the Battle of Tolbiac), in which the Alemannii were defeated. However, there was no participation by the Thuringii, a barbarian people that had Basinus as their king. As this appears to be a mix-up between barbarian people histories, I've deleted the reference on his death location, and placed it within the confines of his kingdom - more likely to be accurate.

NOTE:- It was Hermanfried who died in Zulpich, pushed off a wall by Theodoric when he failed to keep his promise of sharing the kingdom, it really wasn't an accident, it was murder. Basinus probably did die in his kingdom as he died before his sons.

According to Gregory of Tours, he supplied refuge from Childeric I, the Frankish king who was exiled by his own people. His wife, Basina, left him for Childeric and the two returned to Tournai together, after eight years.

The historical Bisinus bears some resemblance to the Bisinus of Gregory, but the details are different. Bisinus was the leader of a Thuringian confederation on the Rhine and his wife was a Lombard named Menia. He left three sons, Baderic, Herminafred, and Berthachar, who inherited the throne from him. His daughter Radegund married the Lombard king Wacho.

Bisinus was our ancestor through two distinct lines of descent--through his son Baderic and his son Hermanafrid, each of whom was independently our ancestor.

After a vicious battle near Tournai, he and Childeric, went into seclusion. It's here that his wife Basina leaves him and returns to Belgium with Childeric.

According to Gregory of Tours, he supplied refuge to Childeric I, the Frankish king who was exiled by his own people. Bisinus's wife, Basina, left him for Childeric and the two returned to Tournai together, after eight years.
