4. [SICHELGARDA . Stasser proposes that the wife of Transmundo [I] was the daughter of Landulf IV Prince of Capua and Benevento[1603]. He highlights the Chronica Monasterii Casinensis, which records "Trasmundus Teatinus comes et marchio propinquus eiusdem principes" besieging Capua after the death of Landenolf II Prince of Capua and Benevento[1604], and suggests that the relationship "propinquus" is best explained if Transmundo´s mother was the dead prince´s paternal aunt. Her marriage is confirmed by a charter in the Chronicon Vulturnense, dated Nov 1011, which records a donation by "Transmundus comes" for the souls of "…quondam Transmundi…genitor meus et…Sikelgardæ quæ fuit genitricis …"[1605].
