Jimeno Of Pamplona
Jimeno (Ximeno) I, (not to be confused with the 8th century Jimeno the Strong ()), was the 9th century father of García Jiménez of Pamplona. In spite of various biographical details having been created, there are no unambiguous records of his existence except in the patronymics of his sons, García and Íñigo ''Jiménez'', indicating a father named Jimeno. In 850, the French court received envoys from ''Induo'' and ''Mitio'', "dukes of the Navarrese", and it has been supposed that these names represent those of Íñigo Arista of Pamplona, Íñigo Arista and Jimeno, but Sánchez Albornoz argued against the latter identification. Likewise it has been suggested that, like his son, he may have been ruler of "another part of the kingdom" of Pamplona, or even that he was regent of the entire kingdom (for which there is no evidence). The location of his hypothetical principality has been placed around Álava, where a count Vela Jiménez, traditionally thought to have been his son (again ...
