Note on Husband: Garcia + JIMINEZ

García Jiménez (or García II) was (sub- or co-)king of a part of Pamplona in the late 9th century.

 

The Jiménez dynasty that would later rule the kingdom of Navarre apparently originally held a territory within that realm distinct from that held by the descendants of Iñigo Arista. García presumably succeeded his father during the lifetime of García Íñiguez, and is listed by the Códice de Roda as being of "another part of the kingdom" of Pamplona.

 

By a popular reconstruction, when King García I supposedly died in 870 while his son and heir Fortún Garcés was imprisoned in Córdoba, García Jiménez is said to have become uncontested regent of the kingdom until he was killed at Aybar (882) in a battle against the Emir of Córdoba. However, there is evidence that García Íñiguez was still living at the time of his son's return in 880, and it may well have been that monarch who was killed in 882. In fact, there is no documentary evidence of García Jiménez playing any role in the government of the greater kingdom.

 

The Roda Codex shows García Jiménez to have married twice, firstly to Oneca, "Rebel of Sangüesa" with whom he had two children:

 

Íñigo, called 'king' in the Roda Codex when reporting his marriage to a granddaughter of Fortún Garcés of Pamplona, but not in his own entry as son of García Jiménez. He perhaps succeeded to his father's sub-kingdom.

Sancha, married as her first husband Íñigo Fortúnez, son of Fortún Garcés of Pamplona, and subsequently remarried to Galindo Aznárez II, Count of Aragon.

 

García Jiménez married secondly Dadildis de Pallars, sister of count Raymond I of Pallars and Ribagorza, having by her two sons:

 

Sancho, later sole king of Pamplona.

Jimeno, king in succession to Sancho.
