*Support- Chlothar seems to command a bare plurality of usage in the results given below but Clothar or others would be fine if a definitive work on the subject is shown to use it. —  AjaxSmack    04:14, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Based on the links, Ingund is the daughter of King Baderic, and Aregund is the sister of Ingund.  Is Aregund also the daughter of Baderic?
By extension then if they are the daughters of Baderic, and Baderic is the brother of Berthar and Berthar is the father of Radegund, doesn't that make Radegund, 2nd wife of Chlothar I, a 1st cousin to Chlothar I's 3rd wife, Ingund, and 4th wife, Aregund? These relationships are not clearly articulated on the pages for any of this famly group so I am not sure I'm interpretting this correctly.

message: This section seems dodgy, as there was no polity called "Tuscany" at the time:
:The murder of Amalasuntha, the daughter of Theodoric the Great and of Audofleda, sister of Clovis I, at the hands of the king of Tuscany, caused Chlothar to threaten invasion if he did not receive a payment. The agreement that averted the war was for the Tuscan king to send 50,000 gold coins. However, Childebert and Theudebert had it intercepted and stole the payment before it reached Chlothar and split it. Chlothar's treasury was still much larger than either's.[15]
On Amalasuntha's own page the story of her death is this:
:Now queen, Amalasuntha made her cousin Theodahad partner of her throne (not, as sometimes stated, her husband, for his wife was still living), with the intent of strengthening her position. The choice was unfortunate, for Theodahad fostered the disaffection of the Goths, and either by his orders or with his permission, Amalasuntha was imprisoned in the island of Martana in the Tuscan lake of Bolsena, where on 30 April in the spring of 534/535 she was murdered in her bath.
So I'm not sure if the "King of Tuscany" being referred to in this article, the one who paid the tribute to Clohthar, is meant to refer to the Ostrogothic king Theodahad or to some unnamed noble (who would definitely not be a king) who governed Tuscany and who perhaps was more directly responsible for Amalasuntha's murder. It makes more sense to me that it would be Theodahad, since he seems to be the one who had her killed and anyway his kingdom would've been adjacent to the Frankish realm but Tuscany wasn't. But I thought I'd ask here before I changed it.
It's also worth noting that this paragraph is bracketed here by events that happened in the 540s, implying that's when Amalasuntha was murdered, but in Amalasuntha's own article it says that she died in the 530s. This paragraph should be moved to a more chronologically approrpriate spot. --Jfruh (talk) 18:52, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
