The first well-documented member of the family is [[Tancred of Hauteville]], petty lord of [[Hauteville-la-Guichard]]. Tancred had many sons by his two wives, Muriella and [[Fressenda]], and his small patrimony was hardly enough to accommodate all of his children.

Roger's son and successor was [[William I of Sicily|William I the Bad]]. His nickname derives primarily from his lack of popularity within the chroniclers, who supported the baronial revolts that William crushed. In 1166 he was succeded by his son [[William II of Sicily|William II the Good]], who was still a minor. During his regency, that lasted until 1166, the real was subject to turmoils, which almost broke it apart. Eventually peace won, and William II’s reign is remembered as peaceful and prosperous.

William II died without heirs in 1189, and there was a succession dispute. William’s only legitimate heir was his aunt [[Constance, Queen of Sicily|Constance]], but she had married [[Henry VI, Holy Roman Emperor|Emperor Henry VI]], and Sicilian officials didn’t want a German ruler. An illegitimate cousin of William, [[Tancred, King of Sicily|Tancred of Lecce]], seized the throne. He initially had to fight against a revolt of [[Roger of Andria]], a former contender. In 1190 he managed to kill him, and in 1191 he was able to repel an invasion of Constance and Henry VI. After he died in 1194, however, the kingdom passed to Constance anyway, and was afterwards ruled by the [[Hohenstaufen]]. Constance and Henry’s son and successor was [[Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor|Emperor Frederick II]].

The Hauteville family (Italian: Altavilla, Sicilian: Autaviḍḍa) was a Norman family, originally of petty lords, from the Cotentin Peninsula in Normandy.[7]

The Hautevilles rose to prominence through their part in the Norman conquest of southern Italy. In 1130, Roger II of Hauteville, was made the first King of Sicily. His male-line descendants ruled the kingdom until 1194. The Hauteville also took part in the First Crusade and ruled of the independent Principality of Antioch (1098).[8]

Origins

[edit]

Tradition traces the family’s origins to Hiallt, a 10th-century Viking who supposedly founded the village of Hialtus villa, from which the family’s name originates.[9][10][11] Hiallt, however, is probably just a legendary eponymous ancestor: the Latin form of Hauteville, Altavilla, simply means "high estate".[11]

The first well-documented member of the family is Tancred of Hauteville, petty lord of Hauteville-la-Guichard. Tancred had many sons by his two wives, Muriella and Fressenda, and his small patrimony was hardly enough to accommodate all of his children. They were thus forced to seek fortune elsewhere, namely in Southern Italy.[8]

Southern Italy

[edit]
See also: Norman conquest of southern Italy

William Iron Arm and Drogo were the first of Tancred’s sons to arrive in Southern Italy, sometime around 1035. They distinguished themselves in a rebellion against the Byzantines, and in 1042 William Iron Arm was named the first Count of Apulia. In 1046 he was succeded by Drogo, whose titles were confirmed by Emperor Henry III. Drogo was succeded by another brother, Humphrey, who in 1053 defeated Pope Leo IX in the Battle of Civitate, strengthening the Hautevilles’ power.[8]

Humphrey was succeded by a fourth brother, Robert Guiscard. In 1059, Robert was made the first Duke of Apulia and Calabria, and also Lord of Sicily, by Pope Nicholas II. Together with his younger brother, Roger I, he started the to conquer Sicily, at the time occupied by the Saracens. Guiscard was succeded by his son Roger Borsa, which in turn was succeded by his son William II. When William died childless, all of the Hauteville family’s domains were inherited by Roger II, son of Roger I.[8][12]

Kingdom of Sicily

[edit]

After unifying all of the Hauteville family’s domains, Roger II supported Antipope Anacletus II, and on Christmas of 1130, he was made King of Sicily. Roger spent the majority of his first decade of reign fending off invaders and suppressing rebellions. In 1139, with the Treaty of Mignano, his kingship was recognized by the legitimate Pope, Innocent II. Through the actions of his admiral George of Antioch, Roger also proceeded to conquer the Mahdia, taling the unofficial title of “King of Africa”.

Roger's son and successor was William I the Bad. His nickname derives primarily from his lack of popularity within the chroniclers, who supported the baronial revolts that William crushed. In 1166 he was succeded by his son William II the Good, who was still a minor. During his regency, that lasted until 1166, the real was subject to turmoils, which almost broke it apart. Eventually peace won, and William II’s reign is remembered as peaceful and prosperous.

William II died without heirs in 1189, and there was a succession dispute. William’s only legitimate heir was his aunt Constance, but she had married Emperor Henry VI, and Sicilian officials didn’t want a German ruler. An illegitimate cousin of William, Tancred of Lecce, seized the throne. He initially had to fight against a revolt of Roger of Andria, a former contender. In 1190 he managed to kill him, and in 1191 he was able to repel an invasion of Constance and Henry VI. After he died in 1194, however, the kingdom passed to Constance anyway, and was afterwards ruled by the Hohenstaufen. Constance and Henry’s son and successor was Emperor Frederick II.

Crusades

[edit]

The eldest son of Robert Guiscard, Bohemond, didn’t inherit the majority of his father possessions because he wasn’t consider legitimate, as his parents’ marriage was annulled for consanguinity. He thus had find land elsewhere. In 1097 he joined a band of Crusaders, on their way to the first Crusade, along with his nephew, Tancred of Galilee. Bohemond took the city of Antioch, and remained there for the duration of the Crusade, carving out the independent Principality of Antioch for himself. He was succeded by his son Bohemond II, who in turn was succeded by his daughter Constance, who ruled the principality until 1163. Bohemond’s nephew, Tancred, also had luck in carving the Principality of Galilee, a vassal fief of the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

Cadet branches

[edit]

Different Italian noble families are scions of the House of Hauteville. Among these, there are the Gesualdo family [it],[4] the Rosso family [it],[5] and the Guarna / Avarna family [it].[1][2][3]

Supposed members of the House of Hauteville also appear in England. According to Goffredo Malaterra, one of Tancred’s sons, Aubrey or Alverard, remained in Normandy. The Domesday Book, written in 1086, records that a certain Aluericus Halsvilla had previously held lands in Compton Martin, in the County of Somerset. His kinsman, Ralf Halsvilla is mentioned as a tenant in Burbage and Wolfhall, in Wiltshire.[citation needed]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The name Frumentinus bears resemblance to the name Hubertus. Frumentin and Hubert may thus be the same person[16]
  2. ^ The Annales of Romuald Guarna state that Tancred had three daughters, but without naming them or stating by which marriage they were born. One of these daughters is the Fressenda named above. One of the two remaining daughters is sometimes given the name Beatrice, and has been erroneously identified as the mother of Geoffrey, Count of Conversano. All of the informations regarding her are dubious[18][19]
  3. ^ The Gesta Roberti Wiscardi names, in order. "Gosfridus, Gocelinus, Abagelardus" as sons of "Unfredi"[20]
  4. ^ The Gesta Roberti Wiscardi names, in order. "Gosfridus, Gocelinus, Abagelardus" as sons of "Unfredi"[21]
  5. ^ In some instances, Emma is given as Robert's sister rather than his daughter. Guibert of Nogent, however, calls her son, Tancred of Galilee, the nephew of Bohemond I of Antioch, thus making her a daughter of Robert Guiscard. From a chronological perspective, it is also more probable that Emma was Guiscard's daughter.[16]
  6. ^ Sometimes given the name Héria[16]
  7. ^ John Julius Norwich identifies the Emma who married William of Auvergne and the Emma who married Rudolf of Montescaglioso as two different daughters of Roger I who bore the same name.
  8. ^ (this daughter of Roger I is called Felicia in the Europäische Stammtafeln, but other sources do not give her name. She is also sometimes mistakenly called Busilla, but this is thought to be a misinterpretation of the French word pucelle, meaning young lady or virgin.[16])
  9. ^ Patrick van Kerrebrouck says that her name could be Sibylla and that she was born from Roger’s third marriage. However, chronologically, it is more probable that she was born from Roger’s second marriage[16]
  10. ^ this daughter is only named in one source[22]
  11. ^ Robert possibly had offsprings who were also counts of Loritello, but the sources for their parentage remain obscure[16]
  12. ^ the primary source for her name is not known[16]
  13. ^ died young[16]
  14. ^ died young[16]
  15. ^ died young[16]
  16. ^ Amatus of Montecassino records that Robert Guiscard pursued "Abelard and Gradilon, the husband of his sister" after the former's rebellion in 1078[24]
  17. ^ lived three months[16]
  18. ^ Rocco Pirri records her as this Geoffrey's daughter. Carlo Alberto Garufi, on the other hand, records her as daughter of a certain Geoffrey of Lecce, Count of Montescaglioso.[16]
  19. ^ died an infant[15]
  20. ^ The claim for these two daughters exsisting is made in Snorri Sturluson's Heimskringla, which records: "William king of Sicily…had three daughters…his second daughter married the Duke of Kipr [ Isaac Komnenos of Cyprus ]...his third daughter, Margaret, was married to the chief of the corsairs [a certain Margaritone, admiral of Sicily]". However, the Heimskringla also records that William had no sons, and that a daughter of his married an "emperor Henry who killed his brothers in law". Therefore, it can't be trusted.[16]
  21. ^ predeceased his father[16]
  22. ^ Valdrada is only named in one source, “The dogaressas of Venice” by Edgcumbe Staley[25]
  23. ^ this daughter is only named in one source[26]
