About Bilichildis
Lived 600 – 610. Bilichildis was a consort.
Bilichild (died 610) was a queen of Austrasia by marriage to Theudebert II.
She was bought from the slave market by Brunhilda of Austrasia. In 1979, Alfred Friese hypothesised that she was related to Duke Gisulf I of Friuli, whose two daughters were captured and enslaved, only for one to be married to a Bavarian prince and the other to an Alaman prince. This hypothesis was then disproven by Christian Settipani.
Even if she was of "low origin" (which could otherwise be a concern for a queen), she was loved by her subjects.
