About Flávio Teodósio de Coimbra

Lived 790 – 810 (aged 19–20).

Flávio Teodósio, also known as Flávio Thiodo or Flávio Teudo (c. 740 – 805) was a nobleman and 4th Count of Coimbra.

Background Coimbra, an important strategic and cultural center in what is now Portugal, had fallen under Muslim control following the Umayyad invasion of the Iberian Peninsula in the early 8th century. However, like many other cities in early Al-Andalus, it also had a significant Christian population (known as Mozarabs), who were allowed to maintain their faith in exchange for paying the jizya (a tax levied on non-Muslims).

Title The use of "count" in Flávio Teodosio's title, a remnant of Visigothic nobility, reflects the continuation of older Roman and Gothic administrative traditions in the city. The title is mentioned in the documentation of a donation that Flávio Teodósio himself made to Lorvão Abbey. In these documents he signed himself as "''Theoddus Comes Christianorum".

Teodorico (c. 758 – c. 809), successor Ataulfo, bishop of Iria Flávio Hermenegildo (c. 768 – c. 831), successor after Teodorico Mencia or Menaya Ausenda, wife of Bermudo I
