Nicholas of Capraia

Nicholas of Capraia, in Italian Nicolò da Capraia or Nicolò Burgundione di Capraia (died 1274), was the judge (king) of Arborea from 1264 until 1268.

Nicholas was the son of William of Capraia and his wife of unknown name, a daughter of a Pisan notable named Ildebrandino Gualandi Cortevecchia. He had an illegitimate brother named Guglielmino. In his father's will, he left all his possessions in Sardinia to Nicholas.

In 1268, Marianus usurped the judgeship, imprisoning Nicholas in the castle of Marmilla and ignoring the rights of Guglielmino. In addition to Arborea, to which Marianus had a legitimate claim, he also usurped the third of the Kingdom of Cagliari, to which he had no claim. Nicholas died in prison in 1274 without children. Marianus was forced to recognize Nicholas's cousin Anselm as co-ruler.
