Goltregoda of Cerdanya explained

Goltregoda of Cerdanya (920-963) was countess consort of Pallars by marriage to Lope I of Pallars and regent of the County of Pallars in 948-953 during the minority of her sons Borrell I of Pallars and Raymond II of Pallars.[1] [2]

Life

She was born to Miró II of Cerdanya.[3] In 925, her father gave her the fief of Vilanova. She married count Lope of Pallars.[4] Goltregoda played an important political role in Pallars.

After the death of her spouse in 948, she ruled as regent during the minority of her two sons.[5] Not much is known of the events in Pallars during her regency, but her signature appears on state documents. In 953, she made her last signature on a state document as regent: after this year, her sons signed all documents and are assumed to no longer be under her regency.
