Lupus of Spoleto (original) (raw)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lupus ruled the Duchy of Spoleto from 745 to 751.[1] He was relatively independent of royal authority.
He made many donations to the Abbey of Farfa and had a close relationship with Abbot Fulcoald. On his death, the duchy was probably seized by Aistulf and then granted to one Unnolf for a brief spell.
