Audelais of Benevento

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Audelais (also Adelais or Andelais) was a usurper of the duchy of Benevento for two years after the death of Romuald II. He overthrew Romuald's son and heir, Gisulf II.

Liutprand, King of the Lombards, came down and removed both Gisulf and Audelais and placed his own candidate, Gregory, on the throne.
