Flavius Paulus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul was a Hispano-Roman duke of the Visigothic king Wamba. In 672, when sent to crush the rebellion of Hilderic of Nîmes and the Jews in Septimania and Catalonia, he converted to Judaism and proclaimed himself king in Narbonne as Flavius Paulus. He sent an insolent letter to Wamba and in response the king came down on the usurper and his rebellion with avengeance in 673. Paul fled Narbonne, but was captured and marched back to Toledo.
