- Veremund
Veremund or Veremundus (giving rise to the later Castilian name "Vermudo"/"Bermudo") was a
Suevi cKing of Galicia around 485, during a period of obscurity for the region following the death of the chroniclerHydatius (469) and the Sueves conversion toArianism (466). If he existed, he was undoubtedly an Arian.Veremund's existence is conjectured on the basis of a sixth-century inscription discovered at
Salvador de Vairão . The date in the inscription has been read as 485, although some have dated it to the eighth century, making its "Veremundus"Bermudo I of Asturias ; more recently, a date of 535 has been put forward.ources
