INTRODUCTION

 

 

The region to the south of the river Minho was referred to as provincia Portucalense as early as 841, taking its name from the port of Cale on whose site the city of Oporto was later built.  It was established as a separate administrative territory by the kings of Asturias towards the end of the ninth century, with a governor ("dux") appointed for life by the crown.  The name Portugal is first found in a document of 883.  By the middle of 11th century, the office of dux was no longer being filled, the Kkng of Castile and León appointing local administrators ("meirinhos") to supplant the influence of the local aristocracy[1].  Under the division of territories decreed by Fernando I King of Castile and León after his death, the territory of Portugal was part of the kingdom of Galicia which fell to Fernando's youngest son García.  The local barons rebelled against his rule, and Galicia was invaded by García's brother Alfonso VI King of León who incorporated it into his territories.  The county of Portugal was established when King Alfonso's granted land to his son-in-law Henri de Bourgogne in [1096/97].  The new county of Portugal asserted its independence systematically over the subsequent decades.  Count Henri's widow Teresa adopted the title Queen of Portugal in 1117.  Her son Conde Afonso expelled Queen Teresa from Portugal in 1128 and proclaimed himself king of Portugal in 1139. 

 

The primary sources which confirm the parentage and marriages of members of the Portuguese royal family have not yet been identified, unless otherwise stated below.

HENRI de Bourgogne, son of HENRI “le damoiseau” de Bourgogne [Capet] & his wife --- ([1069/72]-killed in battle Astorga, León 22 May 1112, bur Braga Cathedral).  "Heynricus frater meus" witnessed the donation to Cluny of "Oddo dux Burgundie"[2].  An indication of his age is given in the charter dated to [1081/84] under which "Odo dux Burgundie" confirmed a donation by "frater meus domnus Hugo" to the abbey of Molesme with the consent of "fratres mei Robertus archidiaconus, Henricus puer, Beatrix et Helia sorores mee"[3].  His aunt Constance Queen of Castile invited him to the court of Castile.  He may have arrived in Spain with the expedition of the Eudes I Duke of Burgundy in 1086/87, following a call from the Abbey of Cluny to fight "the infidel"[4].  Señor de Braga [1093], count in Tordesillas 1096/97.  He made a mutual pact [Dec 1094/Jul 1095] with Raymond de Bourgogne, husband of Infanta doña Urraca de Castilla, under which he promised support in securing Castile and León for Raymond in return for a pledge to grant him Toledo (or in default, Galicia)[5].  Alfonso VI King of Castile made him a large grant of land, from the River Minho in the north to Santarem in the south, before before 9 Apr 1097[6], which in effect resulted in his installation as HENRIQUE Conde de Portugal.  This grant may have been motivated as much by a desire to offset the growing power of his son-in-law, Raymond de Bourgogne, as to increase the power base of Henri de Bourgogne. Henrique established his residence at Guimarães, winning several battles against the Moors, although he was defeated at Malagón, south of Toledo, 16 Sep 1100[7].  "…Taraxia Adefonsi regis filia…Henrik comes…" subscribed the charter dated 14 Mar 1099 under which Alfonso VI King of Castile donated the monastery of Santa María de Algadefe to the monastery of Eslonza[8].  “Comes domnus Henricus et uxor mea Domna Theresia, domini Regis Alfonsi filia” donated property to La Charité-sur-Loire by charter dated Mar 1100[9].  He went to Palestine after 8 Jun 1101, but had returned by 1103 when he confirmed several of his father-in-law's charters[10].  After the death of Alfonso VI King of Castile in 1109, the county of Portugal enjoyed de facto independence, due largely to the troubles faced by Queen Urraca in Castile after her accession.  Henrique took advantage of this situation by joining forces with Alfonso I King of Aragon and defeating Urraca at Candespina, near Sepúlveda 26 Oct 1111.  However, he changed sides after the battle and besieged Alfonso at Peñafiel jointly with Urraca's forces.  He was killed at the siege of Astorga, supporting doña Urraca Queen of Castile against her second husband don Alfonso I King of Aragon.  The Chronicon Lusitanum records the death “Kal Mai” in 1152 (1114) of “Comes D.
