Reccimer or Ricimer, was the son of King Suintila of the Visigothic Kingdom and Co-King with his father. Born in 610, he became Governor of Toledo in 625, with his uncle Geila as regent. Reccimer was installed as Co-King in 626. His father became unpopular for attempting to make the monarchy hereditary.[1] In 631, the Governor of Septimania, Sisenand, declared himself King with the aid of the Franks and deposed Suintila. Reccimer died that year in Zaragoza.[2]
