Since the 17th century, historiography has referred to the Bavarian dukes of the early Middle Ages as Agilolfings. This is based on a provision by the Lex Baioariorum (III, 1) with the following content, formulated from the point of view of the Frankish king: "But the duke, who is at the head of the people, has always been of the Agilolfing lineage...
The name is derived, as one may assume, from an actual or even only supposed first ancestor called Agilolf (or similar). Various suggestions have already been made for the identification of this person, for example with the Suebian king Agilulf (died 457) or with the Lombard king Agilulf (590-615/16; ruled 591-615/16), but all these attempts remain...
The mere fact that they are named with a common "family name" (which is extremely rare in the early Middle Ages) is a sign of the Agilolfings' outstanding position. From their first known appearance in the 6th century onwards, the Bavarian dukes who were counted among them belonged to the highest aristocratic class in Europe, as can be seen especia...
In Bavaria, the Agilolfings never rose above the rank of duke, even though they were able to fill their office at times in quasi-royal independence. Lombard chronicler Paulus Diaconus (died 799) does indeed give the names Garibald I and Tassilo I (died around 610) as "rex" (king), but elsewhere the same Tassilo as "dux" (duke), and the subordinatio...
Since the 12th century, other alleged Agilolfings were "added" by imaginative interpretation and generous combining of sources, so that sometimes up to eight different dukes named Theodo were counted, while in reality there probably was no more than one, at best two. These fictions could be identified and eliminated by scientific source criticism i...

Garibald I. (* nach 500; † um 593) war vermutlich der erste namentlich bekannte Herzog der Bajuwaren in Baiern. Leben. Garibald war ein früher Vertreter der Agilolfinger, einer bedeutenden und führenden Dynastie, ohne dass bisher geklärt werden konnte, woher diese Dynastie stammt und wer die Eltern Garibalds waren
Die bayerischen Herzöge bis zum Sturz Herzog Tassilos III. 788 werden als Agilolfinger bezeichnet. Grundlage dafür ist die Bestimmung der Lex Baioariorum, die Herzöge müssten immer diesem Geschlecht angehören. Bestätigende Quellen fehlen jedoch. Auch sind aufgrund der Lückenhaftigkeit der Überlieferung keineswegs alle frühen Herzöge ...
