To do so, we are traveling back in time to remember one of the most illustrious intellectuals of the Visigothic period: Isidore of Seville. This Sevillian bishop, whose name defines a true golden age of Visigothic culture (the "Isidorian Era"), was a giant of erudition.

Saint Florentina of Cartagena: An intellectual powerhouse in an age of limited female education, she was a cornerstone of the religious landscape of Late Antiquity, guiding monastic life and scholarship alongside her famous brothers.

Queen Baddo: She shattered the era’s glass ceiling. She is the only Visigothic queen known to have formally signed the acts of a church council—the monumental Third Council of Toledo (589 AD).

BADDO @baddoproject.bsky.social · 08/03/2026

Queen Gosvinta: More than just a consort, she was a political strategist who survived two kings and brokered the alliances that kept the kingdom stable. While old chronicles painted her as a "villain," modern historians see a political titan.

What motivated Reccared's conversion to Catholicism? In 589, with the celebration of the Third Council of Toledo, the conversion of the Visigothic King Reccared to Catholicism was made public. But what motivated the King to convert?

Did King Reccared convert the Goths, or did he take too much credit? At the Third Council of Toledo, King Reccared was hailed as the unifier of the Goths and Suevi. However, Saint Leander of Seville used his homily to subtly remind the monarch that true conversion comes only from Christ.

The possibilities of AI pose quite a challenge, and although there is some scepticism regarding its use, everything points to the fact that, over time, more and more researchers will make use of these tools.

Cernunnos was known as the “Lord of the Animals”, a deity who ruled over nature, but who also represented prosperity, regeneration, death and life beyond this world (Reboreda Morillo and Castro Pérez, 2003-2004).

110

BADDO @baddoproject.bsky.social · 31/10/2025

But why the deer? This custom of dressing up in antlers and skins can be traced back much further, to the ancient Celtic cult of the god Cernunnos. Characterised by his deer antlers, he was sometimes depicted as three-headed, accompanied by a snake-ram, deer, wild boars or dogs.

BADDO @baddoproject.bsky.social · 17/10/2025

What interests us here is precisely the representation of Queen Baddo (or Bada), who once again appears as one of the main protagonists of the Third Council of Toledo, alongside the council proceedings.
