Biography
Toda Aznárez, also Teuda de Larraun or Tota (c. 885–aft. 970), was thequeen-consort of Pamplona through her marriage to Sancho I, who reigned905–925, and was regent of Pamplona, 931–934. Later in life, she ruled asubkingdom created for her.
She was the daughter of Aznar Sánchez, lord of Larraun, paternal grandsonof king García Íñiguez of Pamplona, while her mother Onneca Fortúnez wasa daughter of king Fortún Garcés. Thus, Toda''s children were alsodescendants of the Arista dynasty of Navarrese monarchs. She was sisterof Sancha Aznárez, wife of king Jimeno Garcés, her husband''s brother andsuccessor, while Toda and Sancha were also aunts of Caliph Abd-ar-RahmanIII, through their mother''s first marriage to ‘Abdullah ibn Muhammad.
With the death of her brother-in-law Jimeno in 931, she became regent andguardian for her young son, García Sánchez I. In 934 Toda signed a treatypledging allegiance to her nephew Abd-ar-Rahman III, and releasedhostages of the Banu Di n-Nun clan, the caliph confirming the rule of herson García (this has sometimes been interpreted as an act of the Caliphto liberate García from his mother''s direct control). This led to therebellion in Falces by a count Fortún Garcés, an "irascible man who hatedMuslims", the uprising being suppressed with Cordoban arms. Toda violatedher treaty in 937, forcing a punitive campaign.
During several stretches she appears in the royal charters of the kingdomto the exclusion of her daughter-in-law, the queen, from 947 to 955, andagain in 959. In 958 she was ruling her own subkingdom, in the area ofDegio and Lizarra, towns not otherwise identified.[1]
The same year, she took an interest in the health of her Leonese grandsonSancho I, whose obesity was largely responsible for hisdethronement.[2][3] Toda requested the assistance of Abd-ar-Rahman III,the Caliphate of Córdoba being renowned for its physicians. The caliphsent her his Jewish physician Hasdai ibn Shaprut, who promised to cureSancho on condition that Toda visit the city of Córdoba.[4] Therefore,Toda, her son García Sánchez I of Pamplona and grandson Sancho I of León,nobles and clergymen arrived in Córdoba, where they were received withfull honors and amid much pomp.[5][6][7] The arrival of this Christianqueen in the capital of an Islamic caliphate enhanced Abd-ar-Rahman III''sprestige among his subjects,[8] and is considered a landmark in thehistory of medieval diplomacy.[9] Sancho''s medical treatment wassuccessful, and he was "relieved from his excessive corpulence."[10][11]
She had been an energetic diplomat, arranging political marriages for herdaughters among the competing royalty and nobility of Christian Iberia.

The Codex of Roda gives Sancho and Toda six children:
Oneca, married Alfonso IV of León in 926
Sancha, married Ordoño II of León, Count Alvaro Herraméliz of Álava, andFernán González, Count of Castile
Urraca, married Ramiro II of León
Velasquita (or Belasquita), married firstly Munio, count of Vizcaya,secondly Galindo, son of Bernard count of Ribagorza, and thirdly FortúnGalíndez, duke of Nájera.
