• Notes

  Sancho was the eldest son of King Alfonso VII of León and Castile and Berengaria of Barcelona.[6] He was endowed with the "Kingdom of Nájera" in 1152, and according to Carolina Carl never appears in documents as "king of Nájera".[7] His father's will partitioned the kingdom between his two sons: Sancho inherited the kingdoms of Castile and Toledo, and Ferdinand inherited León.[8] The two brothers had just signed a treaty when Sancho suddenly died in the summer of 1158, being buried at Toledo.
