EspañolSTEPHEN I, COUNT OF BURGUNDY
'Stephen I,' Count Palatine of Burgundy, alias "bold head" (fr ''tête hardie''), was Count of Burgundy and Count of Mâcon and Vienne.
Born in 1065 into a powerful and influential family, he was the son of Count William I of Burgundy and Stephanie of Longwy-Metz, and brother to Reginald II, Count of Burgundy and Pope Callixtus II.
Stephen succeeded to the County in 1097, following the death in the Crusades of his elder brother. His reign was not to last, though, as he too would fall in the fight for The Holy Land in 1102, aged 37. He was succeeded by his eldest son, Reginald III of Burgundy.
