- BIOGRAPHY
Sancho was the second son of Garcia I Iñiguez, king of Pamplona, and his wife Uracca. He was likely the _Sancium regem_ named as son-in-law _(generum meum)_ by Galindo I Aznár, conde de Aragón, in 867. He is also probably the Sancho, lord of Pamplona and head of the Basques, who defeated Muzaffar ibn Muza ibn Di al-Nun at some date between 865 and 875 (during his brother's captivity), as reported by the chronicler Ibn Khaldun. Chronicler Al-Udri names Velasquita, wife of Mutarrif ibn Musa ibn Qasi, as daughter of sahib Sancho, although Ibn Hayyan reports her as daughter of Garcia Iñiguez. Sancho's son Aznár Sánchez married a daughter of his uncle king Fortún Garcés and had a son Sancho and two future queens Toda Aznárez, wife of Sancho I Garcés, king of Navarre, and Sancha Aznárez, wife of Sancho's brother, king Jimeno Garcés.
It is not recorded when Sancho died.
