Pope Urban II: His Descent From Arrius Piso

Pope Urban II & His Descent From Arrius Piso (Roman Piso, 10-15-2016) It is important to note that in our studies of history (and ancient history particularly), that in order to get at the truth and understand it as it actually was, we must, at least some instances, deduce either what happened or in what way some things had happened. And, in order to do that, we must refer to things such as motives and even the temperament of various individuals involved. Which, brings us back to the importance of building profiles for these individuals. In what is left to us from history regarding Pope Urban II, we are told how it came to be that he had called for the First Crusade. But, did it really happen in the way that we were told? The story is that the Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Comnenus,* in 1094/1095 CE, sent word to Pope Urban II, asking for his help against the Seljuk Turks, who had, he said, taken nearly all of Asia Minor from him. The pope took that as an opportunity... Thus, on Nov. 27th, 1095 CE, Pope Urban II called for the 1st Crusade, calling upon all Christians in Europe to make war upon Muslims, saying "God wills it!" ("Deus Vult!"). But, in doing so, without having to say it or indicate it in any obvious way, he was really calling upon a war against the Jews as well. And this is because such a Crusade or Crusades had been planned all along (this will be explained below).** Thus, it gives us pause to think upon the story of how and why this had happened in the way given to us in history. For example, did Alexios I Comnenus really write to Pope Urban II without first being asked or prompted to by the pope himself? We wonder upon this for various reasons. In other words, this seems rather suspicious. And even more so, when reflecting upon this in hindsight with information provided from the other Crusades that followed. One of those things is that the pope's brother and other relatives were participants in this and other Crusades.*** These Crusades, though superficially aimed at regaining territory, were about much more than that, which is obvious. And one of the main things to observe is the routes which were taken by the "Crusaders" both to and from the Holy Land. It appears, when looking at the maps of the time, that these "Crusades" went directly through key Jewish towns, cities and villages (both going to and coming back from their apparent destinations). It is on these routes where the people of those towns were raped, robbed, plundered and killed. And, their books were either confiscated, burned or otherwise destroyed. Some of the key Jewish people of the time were targeted and either killed or taken captive. Many Jewish people were tortured and killed in attempts to find caches of books and/or treasure. But, this side of what happened is generally not told or known.

Though some account vary, it has been said that Pope Urban II was born in 1035 CE, at Chatillon-sur-Marne. His name was Eudes/Odo (which is 'Otho'. Thus, named after the Roman Emperor Otho). He is said to have been a Frenchman of Lagery (and thus, also referred to as 'Odo of Lagery'), and was the papal successor of Pope Victor III. He studied at Reims (Rheims) and became a monk at Cluny, near Macon. Pope Urban II was a descendant of King (Emperor) Charlemagne. Who, in turn, was a descendant of Arrius Calpurnius Piso. The genealogical chart below demonstrates the descent of Pope Urban II from both Charlemagne and Arrius Piso.

[Elizabeth de Joigny?] Notes: * The Emperor Alexios I Comnenus was a royal relative of Pope Urban II. He was also a direct descendant of Arrius Piso. ** See my work regarding the Roman creation of Islam, its original purpose and how it backfired. ** For instance, a brother of Pope Urban II (Gautier de Chatillon), was a Crusader. Before becoming pope, Odo went to Rome as prior of Cluny (early in the reign of St. [Pope] Gregory VII). The Pope kept him there, finding Odo one of his ablest assistants in the great reform. The Pope (Gregory VII), made him a cardinal and bishop of Ostia. Odo worked as legate in Germany. When he was elected Pope, Odo worked towards the cause of reform, undaunted by the opposition (Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV, and his Anti-Pope Clement III [aka Guibert of Ravenna]. It was at Clermont, on Nov. 1095 CE, that Pope Urban II preached a sermon that brought about the First Crusade. He was referred to as 'Odo of Lagery' (in France, near Macon). And, Eudes/Odo [aka 'Otho' de Chatillon] may have been aka "Iti" (Itier) I of Toucy. In which case, he descendants and wife are given under that name. If so, his wife appears as Elizabeth

de Joigny. This pope's father was Guy/Gui (Guido) I of/de Chatillon (some sources make it appear that he died in 1044 CE, and others, circa 1076 CE). His mother, is listed as Ermengarde de Choisy (de Chevier, born circa 1014 CE). Pope Urban II initiated the First Crusade. The First Crusade was from 1095-1099 CE. Pope Urban II was pope from 1088-1099 CE. References: 'Popes Through The Ages', Joseph Brusher.
