Commentary
Charles Cawley: "Her parentage is not known. According to Europäische Stammtafeln, Arsinde was the daughter of Acfred Duke of Aquitaine, Comte d'Auvergne, first cousin of Acfred [II] Comte de Carcassonne. Settipani highlights that the obvious way of explaining the transmission of the county of Carcassonne to the family of the Comtes de Comminges is that she was Arsinde de Carcassonne, daughter of Acfred Comte de Carcassonne et de Razès Seigneur de Foix & his wife ---. However, there are chronological difficulties with this suggestion. As explained below, it is likely that her son Roger [I] Comte de Carcassonne was born in the later part of the date range [930/40]. If this is correct, Arsinde would have married in [925/35] which would place her own birth in the range [905/20]. As noted above, it is probable that Oliba [II] Comte de Carcassonne, who would have been Arsinde's paternal grandfather, was born in [815/30]. If this is correct, the number of years for the span of generations between Oliba and Arsinde is much greater than would otherwise be expected if they had really been grandfather and granddaughter. Another difficulty is that there is no indication who held the county of Carcassonne between the death of Comte Acfred [II] in [933] and the time when Arsinde's son Roger was comte, the date of which is uncertain but is unlikely to precede the 950s at the earliest. In particular, no proof has yet been found that the county was inherited by Arsinde's husband, which would have been normal if his wife had been the heiress of Carcassonne. ... It is assumed that it is also speculative based on onomastics. A third possibility is proposed by Stasser, who suggests that she was the sister of Raymond [I] Comte de Rouergue, on the grounds that it is better supported from the onomastic point of view."
