Rodrigo died 873 was the first count of Castile , reigning from about 850 to his death. Some Al Andalus Iberian Muslim writers refer to a brother or brother in law of Ordo o I of Asturias Ordo o I , while others assign the same role to a Ruderick without stating a relationship, and the references have been interpreted as referring to the same man.
