Braulio of Zaragoza was a prominent 7th-century bishop and scholar who lived during the Visigothic period in Hispania. Born into a Hispano-Roman family to Bishop Gregory of Osma, he began his monastic life in 610 before studying under Isidore of Seville. After being ordained by Isidore in 624, he served as an archdeacon in Zaragoza and eventually became its bishop in 631. He played a significant role in the religious and political landscape of the era, serving as an advisor to kings and assisting in the transition from Arianism to Catholic Christianity.
