Gautier del Hum

Gautier was the lord of Hum. Although, he was not one of the Twelve Peers, he was a vassal of Roland, and therefore he took part in the Battle of Rencesvals, as recorded in Chanson de Roland.

Roland commanded Gautier to take one thousand warriors to occupy the defiles and the heights above the Rencesvals. But Gautier returned later to the valley after all of his men were killed on top of the mountain, hoping to receive help from Roland's force. Gautier did kill Maelgut, nephew of Droun, before he came down to the valley. However, Gautier only found Roland and the archbishop alive, among the thousands of dead Franks.

Gautier fought side by side with Roland and the Archbishop Turpin, killing six, until he was killed from a volley of javelins and darts.
