Encyclopedic overview
See Sigeberht II of Essex for the Saxon ruler by that name.
Sigebert II (601–613), also called Sigisbert II, was the illegitimate son of Theuderic II, from whom he inherited the kingdoms of Burgundy and Austrasia in 613. He was put on the throne by his great-grandmother, Brunhilda, who dominated his short reign.
