His chaplain, a friar named Gomita, was caught taking bribes to release prisoners and so Nino had him hanged.

[3] His daughter Joanna succeeded to the title of Gallura and married Rizzardo IV da Camino, Count of Ceneda and Lord of Treviso.

In the eighth canto of Purgatorio, to his mild surprise, Dante meets Nino in the region of Purgatory outside St. Peter's gate.

[3] He sees as a great loss for her, and directly comments on his disgust at how quickly women move on from their husbands.

Many commentators agree that Nino's daughter and wife may represent a Mary and Eve dynamic.

[3] It is commonly agreed that Nino's character uses Beatrice to broadly criticize the women of the time.

The two Occitan works mentioned, are anonymous coblas that appear towards the end of an Italian chansonnier of 1310.

One cobla, Mand qe iur e non periur was addressed al iuge de Galur, that is, Nino, and has sometimes been ascribed to Paolo Lanfranchi da Pistoia.

Gattilusio acquired property interests in Sardinia and appeared in several documents pertaining to Nino's rule.
