Pio Alessandro Carlo Fulvio Filippani Ronconi (10 March 1920 – 11 February 2010) was an Italian orientalist, Waffen-SS soldier and author.
He was born out of a black aristocratic family, his father being Count Fulvio Filippani Ronconi and his mother Anita Tamagno, tracing back to the Roman patriciate.
By this period he was competent in Italian, Spanish, Catalan, Arabic, Greek and Latin, and later studied several additional languages including Turkish, Hebrew, Chinese, Tibetan, Sanskrit and Persian among others.
At the same time, his spiritual interests brought him to study and practice the tantras, and to know Julius Evola, Arturo Reghini and other members of the Ur Group.
He collaborated with several Latin American intelligence services: in 1950, he had written a report about the political and military situation of Bolivia, foreseeing a revolution which broke out several months later.
As his lecture was thought to have been devised and used to plan a general "strategy of tension" to destabilize Italian democratic system, and due to one of his students, Delfo Zorzi, being enquired for material responsibility.
