Witteric (Spanish: Witerico; Portuguese and Galician: Viterico; c. 565 – April 610) was the Visigoth King of Hispania, Septimania and Galicia.

However, when it came time to do so in the Spring of 603, Witteric instead led his troops against King Liuva II, counting on the support of a faction of nobles in opposition to the dynasty of Leovigild.

[citation needed] Witteric cut off the king's right hand, and then had him condemned and executed in the summer of 603.

In the twelfth year of his reign, king Theodoric II sent for bishop Aridius of Lyons and the constable Eborin to ask Witteric for his daughter Ermenberga's hand in marriage.

[4] In April 610, a faction of Catholic nobles conspired against Witteric and assassinated him during a banquet.
