Pedro de Artajona

Pedro de Artajona or Pedro de París (died 13 June 1193 in Pamplona) was a Spanish noble of the House of Artajona in the service of the Kingdom of Navarre. He was known as de París for having lived and studied in the French capital, not for being heretically from there.

He further served the Kingdom of Navarre as an advisor and ambassador to Sancho IV of Navarre and is listed in the chronicles of Alonso VIII.[4]
