Elias VI of Périgord

Hélie VI Talleyrand (c. 1136–1203) was count of Périgord from 1166, succeeding his father Boson IV. In 1181 he answered the troubadour Bertran de Born’s call and joined the Aquitanian lords’ revolt against Richard the Lionheart, submitting in 1182.

When Richard was imprisoned in 1192, he rebelled again, allied with King Philip Augustus and Count Raymond V of Toulouse, but ducal forces defeated him once more. His last charter dates to 1203–1204, and his son Hélie VII succeeded.
