Rollo, the Dane, was a Viking pirate that was banished from Norway by his father; and captured Bayeux in 890. He was given the Name of Robert I at his baptism, and was styled as the "Patrician of Normandy".
He aquired his nickname "the Ganger", because he was to big for a horse to carry and had to walk.
