Tolleme


The ruler of Sarras, who was defeated by Evelake; he had accepted Christianity from Joseph of Arimathea.

J.W. Taylor in his book, The Coming of the Saints (1906), is of the opinion that the Saracens Tolleme ruled may have been a race of Jewish descent living in Cornwall. According to Gerbert, Tollome was King of Syria.
