Biography

[edit]

Doña Aurora Pinedo was born in 1910 in Mururata to Don Bonifacio Pinedo and his second wife, Doña Cecilia Barra.[1] She was a princess of the Afro-Bolivian Royal House as the eldest daughter of Bonifacio, who reigned as ceremonial King of the Afro-Brazilians.[2][3]

Following the death of her father in 1954, who had no direct male heirs, she assumed the role of Princess Regent of the Afro-Bolivians, taking on the responsibilities of the ceremonial monarch.[4] She reigned as regent for thirty-eight years while the throne of the royal house was vacant.[1]

She married Genaro and had four sons: Prince Julio, Prince Justino, Prince Hermenegildo, and Prince Gabriel.[5] Her husband predeceased her.[1]

Pinedo died on 18 April 1992 in Mururata. She was succeeded by her eldest son, Prince Julio, as king.[1]
