Roderic (also spelled Ruderic, Roderik, Roderich, or Roderick; Spanish and , ; died July 711) was the Visigothic king in Hispania between 710 and 711. He is well known as "the last king of the Goths". He is an obscure figure about whom little can be said with certainty. He was the last Goth to rule from Toledo, but not the last Gothic king, a distinction which belongs to Ardo.
Roderic's election as king was disputed and he ruled only a part of Hispania while an opponent, Achila, ruled the rest. He faced a rebellion from the Basques and the Umayyad invasion, during which he was defeated and killed at the Battle of Guadalete. His widow, Egilona, is believed to have married Abd al-Aziz ibn Musa, the first Muslim governor of Hispania.
