A number of secondary sources show Pankalo as the daughter of Ašot I BAGRATUNI, kouropalates of Iberia and founder of the Bagratid dynasty in Georgia; however, to-date I have not found any historical research material which advances this claim. While Pankalo was born within the correct time period to have been a daughter of Ašot I, of his four known children there is only one daughter listed, unnamed, and she married Teodos, king of Abkhazia. 2
