Pope Lando
Pope Lando (also known as Landus) was the bishop of Rome and the ruler of the Papal States from around September 913 to his death around March 914.J. N. D. Kelly and Michael Walsh, "Lando", ''The Oxford Dictionary of Popes'', 2nd ed. (Oxford University Press, 2010), p. 120.

According to the '' Liber pontificalis'', Lando was born in the Sabina (Papal States), and his father was a wealthy Lombard count named Taino from Fornovo.Umberto Longo"Landone, papa" ''Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani'' 63 (2004).Harald Zimmerman, "Lando", in Philippe Levillain, ed., ''The Papacy: An Encyclopedia'', Vol. 2, Gaius–Proxies (New York: Routledge, 2002), p. 896.

Landó (music)
Landó is an Afro-Peruvian form of music in the musica criolla genre. Influences There are theories of the origin of this genre. According to the Peruvian reciter and ethnomusicologist Nicomedes Santa Cruz (1925-1992), the word "landó" derives from ''ondú'', an African dance. It is also suggested that the landó comes from the Brazilian dance ''lundu''. Likewise, the term "landó" is hardly found in the literature of the time of the Viceroyalty of Peru, although there is some mention of the "zamba landa". No reliable historical sources have yet been found on which an accurate description of the development of the landau in Peru can be elaborated; the only available source is the scant information provided by twentieth-century informants who witnessed the execution and the text and music of the few landós that have survived. Today It is only in the 1960s that a song called "Samba Malató", compiled in Lima by Nicomedes Santa Cruz, and recorded by his Conjunto "Cumanana" becam ...
