Manso Indians
The Manso Indians were an indigenous people who lived along the Rio Grande,Reynolds 1 from the 16th to the 17th century. Present-day Las Cruces, New Mexico developed in this area. The Manso were one of the indigenous groups to be resettled at the Guadalupe Mission in what is now Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. Some of their descendants remain in the area to this day. The Mansos were semi-nomadic hunter-gatherers who practiced little if any agriculture. Farming Indians lived both upstream and downstream from them. They had a life style similar to the Suma and the Concho, who lived nearby. Language Only a few words of their language were recorded. Linguists have theorized about their language: alternatives have been Uto-Aztecan, Tanoan, or Athabaskan (Apache) language.Gerald, Rex E. "The Manso Indians of the Paso del Norte Area."

Manso I Of Amalfi
Manso I ( it, Mansone) (died 1004) was the duke of Amalfi (966–1004) and prince of Salerno (981–983). He was the son of Duke Sergius I and the greatest independent ruler of Amalfi, which he controlled for nearly half a century. He is sometimes numbered Manso III. When his father Sergius, of the Musco Comite family, assumed the Amalfitan throne in 958, he immediately associated his young son Manso with him. In 966, Manso succeeded to the full dukedom. He was even granted the Byzantine title '' patricius''. From the start he had designs on the Principality of Salerno. In 977, he associated his own son John with him as co-duke. In 973, Manso conspired with Landulf of Conza and Marinus II of Naples to depose Gisulf I of Salerno. In 974, Gisulf was reinstated by Pandulf Ironhead. In 981, Manso took advantage of the youth of Pandulf II of Salerno and invaded that principality, removing him from office. Emperor Otto II, who was then in Italy fighting the Byzantines and th ...

Manso II Of Amalfi
Manso II the Blind was the duke of Amalfi on three separate occasions: from 1028 to 1029, from 1034 to 1038, and from 1043 to 1052. He was the second son of Sergius II and Maria, sister of Pandulf IV of Capua. His whole ducal career consisted of wars with his brother, John II, over the throne. The ''Chronicon Amalfitanum'' (''c''. 1300) is an important source for his reign. In 1028, he and his mother seized the throne, while Sergius and John fled to Constantinople. This was probably at the instigation of his uncle Pandulf. In 1029, John, but not Sergius, returned and reasserted his authority, deposing Manso and Maria. In April or May 1034, John was forced to flee Amalfi again for Naples and Manso and Maria retook the throne with the support of Pandulf. Maria took the titles ''ducissa et patricissa'', but Manso received no titles from Byzantium: clearly, they had aligned themselves with the Lombards and not the Greeks. In 1038, the Holy Roman Emperor Conrad II deposed Pandulf and J ...

Manso (viceduke)
Manso ('' fl. ) was a Lombard viceduke ('' vicedux'') who ruled the Duchy of Amalfi during the reign of Roger Borsa, the Norman Duke of Apulia. He is known only from his coins: large, copper '' follari'' bearing the inscription MANSO VICEDUX on the reverse. Irregular and poor in quality, mostly overstrikes of Salernitan coins, they were originally attributed to Manso of Salerno (981–83). The term ''vicedux'' is probably a title formed from Latin ''dux'' (duke), the traditional title of the rulers of Amalfi since the mid-tenth century, and the prefix ''vice-'', indicating a deputy. It may, however, be an abbreviation, either for ''vicerosissimus'' (most beloved) ''dux'' or ''vicarius et dux'' (vicar and duke). Every coin attributed to Manso bears his name and title, sometimes surrounding a cross. Among the obverse images—many unexplained—found on coins bearing this inscription are: a bonneted bust (sometimes between two stars on a field of pellets), a crowned head, an open han ...
