A knight of King Ferrando.
Brother of Alvar Salvadorez, his signature appears on nine of the ten royal charters that survive from Sancho's seven-year rule (1065-1072).
And the King sent the Infante Don Ramiro his cousin, and the Infante Don Sancho, son to the King of Navarre, and Count Don Gonzalo Salvadores, and Count Don Nuno Alvarez, and many other knights with them; and they came to the Castle, and Almofalez said he would not open the gates to them, but if the King came he would open to him.
This was the end of the good Count Don Gonzalo Salvadores, who was so good a knight in battle that he was called He of the Four Hands.
