| - Richard (flourished 1131–1148) was the Italo-Norman count of Rupecanina (today Raviscanina). Richard was a son of Count Robert of Alife and Gaitelgrima, younger brother of Count Rainulf II of Alife and brother-in-law of Duke William II of Apulia. He was also a distant cousin of Prince Robert II of Capua, as both belonged to the extended Drengot family. He had two sons: Andrew, who succeeded him at Rupecanina, and , who later succeeded to the county of Alife. During Richard's time, feudal concepts like those of fiefs and aids were just being introduced into Capua. In 1131, Richard claimed to possess the town of Avellino and castle of Mercogliano as allods and to owe no feudal duties for them. According to Alexander of Telese in his Deeds Done by King Roger of Sicily (I.xiii), when Roger heard this he sent an envoy to demand Richard's submission. Richard had the man blinded and his nose cut off. Roger took Avellino by force. In April 1134, he was a witness when his brother Rainulf swore an oath before Bishop , promising to cede to the diocese a large number of estates. Richard and his brother supported Prince Robert II of Capua in his war with King Roger II of Sicily. When Roger attacked Aversa in 1135, Rainulf fled to the protection of Duke Sergius VII of Naples, leaving Richard to defend their lands from his stronghold of Rupecanina. According to Alexander of Telese (III.xi and xiv), Richard fled at Roger's approach, but was unable to join his brother at Naples. He left behind one of his sons as the king's hostage. Deprived of their fiefs, Richard, Rainulf and Robert went in exile to the court of Emperor Lothair II in Germany by early 1136, where they clamoured for the emperor to lead an expedition against Roger. When the imperial army finally moved south in 1137, the three were able briefly to regain their fiefs. In August 1137, Pope Innocent II and Emperor Lothair jointly invested Rainulf with the Duchy of Apulia. Lothair loaned him an army of 800 German knights, which he promptly placed under the command of Richard and their younger brother Alexander. Richard quickly secured all of Apulia. This recovery was brief. After Lothair left, Richard fled with Robert to the court of the pope. After the death of Rainulf, Innocent gathered a large army and personally led it into Roger's domains. On 22 July 1139, at the , the papal army was defeated and the pope and his treasure captured. Richard and Robert managed to escape the rout. Both went into exile in Germany, where Richard was still living as late as 1148. (en)
- Riccardo di Raviscanina (1100 circa – 1155 circa) è stato un condottiero normanno. Figlio del conte Roberto di Alife e Gaitelgrima, fratello minore di Rainulfo di Alife. Signore della rocca di Sant'Angelo d'Alife e Raviscanina, è detto comes (conte) dal cronista Falcone di Benevento. Dopo alcuni anni di conflitti che i signori normanni dell'Italia centrale e meridionale (in particolare suo fratello Rainulfo) appoggiati dal Papa e dall'Imperatore conducevano contro il re Ruggero II di Sicilia, l'8 aprile 1139 il Papa scomunicò Ruggero, ma il 30 dello stesso mese morì Rainulfo. Di conseguenza Ruggero, il 25 maggio 1139, sbarcò di nuovo a Salerno e si impadronì della Puglia. Nel frattempo le truppe del papa si riunirono con quelle di Roberto II di Capua e Riccardo di Raviscanina e si venne allo scontro presso Galluccio il 22 luglio 1139.Le forze pontificie vennero sconfitte e Roberto, Riccardo e altri nobili normanni cercarono scampo nella fuga in Germania, dove furono accolti dall'imperatore Corrado III. Seguì un periodo confuso di intrighi, finché Corrado III morì nel febbraio 1152 durante i preparativi di una nuova spedizione in Italia. Tuttavia Federico Barbarossa, nuovo imperatore, volle portare a termine i progetti del suo predecessore, e infatti nella dieta di Würzburg, presenti i Normanni, i feudatari tedeschi decisero che la spedizione si sarebbe mossa dopo due anni, avendo quale scopo principale l'incoronazione a Roma dell'imperatore.
