Biography
Birth and Parentage
She is known from a single historical source, the Roda Codex, which only gives her name and not her parentage. Historian and professor Antonio Rei has put forward the hypothesis that she could have been the granddaughter of Musa ibn Musa ibn Qasi, [2] while genealogist Christian Settipani suggested this and two other alternatives when addressing her possible parentage. [3]
Birth Year Estimation
Popular genealogies have her born about 838 and died after 806. [1] Wikipedia, without further source, has only the death date of her husband -- 922. He began to reign in 882. His birth year is unknown. For the purpose of estimation, make him aged 40 when he began to reign, therefore born 842. This would make him 80 at his death.
Assuming this was a first marriage for Auria, make her aged 18 and her husband 21 at their marriage. Assuming her husband's birth as 842, her birth year would be 845.
This makes the birth year 838 somewhat credible, so it is retained. The 806 death year, if originally accurate, was probably 906, when she would have been 68.
She has a child born in 855. Given a birth year of 838, she would have been 17 at the time, not unreasonable.
Marriage
Auria was an early Queen consort of Pamplona. [1]
She married King Fortún Garcés of Pamplona, [4] who died in 922. [1]

While my French isn't fluent enough to grok all the details of his prose, it's clear a) he's not sure; and b) the Aurea who m. Fortun Garces and had Onneca may NOT be descended from Musa (or any Muslim whatsoever) but rather from his brother-in-law Garcia 'the Bad and; c) none of the three plausible scenarios he presents are what we're publishing to the world as fact.
It also appears we are relying on an (uncredited) descent suggested by J. Perez de Urbel, making this Aurea the daughter of Lubb by Ayab, thus grand-daughter of Musa ibn Musa, which Settipani politely demolishes on page 113 here:
https://books.google.fr/books?id=1tho6B1mUGMC&lpg=PP1&hl=fr&pg=PA113
https://books.google.fr/books?id=1tho6B1mUGMC&lpg=PP1&hl=fr&pg=PA114#v=onepage&q&f=false
It's my understanding this one, i.e. the daughter of Lubb by Ayab, is the NIECE of the other Auria, who m. Fortun Garces and whose children include Onneca Fortunez.
Put another way, the currently-connected parents of this profile ought to be the uncle (and aunt) of the currently-connected children of this profile. Not the grandparents.
Q: what are the other ideas Christian Settapini suggests?

This is not OK.
Can we please use facts, and if we don't have them, not guess? If we don't know, then we don't know.
