Did bishop odo pay for the bayeux tapestry?
There is no concrete evidence to definitively prove that Bishop Odo paid for the Bayeux Tapestry. However, it is widely believed that Odo, who was the half-brother of William the Conqueror and played a significant role in the Norman Conquest, likely commissioned the tapestry. It is possible that he provided the resources or patronage needed for its creation, but the exact details remain uncertain.

Who arranged for Bayeux Tapstry to be made?
French legend maintained the tapestry was commissioned and created by Queen Matilda, William The Conqueror's wife, and her ladies-in-waiting. Indeed, in France it is occasionally known as "La Tapisserie de la Reine Mathilde" (Tapestry of Queen Matilda). However, recent scholarly analysis in the 20th century shows it probably was commissioned by William the Conqueror's half brother, Bishop Odo. The reasons for the Odo commission theory include: 1) three of the bishop's followers mentioned in Doomesday Book appear on the tapestry; 2) it was found in Bayeux Cathedral, built by Odo; and 3) it may have been commissioned at the same time as the cathedral's construction in the 1070s, possibly completed by 1077 in time for display on the cathedral's dedication. Also it has been attributed to Odo of Bayeux because he himself is depicted at a few decisive moments in the tapestry narrative, precisely the dinning scene which resembles the image of the last supper. == ==
