Alessandro Ferdinando Maffei[1] (3 October 1662 – 5 January 1730) was an Italian Lieutenant General of Infantry in the service of the Electorate of Bavaria. He was the brother of the Italian writer and archaeologist Francesco Scipione.
De Maffei was born in Verona. After entering the army of Bavaria in 1683, he was wounded at the Siege of Mongatz in 1687; he was later promoted to Colonel in 1696.[2]
During the War of the Spanish Succession, he served as the second in command at the Battle of Schellenberg in 1704. In 1706, he led a brigade at the Battle of Ramillies against the Allied forces under the command of the Duke of Marlborough. After being taken prisoner, he became involved in abortive negotiations for peace.
