Origin of the Goths: Slavic or Germanic? - Page 2

TrueMacedonian · 01-17-2010, 05:39 PM

I wanted to create this topic for some time now. The Goths were such a powerful warrior people who have a history in the balkans, especially in Macedonia, that it is important to show their side in Macedonia's history because this is the history of our land.

Goths living with Macedonians

Strange but true.

The following text below is from the 6th century Roman bueraucrat/historian Jordanes (for more info on Jordanes see this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jordanes). This text is interesting;

page 33

page 107

There's a few things to notice from Jordanes' text.

1) On page 30 he differentiates Macedonians from Greeks.
2) Page 33 is just an interesting read altogether about Philip marrying a Goth.
3) The Goth King Thiudimer dies in Macedonia and the new Goth King Theoderic is crowned in Macedonia. The Goths are given land in Macedonia by the Romans.

Great subject that need much more attention. Very interesting.

I agree Bratot. Their impact was enormous on the Roman empire. Macedonians need to recognize a part of this history and respect it.

The following was from Count Marcellinus - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcellinus_Comes
