The Armalausi were an obscure Germanic tribe , appearing between the Alamanni and the Marcomanni on the Tabula Peutingeriana 3rd or 4th century . They may have been a tribe of the Hermunduri . Philippus Brietius 1650 places them in the Upper Palatinate . They appear to have crossed the Danube and replaced the Varisci in the 2nd or 3rd century, and they probably merged with the Alamanni in the course of the 4th century.

Image Germanic Groups ca. 0CE.jpg thumb right 300px Distribution of the primary Germanic groups ca. 1 CE. The Irminones , also referred to as Herminones or Hermiones , were a group of early Germanic tribes settling in the Elbe watershed and by the 1st century AD expanding into Bavaria , Swabia and Bohemia . High German languages Irminonic or Elbe Germanic is a conventional term grouping early West Germanic dialects ancestral to High German . The name Irminones comes from Tacitus s Germania book Germania 98 AD who categorized them as one of the tribes of Mannus . Other West Germanic proto tribes were the Ingvaeones and Istvaeones , all of them living in the Central region of Germania, as well as the Suebi , which include the Semnones , the Quadi and the Marcomanni . Pomponius Mela writes in his Description of the World III.3.31 in reference to the Kattegat and the waters surrounding the Danish isles see the Codanus sinus On the bay are the Cimbri and the Teutons Teutoni farther on, the farthest people of Germania , the Hermiones . Mela then begins to speak of the Scythia ns. Pliny the Elder Pliny s Natural History 4.100 claims that the Irminones include the Suebi , Hermunduri , Chatti , and Cherusci . In Nennius the name Mannus see Mannaz and his three sons appear in corrupted form, the ancestor of the Irminones appearing as Armenon . His sons here are Gothus , Valagothus Balagothus , Cibidus , Burgundus , and Longobardus , whence come the Goths and Ostrogoths , Visigoths , Crimean Goths , Valagoths Balagoths , Cibidi , Burgundians and Lombards Langobards . They may have differentiated into the tribes Alamanni , Hermunduri , Marcomanni , Quadi , Suebi by the 1st century AD. At this time the Suebi , Marcomanni and Quadi had moved southwest into the area of modern day Bavaria and Swabia . In 8 BC , the Marcomanni and Quadi drove the Boii out of Bohemia . The term Suebi is usually applied to all the groups that moved into this area, though later in history ca. 200 AD th ... more details
The Victohali , Victovali , Victufali , Victuali , or Victabali were a people group of Late Antiquity . In Greek their name is Biktoa or Biktoloi . They crossed the Danube with the Marcomanni and Quadi during the reign of Marcus Aurelius 161&ndash 180 . According to the chapters attributed to Julius Capitolinus in the unreliable Historia Augusta blockquote . . . now not only were the Victuali and Marcomanni throwing everything into confusion, but other tribes, who had been driven on by the more distant barbarians and had retreated before them, were ready to attack Italy if not peaceably received. ref Capitolinus, Historia Augusta , Marcus Aurelius, 14 2. ref blockquote They also participated in the Marcomannic Wars , or, as Capitolinus calls it, the German war or war of many nations . ref Capitolinus, Historia Augusta , Marcus Aurelius, 22 1&ndash 7, says all the nations banded together against us&mdash the Marcomanni, Varistae , Hermunduri and Quadi, the Suebi ans, Sarmatians, Lacringes and Buri , these and certain others together with the Victuali, namely, Osi , Bessi , Cobotes , Roxolani , Bastarnae , Alani , Peucini , and finally, the Costoboci . ref They participated in the barbarian conflict with the Roman Empire in 290, or earlier.

A careful reading of Tacitus provides one solution. He says that the source of the Elbe is among the Hermunduri ... .

image Europa Germanen 50 n Chr.svg thumb 350px The Varisci Narisci be seen as Narister ca. 50 CE. The Varisci German language German Varisker were a Germanic tribe , the presumed prior inhabitants of a medieval district, Provincia Variscorum , the same in presumption as the Vogtland district of Saxony in Germany . They do not appear under that name exactly in ancient history, however, but rather come on stage boldly and abruptly in the Germania Chapter 42 of Tacitus as the Naristi , with manuscript variants of Narisci and Varisti . Which were they, really? Perhaps the historical name of the mediaeval province is to be regarded as the final authority, but there are other possibilities The sources only state Latinized names of native originals that could be spelled in various ways in Latin. The people were in the process of changing their name. Tacitus describes the location of the Varisci as being along the line of the Danube between the Hermunduri at its source and the Marcomanni and Quadi in Bohemia. Ptolemy Book 2, Chapter 10 adds that the Ouaristoi were south of the Sudeten Mountains and west of Gabreta Forest. The sources thus agree on their location. But who were they? Allies, says Tacitus, of the Marcomanni and Quadi in their bold expulsion of the Celt ic Boii from their ancient home. Very likely, then, all three allies were not from that region, but moved into it in the time of Julius Caesar the previous century, the 1st BC . We do not know where they had been or what they had been called. One presumes that the Marcomanni border men took their name from being on the Danubian frontier. The Narisci are stated to be of the Suebi. That is all history tells us. Ptolemy states the names of some towns in the district, but what language they are or whether they were taken over or founded anew he does not say. The towns that might reasonably be interpreted as in the Variscan domain are Bicurgium , Menosgada , Marobudum , Setuacotum , Brodentia , Abilunum and Usbium on ... more details

RomanMilitary From its origin as a city state in History of Italy during Roman times Italy in the 8th century BC, to its rise as an Roman Empire empire covering much of Southern Europe , Western Europe , Near East and North Africa and fall in the 5th century AD, the political history of Ancient Rome was typically closely entwined with its military history . The core of the campaign history of the Roman military is an aggregate of different accounts of the Roman military s land battles, from its initial defence against and subsequent conquest of the city s hilltop neighbours in the Italian peninsula , to the ultimate struggle of the Western Roman Empire for its existence against invading Hun s, Vandals and Germanic Wars Germanic tribes after the empire s split into Eastern Roman Empire East and Western Roman Empire West . These accounts were written by various authors throughout and after the history of the Empire. Despite the later Empire s encompassing of lands around the Mediterranean Basin periphery of the Mediterranean Sea , naval warfare naval battles were typically less significant than land battles to the military history of Rome, due to its largely unchallenged dominance of the sea following fierce naval fighting during the First Punic War . The Roman army battled first against its tribal neighbours and Etruscan civilization Etruscan towns within Italy, and later came to dominate much of the Mediterranean and further afield, including the provinces of Roman Britain Britannia and History of Anatolia Asia Minor at the Empire s height. As with most ancient civilisations, Rome s military served the triple purposes of securing its borders, exploiting peripheral areas through measures such as imposing tribute on conquered peoples, and maintaining internal order. ref Trigger, Understanding Early Civilizations , p. 240 ref From the outset, Rome s military typified this pattern, and the majority of Rome s campaigns were characterised by one of two types the first is ... more details
