The Migration Period, also called the Barbarian Invasions or German: Völkerwanderung (wandering of the peoples), was a period of human migration that occurred roughly between 300 to 700 CE in Europe, marking the transition from Late Antiquity to the Early Middle Ages. https://www.worldhistory.org/Migration_Age/ #History #Goths #Huns #MigrationAge

A friend asks, "What is Neo-Gothic?"

The #Goths were a major geopolitical force from about 200 AD on, ruling much of the territory northeast of the #Roman #Empire, with a powerful and reasonably centralized government. Indeed, it was one of the few military-political entities in the world which could negotiate with #Rome on roughly equal terms. Today we know these people as the "elder Goths."

But around 375 AD, the #Huns crashed into the eastern edge of the #Gothic polity, bringing down their governmental and economic structure and driving uncounted refugees west. The Goths could at that point have been wiped away as so many other peoples had been in the Huns' ruthless march of conquest. Fortunately for them, the Eastern Roman #Emperor at the time, #Valens, gave them permission to settle along the Roman side of the #Danube, and they survived as a culture, albeit in a weakened state. Some commentators of the time claimed they were no longer truly Goths at all, but a new and lesser people, the "#Emos."

Of course they spent a lot of time being gloomy about this. Still, their fundamental nature was not to accept their fate passively: their cities may have lain in dust, but not for nothing was the refrain of one of their traditional songs, "I want more." So they rose, clad in leather and steel, and headed farther west ... conquering the Western Roman Empire in the process during the 5th Century. We divide them into #Visigoths and #Ostrogoths, but "neo-Goths" is a good catch-all phrase.

I hope this clears things up.

The Huns were a nomadic tribe prominent in the 4th and 5th century CE whose origin is unknown but, most likely, they came from "somewhere between the eastern edge of the Altai Mountains and the Caspian Sea, roughly modern Kazakhstan" (Kelly, 45). They are first mentioned in Roman sources by the historian Tacitus in 91 CE as living in the region around the Caspian Sea and, at this time, are not ...https://www.worldhistory.org/Huns/ #AttilatheHun #Huns #History

I'm very happy that this paper that Ulf Büntgen and I wrote together has finally come out. Using annually resolved #hydroclimate data we found that central Europe experienced increasingly dry summers from the 420 to the 450s CE (and beyond). This coincided with some of the most devastating raids by #Huns on #Roman territory. We argue that Huns used raiding as a buffering strategy to mitigate against dry summers which made it harder for them to pasture their herds. https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/drought-encouraged-attilas-huns-to-attack-the-roman-empire-tree-rings-suggest
