Short description

A freemen unit armed with swords that excels at prolonged combat, and whose love of the melee makes them eschew the use of any missile weapons.

Description

Jordanes described the Gauts as a “race of men bold and quick to fight,” and that was compared to other inhabitants of Scandza who were already described as “surpassing the Germans in size and spirit, and fighting with the cruelty of wild beasts” (Jordanes, Getica, 22-24). Moreover, Jordanes described the Goths proper, progeny of the Gauts, as not the swiftest of foot, but exceptionally steadfast (Jordanes, Getica, 99-100, 117-118.). Tacitus in turn described the early Goths proper, the Gothones as fighting with short swords and round shields, and being obedient to strong kings. And he also suggested the same conditions were true in Scandinavia (Tacitus, Germania, 44-45.)
