Herules



The Herules (or Heruli) were an East Germanic tribe who lived north of the Black Sea apparently near the Sea of Azov, in the third century AD, and later moved (either wholly or partly) to the Roman frontier on the central European Danube, at the same time as many eastern "barbarians" during late antiquity, such as the Goths, Huns, Scirii, Rugii and Alans.
