More about the book

The work provides a crucial account of the origin and history of the Gothic people, serving as the only surviving contemporary resource on the subject. Written by Jordanes in the 6th century, it claims to summarize a more extensive account by Cassiodorus, whose original text is now lost. Additionally, it offers valuable insights into the early history and customs of the Slavs, making it a significant historical document for understanding both Gothic and Slavic cultures.
