[gothic-l] Gepids

Steve,

Will later provide you with a few references to
classical sources of the Gepids. One is of course Jordanes _Getica_.

One explanation of the people name is that it stems from "geptanta" = slow, because they were on the last ship of King Berig to arrive at Gothiscandza.

Gepidically
