This list covers the Gepids (named according to a humorous Goth from “gepanta”, meaning slow, sluggish or thick) from their first appearance on the Roman Danube frontier until their annihilation by the combined armies of Lombards and Avars. They were subjugated by the Huns in 375 AD and provided a large allied contingent in Attila’s army, but then led the rebel Germans who crushed his successors at the Nedao in 454 AD. They were very similar to Goths, but differed in appearance by wearing their hair in long braids in front. Grave goods suggest the Gepids had three classes, a rich upper class fighting mounted with long lances, a middle class of infantry spearmen whose weapons included heavy throwing spears and a poor class fighting as archers.
