    Balamber (Balamir) is only mentioned by Jordanes in his Getica,[1] abbreviated c. 550CE from memory of Cassiodorus's History of the Goths.[2] Jordanes simply called him "king of the Huns" (rex Hunnorum) and tells us the story of Balamber crushing the kingdom of Ostrogoths in around 375.[3]

    Balamber's story seems historically improbable.[4][5] He may well be a version of the better-attested Valamir, displaced in time and confused with stories of the Hunnic assault on the Goths.[6] Valamir/Valamer/?a?aµe?/Balamber was an important Gothic vassal of Attila the Hun in the 400s,[7] who after Attila's death resisted the Huns and consolidated his hold over a large group of Goths
  • He died in the year 390, he was 63 years old.
