The Lowestoft Dark Age Society was formed in the summer of 1986, firstly under the working name of The Dawnfire Folk, then the H.O.R.D.E and most recently The Barbaricum, the name changes reflecting the changes in the personnel and aims in the group.
"Barbaricum" is the roman word for the area outside their empire - the land of the Barbarians.
To the Romans, a barbarian was simply that; someone from outside the empire and not as we use the word today, to denote an ignorant, bloodthirsty, brutal savage.

Whatever damage John and the Ethiopians succeeded in inflicting on the Malwa at Barbaricum, the true purpose of that bombardment was to divert attention from Belisarius' doings.
The area of the ship where he had been standing was half-illuminated by the flames of the fireships drifting into Barbaricum's harbor.

 1.1. Barbarous Europe, and it cultural worlds.
Hence, "barbarians", from the point of view of Rome are peoples and tribes of Europe, yet not had time to perceive an antiques culture (or it is active opposed to this).
This opposition was promoted also by that the Roman world and Barbaricum belonged to various types of culture: The first - to type of culture of the antique policy, the second - to type of culture of cattlemen - nomads (Kagan, 2000, v.1, 162-165).
Though traditionally nomads name Turkish-Mongolian peoples of the Central Asia, it is necessary to recognise, that the expanded understanding of the term including numerous vagrant peoples allows see the nomadic world as the global history-cultural phenomenon.

This vast territory, which the Romans disparagingly called barbaricum, is the home of numerous primitive nations.
Beyond the borders of the Empire, however, to the East and North of the continent, stretch the largely unexplored territories of the uncivilized nations, who are notorious for their extreme brutality and savagery.
Contemptuously called barbaricum by the Romans, it was here that the forces rallied which would eventually cause the fall and decline of the mighty Roman Empire.

Numerous finds of Roman origin from about 50 BC to the end of the 5th century AD in the European barbaricum indicate that close relations between the Imperium Romanum and its neighbours existed.
Since the end of the 1980s all central European countries whose territories once were completely or partly outside the borders of the Roman Empire take part in this project.
The "Römisch-Germanische Kommission des Deutschen Archäologischen Instituts" is responsible for the project and is now preparing a Web-Platform for the "Corpus of Roman finds in the European Barbaricum - Germany".

The remains of the Celtic settlements are found in the areas of the central European countries.
The people who inhabited these place in the period of the Barbaricum and the Roman Empire are somewhat descendants of the Celtic tribes who established their sites from 600 BC up to 100 AD.
I personally believe it may be as well interesting to discover more about this period in the areas the participating schools are located as it is to learn new fact about the period when amber trade flourished.

Its location in the northeastern corner of the canabae, across from the Barbaricum on the other site of the Danube, was supposed to demonstrate the monumentality and power of the Roman Empire.
Public buildings of the governor's administration and the houses of high-ranking officials occupied the nothern zone of the canabae on the Óbuda bank of the Danube branch separated by the island.
The surface decorated by the contrasting effects of white limestone and fl basalt, the rythmic elegance of simple geometric forms certainly showed the cultural superiority of Rome to visiting delegations from the Barbaricum.

With the financial support of the "Aktion Österreich-Tschechische Republik" (Project 33p16), the ÖAW and the "Stadtarchäologie Vienna" it has been possible not only to extend the regional frame of the project to the area adjoining the Limes (Barbaricum), but also to carry out further specific petrographic analyses besides a stamp-typology based classification of the material.
Like in Unterlaa the archaeometrical research was entrusted to R. Sauer in cooperation with the "Institut für Konservierungswissenschaften und Restaurierungstechnologie, Abteilung Archäometrie der Universität für Angewandte Kunst" (B. Pichler) to guarantee the best possible comparability between the already carried out analyses and the recent research.
On the basis of these local reference groups the next problem to be solved was how "non-local" or single stamps and fabrics which had been found in the neighbouring village could be explained.

Dabei wird der Begrenzung der Gewalt durch die Weisheitslehren des Alten Testamentes gebührende Rechnung getragen, denn in den Diskussionen um die Zusammenhänge zwischen Alkoholrausch und Gewalt spielten die biblischen Argumentationskonzepte während des gesamten Mittelalters eine tragende Rolle.

 Against Rome PC Video Game Review by AceGamez
The Roman Empire has expanded, countries have fallen and the Roman Legions march relentlessly towards the four corners of the world.
It is the time of migration of nations (200-450AD) and the Roman legions have reached the lands they called Barbaricum, land of the savage barbarians, united by only one factor; their hatred of Rome.
Against the Roman legions, strand three major tribes, the Celtic warriors of Britain, the Teutonic tribes of northern Europe and the savage Asian Hun.

The Greeks were the first to consider, in the European culture history, the theoretical concept of the Barbarian.
In order to have a complete image the semantic evolution of the term we must add that the latin nouns "barbarus" and "barbaricus" have had a derived word, "barbaricum".
The Roman world appears as an extraordinary system of ideas and values put together in order to create the ideal type of the human being.

Three finds catalogues concentrating on the former East Germany are already published, Lower Saxony is at print stage and catalogues for Poland, Bohemia and Slovakia are pending.
The analysis of the vast amount of data from north-western Barbaricum had led to new and very surprising results.
These finds and a close evaluation of the contemporaneous historical sources prove that the relationship between the Roman Empire and her Barbarian neighbours was far more complex than the rather simplified thesis of a continuously expanding, peaceful cross frontier trade.

 - Chapter 11
The Indus valley was fertile, true, but Belisarius was quite certain that Link would order a scorched earth campaign in the valley once the Romans and Persians arrived at Barbaricum and began their march upriver to the Malwa heartland.
The Malwa had no real chance of holding Barbaricum and the coast, once Belisarius arrived at the Indus delta.
The shocking and unexpected destruction of their great army in Mesopotamia the year before had forced the Malwa to concentrate on fortifying their own homeland, and to shelve—at least for a time—any plans for conquest.

One portion of this great Empire, the Occidental or western, embraced countries west of Italy, namely, the western shores of the Mediterranean, Italy, Gaul, Spain and the northern shores of Africa.
To these must be added the northern "Barbaricum" or the Germanic territories, along with Pannonia, Dacia, lllyria and Moesia.
Though geographically these latter provinces were not situated in the West, they were well Romanized and Rome considered them part of the Western Empire.

One of the factors involved in creating this fear must have been the demarcation of the border.
That is, the barbarian had to know where he was leaving the barbaricum and entering the forbidden, civilized territory of Rome.
