 Battle of Argentoratum (Strasbourg) (357 AD)

By about AD 300, the Alamanni were regularly to be found amongst Roman forces as the wholesale barbarisation of the Roman Army began.
Throughout the Fourth Century, the Alamanni raided the Western Empire despite a series of defeats inflicted on them by Julian the Apostate, most notably at the Battle of Strasbourg (Argentoratum) in 357 where their leader, Chnodomar, was captured.
Neighboured by the all-conquering Franks in the north and west and by the Ostrogoths in the south, the Alamanni had nowhere to go and could not expand their lands.
