		At the Battle of Taginae (also known as the Battle of Busta Gallorum) in June/July 552, the forces of the Byzantine Empire under Narses broke the power of the Ostrogoths in Italy, and paved the way for the complete Byzantine conquest of the peninsula.
		Near the village of Taginae (traditionally located somewhere to the north of modern Gualdo Tadino), Narses encountered the Ostrogothic army commanded by King Totila, who had been advancing to intercept him.

	Battle of Taginae
		The Battle of Taginae brought an end to the long struggle between Byzantium and the Ostrogothic Kingdom in Italy.
		A Byzantine deserter in the Ostrogothic army rode out and issued a challenge to single combat, but was defeated, whereupon Totila himself rode out in front of his army and performed either a war dance or an elaborate series of equestrian exercises, admired by the men of both armies.
		Totila himself was killed either in the battle or in the subsequent pursuit.

	The Ostrogoths
		They formed a significant contingent of Attila's army, and at the Battle of Châlons in 451 found themselves on the opposite side to their Visigothic cousins, serving as allies of Aëtius, the Roman Patrician.
		The war which this triggered was to last, on and off, until 552, when first Belisarius and then Justinian's other great general, the eunuch Narses, succeeded in bringing down the Ostrogothic Kingdom, only after a recovery and inspirational fight-back by the last Ostrogothic leader of real substance, Totila.
		Totila was killed at the Battle of Taginae, but still the Goths did not surrender.

		Allied with the former vassal and rival, the Gepids and the Ostrogoths led by Theodimir broke the Hunnic power of Attila's sons in the Battle of Nedao in 454.
		The two branches of the nation were soon brought much more closely together, when the power of Theodoric was practically extended over a large part of Gaul and over nearly the whole of Spain when events forced him to become regent of the Visigothic kingdom of Toulouse.
		Totila was slain in the Battle of Taginae in July 552 and his followers Teia, Aligern, Scipuar, Gibal were all killed or surrendered in the Battle of Mons Lactarius in October 552 or 553.

	Rance, Procopius, and the Advantages to Re- and Close Reading, 23/04/06, Conor's blog (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		But, the article focuses on one battle – though he discusses and refers to many other parts of Procopius' narrative – and includes an important discussion of Late Roman tactics, and in particular, the importance of infantry in Late Roman army.
		One thing that Rance has done is look at the battle in isolation, and treated not just the narrative, its tactics, strategic importance, and place within late Roman warfare, but he also discussed the factional and fictional elements in Procopius' narrative.
		I haven't yet decided whether I should look at the non-fictional elements of his battle narratives; at present I'm not discussing the battles on their own – though when I'm doing the research I do look at each independently – but rather topically.

		They battled with, and temporarily subjugated, the ancestors of the Slavs (there were many Gothic loanwords in proto-Slavic), who lived between the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea and ultimately settled in 'Scythia' a vast undefined region that includes modern Ukraine and Belarus (called Oium by Jordanes).
		However, the Visigoths were defeated in battle near the modern Italy-Slovenia border that summer, and then routed in the Battle of Naissus that September.
		King Alaric II, the conqueror of Hispania, was killed in battle, and after a temporary retreat to Narbonne, Visigoth nobles spirited his heir, the child-king Amalaric to safety across the Pyrenees.

	"Historic" battles at Breakthrough 2004 (long) - Fanaticus Forum
		First, on Sunday the 10th, Denny Hartung and Craig Steed were kind enough to test two scenarios for me. The first was the battle of Chalons, fought in 451 AD between the Romans and their allies, and the Huns, Goths and Gepids under the command of Attila.
		This is a fascinating battle that featured many of the most famous knights and captains of the 14th Century, and historically a triumph for Edward’s English longbowmen.
		I allocated 15 elements per side for this battle too, because I needed to include several extra blade elements to model the commands of the major English captains, and gave the Castillan/French 2 extra light horse and an extra blade to represent their order of battle.

		So, it was with a little bit of consternation that I read Rance's recent article on battle in Procopius, and more specifially, the battle of Taginae in 552.
		First, as I've come to expect from Rance's work, it's well written, carefully researched, and full of some interesting and important points.
		Because of the structure of the 'Wars', it's hard to classify his work as either linear or otherwise.
