Marcellin. Placido solo cos. Theodoricus Triarii filius rex Gothorum-usque ad
Anaplum IV o Urbis militario advenit: nulli tamen Romanorum noxius continuo
reversus est. Porro in Illyricum properans, dum inter suorum moventia plaustra
progedintur, jacentis super carpentum teli acumine et pavescentis equi sui impulsione
fixus transverberatusque interiit. Jornandes de regn. p.710 Theodericus Triarii filius
cognomento Strabo rex Gothorum a Sciris suis usque ad Apulum [lege Anaplum] IV o
Urbis militario armatus advenit; nulli tamen Romanorum noxius continuo est reversus.
Porro in Illyricumproperans &c.-interiit, et reip. diem festum morte sua donavit.
Paulus Diac. XVI p.556 Theodericus cognomento Strabo Triaci [sic] filius cum magna
Otrogotthorum multitudine usque ad IV am Urbis milliarium armatus advenit; nulli
tamen Romanorum noxius continuque ad Illyricum reversus exstinctus est. where
Paulus mistakes this for an attack upon Rome. This march to CP. is understood by
Valesius ad Malchum leg.p.86 D to be that of which Malchus speaks and which
coincided with the revolt of Marcian; and accordingly he brings down that revolt to
481. But Tillemont tom.6 p. 498.505 justly supposes them to be different transactions.
Theoderic thrice approached CP. First in a hostile manner in 478; secondly as an ally
in 479 at the time of the revolt. After his second approach he retired to Thrace; after
his third he is marching to Illyricum. For the death of Theoderic conf. Evagrium
III.25 Theophanem p.108 D. He is described by Jornandes Get. c.52 Walemir
Theodemir et Widemir-missa legatione ad imperatorem [cir. A.D.460] vident
Theodericum Triarii filium, et hunc genere Gothico alia tamen storpe non Amala
procreatum, omnino florentem cum suis Romanorumque amicitiis junctum &c.

Balas or Palasch succeeds Firoze. Agathias IV.27 p.137C-138 A having described the
reign of Yezdejerd A.D.440-457 (conf.a.399) thus proceeds: Firoze becomes king after
him, a daring (courageous) man but very warlike.-He was killed at the campaign
against tNephtalites.- along with him the army was destroyed at the 24 th year of the
reign, and he finishes his life without glory, just as he was outmaneuvered by the
Huns.-And as about their brother Balas concerned after he ascended to power
nothing seems worth writing in wars and the battle arrangement, because was not
only meek and having mild manners-but also because he lived a short life; he spent
on power only four years. For this purpose Cabbades son of Firoze, who fought
many wars against the Romans, he erected trophies against the neighboring
barbarians. Theophanes p.91 C 106 D assigns to Firoze 24, to Balas 4 years; and
Syncellus p.360 D, although transposing the names. Abulpharajius p.92 agrees with
Agathias in the time of the accession of Firoze: sum initium imperatii Leonis regnavit
in Persas Phiruz Yazdejirdi filius annos XXVII. The reign of Firoze his wars with the
Scythians and his death are related by Procopius Pers. I.3 p.9A-14A. Agathias
computes 78 y 4 m from the death of Sapor at the close of 379 to the accession of Firoze:
