Greetings all,
On this day we reflect with sadness on the Vandal and Alans tribes crossing
the Pyrenees mountains to the Roman province of Hispania, which
they wrested from Roman control on October 13th in 409 AD:
In 551 AD during the reign of Emperor Justinian I, part of Hispania
would later be briefly re-taken from the Visigoths by an army under the
command of Petrus Marcellinus Felix Liberius.This reconquest recovered
an area along the Mediterranean
coast roughly corresponding to the ancient province of Baetica, known as
Spania.
-Marcus Cassius Julianus
