1. Origo Gothica

The Goths, Part I

c. 100 BCE to 271 CE

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Dark Ages Podcast!

The Goths appear on the Roman border and quickly become a force to be reckoned with.  This episode deals with the Goths origins, early history, conflicts with Rome in the third century, and some things about their culture. Who was a Goth when he was at home? (Spoiler, he didn’t wear black or think much about vampires.)
