About: Merogais

An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Merogais (Latin: Merogaisus, French: Ragaise) was an early Frankish king, who, along with his co-ruler Ascaric, is the earliest Frankish ruler known. He was an enemy of the Roman Empire. Merogais is mentioned in the Panegyrici latini (anonymous VI and VII) and by Eutropius and Eumenius. The very existence of Merogais depends on the manuscript reading of Johann Kaspar Zeuss. The sentence which names the two kings begins with Asacari or Assaccari in all manuscripts, but it ends with the corrupt forms cinere gaisique, cumero geasique, cymero craisique, and cymero caisique. Zeuss reads those sentences as ending respectively cum Neregaisique, cum Merogeasique, cum Merocraisique, and cum Merocaisique, each meaning as "and with Merogais".

dbo:abstract
  • Merogaisus war ein fränkischer Kleinkönig im 4. Jahrhundert. Über Merogaisus ist kaum etwas bekannt; er gehörte möglicherweise zum Stamm der Brukterer. Er wurde um 306 von Konstantin dem Großen besiegt und zusammen mit dem ebenfalls gefangenen Frankenkönig Ascaricus den Tieren im Amphitheater von Augusta Treverorum (dem heutigen Trier) vorgeworfen. Beide waren auf römisches Gebiet vorgedrungen, aber schließlich von Konstantin abgefangen und besiegt worden. Möglicherweise gehörte Merogaisus zusammen mit Merobaudes zu den ersten Repräsentanten der Merowinger. (de)

In 306 he and Ascaric led a Frankish raid across the Rhine into southern Gaul while Constantine the Great was campaigning against the Picts in Britannia. Apparently the two had made a previous agreement with Rome not to cross the border, since Constantine sought to punish them as traitors upon his return. The two chieftains were defeated, captured, and executed "for their past crimes", an act which "bound with fear the slippery loyalty of the whole race," according to one of the emperor's anonymous panegyrists. The execution took place in one of the chief cities of Gaul, probably Trier, and the two Franks and their followers were torn apart by animals in the amphitheatre before a large crowd. Their defeat was followed by the subjection of the Bructeri. (en)

В одном из «Латинских панегириков», написанном в 310 году, сообщается, что в 306 году Мерогей во главе войска вторгся на римские земли, но был побеждён Константином Великим и вместе с другим пленным королём франков Аскариком был брошен на растерзание зверям в Августы Треверорум (современный Трир). Об этих же событиях упоминается и в «Бревиарии от основания города» Флавия Евтропия. По некоторым предположениям, Мерогей вместе с Меробавдом был одним из первых представителей Меровингов. (ru)
