Lacringi
Years: 200BCE - 200
The Lacringi are a Germanic people mentioned in ancient history for their role in the border wars conducted by the peoples along the Danube against the emperor, Marcus Aurelius.
Julius Capitolinus in his Life of Marcus Antoninus tells us (Chapter 22) that the Lacringes were part of the general invasion over the Danubian border.
Cassius Dio (Epitome of Rome, Book 72, Chapter 11, 12), relates their fate after Marcus Aurelius fought the invaders to a stand-off.
