Ataulf
king of the Visigoths
Years: 375 - 415
Ataulf (sometimes Athavulf, Atawulf, or Athaulf — "noble wolf" — Latinized as Ataulphus) is king of the Visigoths from 410 to 415.
The modern historian of the Goths, Herwig Wolfram, summarizes the last seven years of his life, the only ones that we can follow: "within that period he developed from a tribal chief to a late antique statesman."
(Wolfram, History of the Goths (1979, tr.
1988) p.
164.)
