[1] Theophylact Simocatta,
Histories 1.8.1; on the peace between the Avars and the Romans, concluded in the spring of 584 but later shattered by devastating Avar raids (autumn of 586) into Scythia and Moesia; cf. de Boor (53) and Whitby (29-30). Scythia and Moesia are regions along the lower Danube; cf. Whitby (260, map). On the Avars, see
alpha 18 generally. Theophylact invokes an uncommon metaphorical use of the headword; the alliance was being
debased or
disrupted.
