Notes:
Oulith (presumably the same man as Oullibos) was probably a Goth, evidently in Roman service, and rebelled ca. 469-470; cf. PLRE II s.v. Vllibos. As recorded by John of
Antioch fr. 205 Müller (now fr. 297 Roberto), he was killed by fellow Goth rebel Anagastes (cf.
alpha 1818); cf. Blockley (368-369).
