skires

The Skires were a Germanic people originally established in Masuria, not far from present-day Lithuania. With the Bastarnes (another Germanic people), part of them emigrated towards the south around 230 A.D. and the two peoples settled on the shores of the Black Sea. After concluding a peace pact with the Romans, the Skires settled east of the Bastarnes domain.

The best known of the Skires was Odoacer who, between 473 and 476, seized Italy and deposed the last emperor, Romulus Augustulus, thus entering into legend as the one who had brought an end to the Western Roman Empire. But, a few years later, in 493, the Skires were themselves defeated and eliminated by the Ostrogoths, and Odoacer killed by the own hand of their king, Theodoric the Great.

For their part, the Skires who remained pagan in northern Europe survived in small numbers until the 13th century.
