Adrianople, Thrace · AD 378
The Day an Emperor Vanished
The Battle of Adrianople was fought on 9 August AD 378 near Adrianople, modern Edirne in European Turkey. Gothic refugees, allowed across the Danube two years before and then badly treated by Roman officials, had risen in revolt. The emperor Valens marched against them without waiting for his nephew Gratian, the western emperor, who was coming with reinforcements. The historian Ammianus Marcellinus, a former officer, tells the story in Book XXXI of his history.
The Gothic leader Fritigern had drawn up his wagons in a great circle on high ground. Valens's men arrived after a long march in the heat, hungry and thirsty, while the Goths set the fields on fire to add to their misery. Talks were still going on when some Roman units attacked without orders. At that moment the Gothic cavalry under Alatheus and Saphrax returned and struck. Ammianus says the Roman left pushed up to the wagons but, left without support, was overwhelmed, and the infantry were so crowded they could barely draw their swords. Only about a third of the army escaped. Valens fell; Ammianus reports two stories of his death, and in neither was his body recovered.
The piece
The plate shows a sunburnt Thracian plain with smoke drifting from grass fires. The wagon circle sits on its hill at the top like a fortress. Blue arrows drive down from it onto the red block of the Roman infantry, the Gothic horse sweeps in from the left, and the Roman cavalry stands strung out and late.
