When I visited the "Konflikt" exposition in Kalkriese - which is more interesting than the usual exposition - I saw
this inscription from Trier, which I had never seen before: a young Burgundian prince named Hariulf, who became bodyguard of a Roman emperor residing in Trier. Does anyone know more about it?
You might try: D. Hoffmann, "Wadomer, Bacurius und Hariulf", Mus. Helv. 35 (1978) pp. 307-318. I've never read it, so I don't know if it's the same Hariulf, though.

Yes, it's the same one. I don't have the article either, but I came across it in a cross-reference (Lee, A.D.: Information and Frontiers, p. 76 note 136). The instcription is also known as ILS 2814 and dated by Hoffmann to the last quarter of the 4th century (p. 317).
Let no one complain about the quality of the responses at RAT: two in this thread and a PM with splendid photos. Thanks all.
