Hun, Alan, Avar, and other Steppe Nomad Movements
#38
That's a fair answer as I just wanted to know whether these were theories (educated theories at that) but all we really have is Olympiodorus's fragment mentioning Charaton and Donatus. In regard to Uldin he seems to have made a mess of things with his allies as Orosius mentions that there was tension and fighting between the Alans and the Huns and Radagaisus seems to have fallen out with Uldin as well as Vandals, so Uldin comes across as arrogant but that is only my theory. :-)
