- Ostrogoths: (often problematically denoted East Goths, as opposed to the West Goths or Visigoths) a Germanic tribe that influenced the political events of the late Roman Empire. They were originally called the Greutungi (probably meaning "Hill-fort people" – see Scandza), but this was soon replaced by Ostrogothi. The meaning of ostro- (from austro-) is presumably "shiny" rather than "eastern"
