Priscus Attalus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 4 views

  • Priscus Attalus
    • Veronica Rodriguez
       
      Attalus was a roman senater. He made a deal with the barbarians. It was if rome gave it all the gold and silver they would get food back. But they did not have enough so they only got food for three days.

      Attalus he was made into a senator then an emporer i think. He had to get ALL the gold and valubales from the temples. Then Alaric said if they bring in everything he gives them 3 days of food. It didnt go well though. They started to starve after a while.
  • Priscus Attalus (d. after 416) was twice Roman usurper (in 409 and in 414), against Emperor Honorius, with Visigothic support. Priscus Attalus was a Greek from Asia whose father had moved to Italy under Valentinian I. Attalus was an important senator in Rome, who served as praefectus urbi in 409.

      At this time rome was in starvation. There was not enough food for everyone to eat. And even the royal people did not have enough food to eat. The food was with the barbarians.
    • julio hernandez
       
      The only reason the barbarians starved Rome was for the emperor to keep his part of the deal.The barbarians let Rome get food for three days for all the roman gold.Even all the gold wasnt enough to win their freedom.Only three days.

      the barbaians starved rome. priscus attalus (one of the senators) made a deal with the king of goths. the king of goths said if they give all the gold and silver to them they will let them free. so they gave them everything they had and the barabrians said tht wasnt enough. so barbarians said they will feed them only for three days until the barbarians get what they want

      The barbarians and goths made rome starve. They made Rome suffer the way they made them suffer when rome destroyed their place. Its the fairest it can get.

  • He held the title of emperor in Rome, during 409, and later in Bordeaux in 414. His 1two reigns lasted only a few months; the first one ended when Alaric believed it was hampering his negotiations with Honorius, and the second came to an end after he was abandoned by the Visigoths and eventually captured by Honorius' men. Attalus was obliged to participate in the triumph Honorius celebrated in the streets of Rome in 416, before finishing his days exiled in the Lipari Islands.

  • The Huns were a group of Eurasian nomads who, appearing from beyond the Volga, migrated into Europe c. 370 and built up an enormous empire in Europe.
  • The death of Rugila (also known as Rua or Ruga) in 434 left his nephews Attila and Bleda (also known as Buda), the sons of his brother Mundzuk (Hungarian: BendegĆŗz, Turkish: Boncuk), in control over all the united Hun tribes.
  • The barbarian nation of the Huns, which was in Thrace, became so great that more than a hundred cities were captured and Constantinople almost came into danger and most men fled from it. … And there were so many murders and blood-lettings that the dead could not be numbered. Ay, for they took captive the churches and monasteries and slew the monks and maidens in great numbers. (Callinicus, in his Life of Saint Hypatius)

  • n much of Western Europe, he is remembered as the epitome of cruelty and rapacity. However he is regarded as a hero and his name is revered and used in Hungary, Turkey and other Turkic-speaking countries in Central Asia. Some histories and chronicles describe him as a great and noble king, and he plays major roles in three Norse sagas: Atlakviưa; Vƶlsunga; and AtlamĆ”l.[citation needed] He is reported as being "short of stature, with a broad chest and a large head; his eyes were small, his beard thin and sprinkled with grey; and he had a flat nose and tanned skin..."[1]

  • An invasion of Alans, Suevi and Vandals moved from Gaul on 31 December 406, and arrived in Hispania in 409. In 408, Stilicho (after forcing the Roman Senate to pay 4,000 pounds of gold)[2] was arrested and executed by the order of Honorius, probably because of a court conspiracy against the Arian general. The Visigoths under their King Alaric I invaded Italy in 408, besieged Rome, and extorted from the city a ransom of 5,000 pounds of gold, 30,000 pounds of silver, 4,000 silken tunics, 3,000 hides dyed scarlet, and 3,000 pounds of pepper)[3], while Honorius in Ravenna did nothing.

      Honorius wasn't a real leader. He was more like a follower and because of his not very wise descions of his generals the western roman empire fell. Rome needed a strong and wise leader not a kid who will always be asking for help when he's the one that's suppose to help. Also a leader that can control his own situations , and do what he thinks is best for rome.
  • To counter Priscus, Honorius tried to negotiate with Alaric. Alaric withdrew his support for Priscus in 410, but the negotiations with Honorius broke down. Alaric again entered Italy and sacked Rome.
    • alexa puntiel
       
      Alaric just asked for some land for his people. They did need land to function, to live, and to grow their crops. I didn't think it was too much to ask for. All they wanted was the romans to treat them as their equals . Mostly it's the general's fault for trying to kill Alaric's troop and him just because of what happened in the past. Now for that stupid mistake Alaric and his men thought the emperor has betrayed him for the third time.
    • alexa puntiel
       
      Honorius wasn't very wise. Asking your senate about what to do? Uh, no not a very smart thing to do because this is what YOU want for the empire . No one else. The choices Honorius made was why the western roman empire fell. He didn't take charge nor did he act like a leader.
  • The most notable event of his reign was the assault and Sack of Rome on August 24 410 by the Visigoths under Alaric.
    • alexa puntiel
       
      Sack means to to rob, or burn down. That's exactly what alaric an his men were planning on doing. It's what Rome gets for not trying to accepet the barbarins , and for killing their people. The emperor wanted to negoaite ,but let's say some people can hold a gruge for years , and takes matters in their own hands to get revegne.
    • alexa puntiel
       
      During the sack of Rome Honorius' sister was taken by Alaric's men as houstche or captive. The sack of Rome was to me a terrible sight. I guess that's how it was back then. We learn from their mistakes , and make better choices unlike Honorius.
