Abstract: Late Antiquity is a moment of very important transformations in the Roman world. The institutional and social advancement of the Christian Church was brought about through its alliance with the Roman state. This made Christianity the official religion of the Empire under Theodosius. Simultaneously Germanic populations were incorporated into the late imperial society. A great challenge was posed to these people, or rather, the interaction of these agents to the Roman-Hellenistic Paideia, the late antique cultural world. Current article reflects on the efforts made by late former historical knowledge to incorporate within its narrative dominions the tradition brought by the ‘barbarians’. Since the fifth century they had settled and founded many kingdoms in what was, until then, the western part of theRoman Empire. The above will be discussed through the historical works of Gregory of Tours and Jordanes.
