Alamanni.
    [60] The victories are recorded in Optatianus, Carm . 6.18–21 and Zosimus, HN 2.21. Orig. Const . 21 describes the victory as Gothic, but the numismatic and epigraphic evidence is decisive.

    [76] Tribute: Eusebius, Vita Const . 4.5.2; Ammianus, RG 17.12. Military service in 332: Eusebius, Vita Const . 4.5 is vague on the Goths and entirely explicit about the Sarmatians being forced to serve in the army as a condition of peace ( Vita Const . 4.6); cf. the late testimony of Jordanes, Getica 112 (Goths send 40,000 troops as a result of the treaty). Service on a case-by-case basis thereafter: Libanius, Or . 59.89 for 348; Ammianus, RG 20.8.1 for 360 and id. 23.2.7 for 363.
