Gripas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gripas was an Ostrogothic military commander. During the Gothic War of Justinian I he and Asinarius led an invasion into Dalmatia trying to capturing Salona.[1] They defeated their Byzantine opponent Mauricius and killed him but were defeated by his father Mundus.[1] Mundus died however and his army retreated but so did the Goths.[1] As the Byzantine army was reforming under Constantinianus Gripas led a Gothic force to Salona, successfully capturing it.[1] After hearing of reports emphasising the large size of Byzantine force moving towards him he retreated.[1] After retaking the city Constantinianus had its defences rebuilt.[1] Seeing his position was desperate Gripas returned to Ravenna.[1]
