Historical background
Among the Germanic peoples it was mostly the chiefs and their retinue who rode to war; Tacitus thought Germanic horses neither handsome nor fast and saw the Germans' strength in their infantry. Caesar nevertheless recruited Germanic horsemen, whom he came to value in Gaul. In the Migration Period cavalry gained weight among the Goths and other groups.
