Historical background
The Alans were an Iranian-speaking horse people from the steppes north of the Caucasus who moved west with Huns, Goths and Vandals from the 4th century. Ammianus Marcellinus describes them as horsemen who scorned fighting on foot; axe-wielding infantry is not recorded for them and is a liberty of the game. Some of the Alans reached North Africa with the Vandals.
