A coalition of Vandals, Suebes and Alans crossed the Rhine, marauded through Gaul for two years, crossed the Pyrenees in 409 and conquered Hispania, where each federation maintained its realm for the next 20 years (Courtis 1955, Strzelczyk 1993Gil Egea 1999;von Rummel 2003;Berndt 2007;Castritius 2007;Berndt-Steinacher 2008b;von Rummel 2010;Conant 2012;Eger 2012;Modéran 2014;Vössing 2014;Steinacher 2016;Vössing 2018). Several losing battles against the Visigoths, who acted by order of the Roman Empire, characterise these years (Castritius 2007, 58-72;Modéran 2014, 76-91;Steinacher 2016, 67-76).…”

The Vandals left no origo gentis even though history is an essential factor for the construction of group identity. But the creation of memory in the Vandal kingdom in North Africa can be reconstructed with archaeological sources. For this an attempt by looking for visualisations in the form of images and inscriptions in Vandal Period Africa is made and interpreted against the background of “creating memory”. These observations are based on “official” visualisations. They are a sort of propaganda and because of this are contained within the content of the ideological superstructure. The created memory is addressed to the various groups living under Vandal rule. It is addressed to the former Roman administration, to the inhabitants of Carthage and Christianity as a whole. Only in the private sphere could the tradition of a family genealogy be seen, most probably needed for legitimation – and, if there was a need for this, it points to internal conflicts.
