SYAGRIUS (d. 487)

This article appears in Volume V26, Page 275 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SUS-TAV
SYAGRIUS (d. 487) , the last of the independent Roman administrators of Gaul, was the son of Aegidius, who had seized Gaul while Ricimer was master of
Italy
 . From 464 to 486 he governed that
part
  of Gaul which lies between the Maas, the
Scheldt
  and the Seine, and was termed " king of the Romans " by the
German
  invaders,
Franks
 , Burgundians and Visigoths, who already occupied the rest of Gaul. Defeated in 486 by Clovis, king of the Salian
Franks
 , at the
battle
  of Soissons,
Syagrius
  fled, leaving his
land
  at the mercy of the Franks. He sought
refuge
  with Alaric II., king of the Visigoths, at Toulouse, but Alaric imprisoned him instead of granting him
refuge
 , and delivered him up to Clovis. He was executed in 487, secretly and by the
sword
 , according to Gregory of Tours.
