  • The Amali were one of the leading dynasties of the Goths, a Germanic people who confronted the Roman Empire in its declining years in the west. They were also called the Amals, Amaler, or Amalings and were at one point considered highest in rank among Gothic fighters and royal dignity. According to Gothic legend, the Amali were descended from an ancient hero whose deeds earned him the title of Amala or "mighty. " However, the Goths branched into two groups around the year 200: the Ostrogoths and the Visigoths. And by 395 their histories had become significantly separated. Edward Gibbon writes, in the History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (Chapter 31, footnote 160): "the true hereditary right to the Gothic sceptre was vested in the Amali; but those princes, who were the vassals of the Huns, commanded the tribes of the Ostrogoths in some distant parts of Germany or Scythia. " Therefore, in this vacuum, it would be their rivals, the Balti dynasty, predominant among the Visigoths in Italy and Gaul, that would take the Visigothic leadership over all Germanic peoples and rise to become the supreme group of royal power and dignity. For it was Alaric the Visigoth, a member of the Balti dynasty, who would be the leader of his people in the sacking of Rome in 410 CE. This success, and the dynasty of kings Alaric created, heightened tensions between the two families, leading to the Amali usurping the Visigothic throne in 415, making Sigeric king. But Sigeric's reign lasted but seven days before he was assassinated and the Balti dynasty resumed a powerful rule that didn't end until 531. In light of this, it can be generally said that, beginning in 395, the Amali was the royal house of the Ostrogoths and the Balti was the royal house of the Visigoths, with the Visigoths eventually surpassing the prestige of the once highly regarded Amali . At least, two families claimed they had descended from Amali. First family was Billungs, Dukes of Saxony. They were also known as Amelungs or von Ömlingen. Another family was Solovjovs, Barons of Russian Empire from 1727 (in German speaking sources known as von Solowhoff or Solowhoff von Greutungen). Solovjovs claimed Ermanaric was their ancestor.
  • Die Amaler waren ein gotisches Herrschergeschlecht, welches das Königtum bei den Ostgoten innehatte und unter Ermanarich im 4. Jahrhundert das ganze Gotenreich beherrscht haben soll. Ermanarich ist auch der erste historisch verbürgte Amaler. Die Rekonstruktion des Jordanes (Getica 79, wohl basierend auf Cassiodor) eines uralten Stammbaums ist hingegen nicht glaubwürdig und sehr problematisch . Der berühmteste aller Amaler war Theoderich der Große, welcher 493 in Italien ein (allerdings nur wenige Jahrzehnte Bestand habendes) Ostgotenreich erschuf. Das Geschlecht erlosch 536 mit dem Tode von Theodahad. Im Nibelungenlied, dem Heldenbuch und anderen altdeutschen Dichtungen heißen sie Amelungen, d. h. Abkömmlinge des Amala.
  • Les Amal sont avec les Balthes les deux principaux lignages royaux des Goths. La dynastie des Amaliens descend, selon leur tradition orale, du dieu suprême des Goths, Gaut traduit par le "verseur de semence", un des noms d'Odin à l'origine probable du nom de ce peuple. Bien que le christianisme (surtout sous sa forme arienne) commence à toucher les Goths à partir du IV siècle, cette famille royale conservera toute sa sacralité païenne. Cette dynastie sacrée donne des rois aux Ostrogoths jusqu'à Théodat, mort assassiné en 536. Elle s'éteint probablement avec la guerre dévastatrice opposant les Ostrogoths aux Byzantins entre les années 530 et 50. La princesse burgonde Clotilde, devenu reine franque, est liée au lignage Amal mais aussi au lignage Balthès. Le patronyme "Amal" se retrouve dans la composition de nombreux noms d'origine wisigothique comme: Amalric (Amal-rig) Amalbert (Amal-Behrt) Amalsuintha Amalberge,
  • Gli Amali erano una delle dinastie nobili dei Goti, considerati come i più valorosi tra i guerrieri e i sovrani gotici. Stando ad una loro leggenda, gli Amali discenderebbero da un antico eroe le cui gesta gli valsero il titolo di Amala (ossia "potente"). In seguito alla divisione dei Goti in Visigoti ed Ostrogoti, avvenuta nel III secolo, gli Amali divennero la dinastia reale degli Ostrogoti, mentre i Balti lo furono per i Visigoti, sopravvalendo sui primi per prestigio e potere. Alla morte di Teodato, avvenuta nel 536, gli Amali si estinsero definivamente. La stirpe degli Amali fornì i seguenti re ostrogoti: Teodemiro, fino al 474 Teodorico il Grande, 474 - 526 Atalarico, 526 - 534 Teodato, 534- 536 Inoltre tra gli Amali si annoverano anche le regine Amalasunta e Matasunta.
  • Amaliene var en ledende undergruppe av vestgoterne, et germansk folkeslag som konfronterte Romerriket i dets nedgangstid i vest. De ble regnet for å være de viktigste og fremste blant de gotiske krigerne og viktigst i kongelig verdighet. Men det var Alarik, en balti, som ledet sitt folk i plyndringen av Roma i 410. Denne suksessen, og dynastiet av konger han skapte, høynet rivaliseringen med amaliene som ranet til seg tronen i 415 og gjorde Sigerik til vestgoternes konge. Men Sigeriks styre varte bare i syv dager før han ble myrdet og erstattet med en balti. Edward Gibbon skriver i History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (kapittel 31, fotnote 160): den virkelige arvelige retten til det gotiske septeret var lagt ned hos amaliene, men de prinsene, som var hunnernes vassaller, ledet stammene til østgoterne i noen fjerne deler av Germania eller Skytia. Det ser ut til at det var i dette vakuumet at baltiene, dominerende i Italia og Gallia, klarte å overta vestgoternes lederskap.
