LACRINGI

LACRINGI mentioned by Capitolinus (M. Antonin. 100.22), by Dio Cassius (Dio Cass. 81.12), and by Petrus Patricius (Excerpt. Legat. p. 124, ed. Bonn), along with the ASTINGI and BURI. They were either Dacian or on the Dacian frontier, and: are known only from having, in the Marcomannic war, opposed a body of invading Astings, and, having so done, contracted an alliance with Rome.
