Шаблон:Infobox military person Alathar (fl. 513) was an Eastern Roman magister militum of Hunnish descent.

Biography

Alathar was appointed Magister militum per Thracias by Anastasius I Dicorus. He succeeded the deceased Cyrillus in this capacity.[1] It is possible that he was appointed magister militium to attract the Huns in the army of rebel Vitalian to Anastasius' side.[2]

Alathar was defeated by Vitalian during the latter's rebellion. He was described as a "Scythian", a term that at the time was used to indicate the Huns. J. B. Bury, Ernst Stein and Georges Tate read "Scythian" as meaning "Hun" in this case.[1][3][4]

In Hun/Hungarian legends, Aladár is the son of Etele (Attila) and the German princess Kriemhild.[5]
