Jordanes wrote Romana, about the history of Rome, but his best-known work is his Getica, which was written in Constantinople[3] about 551 AD.[4] Along with Isidore of Seville's Historia Gothorum, it is one of only two extant ancient works dealing with the early history of the Goths. Jordanes was asked by a friend to write Getica as a summary of a multi-volume history of the Goths by the statesman Cassiodorus that existed then but has since been lost. Kulikowski[15][16] argue in their works that Jordanes developed in Getica the history of Getic and Dacian peoples mixed with a lot of fantastic deeds.[clarification needed] Caracalla (in 214) received "Geticus Maximus" and "Quasi Gothicus" titles following battles with Getae and Goths.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-3584.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-3584.txt
