Note 99 — Chapter I · ODOACER TO THE TRIUMPH OF NARSES [476-568 A.D.]
Reading edition
[Tufa was his name; he first left Odoacer for Theodoric; then deserted back again. Hodgkin compares his defection to Marshal Ney’s going over to Napoleon when he returned in 1815. Later Tufa was killed in a feud with another deserter from Theodoric, Frederic the Rugian.]
