Translation Finally, after Lupus was killed in this way, as we have related, Arnefrit, his son, sought to obtain the dukedom at Forum Julii in the place of his father. But fearing the power of king Grimuald, he fled to the slavic peoples in Carnuntum, which they corruptly call Carantanum . When he came afterwards with the Slavs, as if about to resume the dukedom by their means, he was killed when the Friulans attacked him at the fortress of Nemae (Nimis), which is not far distant from Forum Julii.
Summary Arnefrit, the son of the duke Lupus of Forum Julii, fled to the Slavs in Carantania.
