Comment	When the Herules retreated from Greece they were chased by the emperor Gallienus who with the decisive help of the Dalmatian cavalry defeated them at the River Nestus (Spring 268). Following the account of George Synkellos, after the battle, Naulobatus, ὁ τῶν Αἰρούλων ἡγούμενος (“the leader of the Ailouroi”) surrendered to Gallienus, who rewarded him with the rank of the consulate.
