  • Elemund (Latin: Elemundus, died 548) was king of the Gepids, an east Germanic people, during the first half of the 6th century. He may have been the son of Gunderit, himself son of Ardaric ascended by overthrowing a rival Ardariking branch. Based on archaeological evidence, István Boná believes that in the 520s or 530s Elemund must have consolidated his power in Transylvania by submitting or removing minor Gepid rulers. Elemund had a son and daughter, Ostrogotha and , respectively; the latter was given in marriage to Wacho, the king of the Lombards, in 512. The reasons behind the marriage were multiple: on one side it protected the two kings from the threat represented by the Ostrogothic Kingdom, while on the other it reduced the danger represented to the Lombard king by , a pretender to the Lombard throne. Wacho was eventually to remarry after Austrigusa's death, but this did not compromise the good relations existing between Lombards and Gepids. Elemund died of illness in 548 and was succeeded by Thurisind, while the legitimate heir was forced into exile. Ostrogotha found hospitality among the Lombards, but was killed in 552 by his host, King Audoin, as part of a plan to ease relations between Gepids and Lombards. (en)

  • Гелемунд (Элемунд; лат. Elemundus; умер ранее 549 года) — король гепидов в первой половине VI века. О том, когда Гелемунд получил власть над гепидами, сведений в исторических источниках нет. Предыдущим известным гепидским правителем был Тразарих, последнее упоминание о котором датировано 504 годом. Гелемунд скончался от болезни не позднее 549 года. Он оставил после себя единственного сына Устригота, из-за своего малолетства отстранённого от власти Торисвинтом, который сам занял престол гепидов. Устригот долгое время безуспешно пытался возвратить себе престол, опираясь в этом на помощь лангобардов, но в первой половине 550-х годов по условию лангобардско-гепидского мира, заключённого после битвы на поле Асфельд, был убит по приказу короля Аудоина. Скорее всего, дочерью Гелемунда была Аустригуза, в 512 году ставшая второй женой короля лангобардов Вахо. (ru)
