Battle of Abrittus
The Battle of Abrittus (now Razgrad, Bulgaria), also known as the Battle of Forum Terebronii, occurred in Scythia Minor in early June, 251, between the Roman Empire and Goths under King Cniva. The Romans were defeated, and Emperors Decius and his son Herennius Etruscus were both killed during battle, largely owing to the failure of the general Trebonianus Gallus to attack aggressively.
