Iohannidos seu De bellis Libycis libri VIII
Very interesting commentary regarding central north Africa in the post roman, pre islamic period. I Went through it in great detail but it offers more questions than answers.
The worship of a Neo kemetic/Neo Punic/Berber/Garamantean god "Gurzil" is particularly fascinating. He appears to be at once a worshiped deity and some kind of physical weapon. It seems that "Gurzil" was brought into battles and deployed against the enemies of his people.
Perhaps he was a semi mobile shrine like the one dedicated to Nerthus and perhaps it doubled as some formation shattering battering ram. In any event it didn't appear to be extremely effective.
Flavius Cresconius Corippus is interesting man himself. One of the last East Roman functionaries who spoke Latin as his primary language. Perhaps the looming extinction of his culture group is what made him so sympathetic to the relatively unknown post Roman/liberated client states in northern Africa.
