Talk:Charudes

Anyone got an etymology for this? It probably is not "the hard men" or "the tough guys" because if the Horder are the Charudes, we have to account for the presence of the u, which was never there in the etymology of "hard."

Intro and BG / RG
I have rewritten the intro and most of the section based on Bellum Gallicum and the Res Gestae. I did not touch the rest of the article, although I find its rather unencyclopaedic style unfortunate. What is more critical, however, is the complete lack of references / sources for the following two sections. They reek well of WP:OR and need the work of someone who at least can get their hands on a copy of the RGA or on some Scandinavian local history. Trigaranus (talk) 00:55, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

The Danish city of Arhus was founded by the Charudes
The Charudes as founders of the Danish city of Arhus? In the Wikipedia article for the city it's described as founded by vikings in the eight century. Perhaps a more tentative approach to the claim may be in order.

East or West Jutland?
THe lead says:
 * on the east coast of the Cimbrian peninsula (see Hardsyssel)

However, the Cimbrian peninsula is what today is called Jutland, and Hardsyssel is/was on the West coast of Jutland. Which is it? Nø (talk) 06:28, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
