Filimer was an early Gothic king, according to Jordanes. He was the son of Gadaric and the fifth generation since Berig settled with his people in Gothiscandza. When the Gothic nation had multiplied Filimer decided to move his people to Scythia where they defeated the Sarmatians. They then named their new territory Oium, meaning "in the waterlands". This migration would have allegedly taken place about 2030 years before Jordanes wrote his "Origin of the Goths".

Tanausis was a legendary king of the Goths, according to Jordanes's Getica (5.47). The 19th-century scholar Alfred von Gutschmid assigned his reign to 1323 BC – 1290 BC.

Gadaric was a legendary king of the Goths. He is only mentioned twice in Getica by Jordanes. He is supposed to have been the fourth king after Berig, who ruled in Gothiscandza. His son Filimer is said to have let the Goths south. The historicity of Getica, to which this narrative belongs, is however controversial.
