thumb|The missorium (silver dish) of Gelimer (Bibliothèque nationale de France) Gelimer (original form possibly Geilamir, 480–553 AD), was a Germanic king who ruled the Vandal Kingdom in North Africa during classical antiquity from 530 to 534 AD. He became ruler on 15 June 530 AD after deposing his first cousin twice removed, Hilderic, who had angered the Vandal nobility by converting to Chalcedonian Christianity; most Vandals at the time were fierce Arian Christians.
The Eastern Roman Emperor Justinian I, who had supported Hilderic, soon declared war on the Vandals, ostensibly to restore Hilderic. In June 533 AD, Justinian sent an expeditionary force commanded by Belisarius which finally reached Africa in the beginning of September. Meanwhile, in Sardinia, which formed part of the Vandal domain, the governor Godas, a Goth, revolted against Gelimer and began to interact with Justinian as an independent ruler. Gelimer, ignorant or contemptuous of Justinian's plans, sent a large army which included the majority of his available men in Africa under his brother Tzazo to crush the rebellion, leaving the landing of Belisarius to be entirely unopposed.
