Sign in to savethumb|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.
