The Gepids were an East Germanic tribe that inhabited the region of modern-day Romania, Hungary, and Serbia during the early medieval period, sharing language and religious practices with other Germanic groups like the Goths and Vandals. They were significant enough to mint coins in their territory, including at Sirmium, indicating they maintained organized political and economic systems during their time in southeastern Europe.

Die Gepiden (auch Gepidi, Gebidi; lateinisch Gipedae, Gepidae) waren ein ostgermanischer Stamm im Gebiet der heutigen Staaten Ungarn, Serbien und Rumänien, der möglicherweise mit den Goten verwandt war. Sie wurden bekannt, als sie unter Ardarich in der Schlacht am Nedao (454 oder 455) die Söhne Attilas aus dem heutigen Ungarn vertrieben. Das danach errichtete Gepidenreich an der mittleren Donau bestand noch bis ins 6. Jahrhundert.
