Nu ser jag hur du tänker.. Suehans är en fattig
ras bredvid Skridfinnarna. Det står ingenstans att övriga stammar skulle sedan vara en delmängd av Suehans. Om det vore så skulle ju hela Skandinavien, alla stammar (nationer) inklusive Daner mm ingå i begreppet Suehans?

Sen är ju Suetidi en av dessa nationer. Daner, Suetidi och Gautigothi (m fl) likställes och är då en delmängd av Suehans. Detta är inte likt Adams beskrivning alls.
But still another race dwells there,
the Suehans, who, like the Thuringians, have splendid
horses. Here also are those who send through innumer-
able other tribes the sapphire colored skins to trade for
Roman use. They are a people famed for the dark beauty
of their furs and, though living in poverty, are most richly
clothed.
Then comes a throng of various nations, Theu- 22
stes, Vagoth, Bergio, Hallin, Liothida. All their habita-
tions are in one level and fertile region. Wherefore they
are disturbed there by the attacks of other tribes. Behind
these are the Ahelmil, Finnaithae, Fervir and Gauthigoth,
a race of men bold and quick to fight. Then come the
Mixi, Evagre, and Otingis. All these live like wild ani-
mals in rocks hewn out like castles. And there are be- 2^
yond these the Ostrogoths, Raumarici, Aeragnaricii, and
the most gentle Finns, milder than all the inhabitants of
Scandza. Like them are the Vinovilith also. The Suetidi
are of this stock and excell the rest in stature. However,

the Dani, who trace their origin to the same stock, drove
from their homes the Heruli, who lay claim to preemi-
nence among all the nations of Scandza for their tallness
