Amantini

Amantini (greco: Ἄμαντες) era il nome di una tribù illira^[1] della Pannonia^[2]. Resistettero duramente ai Romani, ma furono venduti come schiavi dopo la loro sconfitta^[3]. Gli Amantini erano parenti stretti dei Sirmioni^[4] ma la tribù era probabilmente già presente nelle aree meridionali, vista l'esistenza di una città di nome Amantia^[5]. Questo potrebbe rendere gli Amantini la tribù illira stanziata più a sud.
