"Thrasamund (450–523), King of the Vandals and Alans (496–523), was the fourth king of the north African Kingdom of the Vandals. He reigned longer than any other Vandal king in Africa other than his grandfather Genseric.
Thrasamund was the third son born to Genseric´s fourth son, Gento, and became king in 496 after all of Genseric´s sons and his own brother, King Gunthamund, had died. Upon Gunthamund´s death, he was one of only two living grandsons of Genseric, and inherited the throne in accordance with a law enacted by his grandfather, which bestowed the kingship on the eldest male member of a deceased king´s family." - (en.wikipedia.org 18.10.2020)
