With regard to the apparent distinction drawn by the writer of the Widsi^ between the Geatas and the Gotan, the difficulty is, perhaps, not 80 great as it seems.

But the Gothic people living under the rule of Eormanric, or his successor, who had passed througn many vicissitudes since they left their ancient home, were likely enough to have altered to some extent the pronunciation of their name, so that it would sound * Gota,' not * Geata,' in the traveller's ear.
