<p> A German people, settled at the beginning of our era about the lower Elbe. [[In]] the 5th century we find them in Moravia, and a century later established, a powerful people, between the [[Adriatic]] and the Danube. They invaded [[Italy]] in 568, and in three years had mastered the North, but abandoning their [[Arian]] faith they gradually became Italianised, and after the overthrow of their dynasty by [[Charlemagne]] in 774 they became merged in the Italians. From the 13th century [[Italian]] merchants, known as Lombards, from Lucca, Florence, Venice, and Genoa, traded under much odium, largely in [[England]] as wool-dealers and bankers, whence the name [[Lombard]] Street. </p> | |||
