Felix Dahn (1834 – 1912) was a German law professor, author, poet, and historian. Dahn“s writings were influential in the conception of the European Migration Period in German historiography of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His multi-volume Prehistory of the Germanic and Roman Peoples, a chronology of the Migration Period that first appeared in print in 1883, was so definitive that abbreviated versions were reprinted until the late 1970s.
