Abstract

On the basis of available archaeological, historical, and linguistic evidence the article presents an overview of the beginnings of Inn valley (northern Tirol) population at the turn of antiquity and in the early phase of Middle Ages by German tribe of Bajuwaren. It further considers a reciprocal coexistence of these immigrants from beyond the Alps with local post-Roman groups of Breones. A peaceful coexistence, common religion (Catholicism) and external threat from Alamans, Longobards and Slavs led in a long run to the cultural and linguistic assimilation of Roman groups by Bajuwaren.
