  Note - the "Vandals" did not exist prior to about 350-400AD If this information is from a Swedish Heavy Metal Band then it may just be, well.....fictitious-please do not attach to any attested Goths. The operative phrase in Wikipedia is "legendary" as in no proof of his existence, fictitious...and where did Pakistan come from?
  
  Segundo o relato, teria liderado seu povo em três navios de Scandza (Escandinávia) para Gotiscandza (bacia do Vístula). Eles assentaram-se e então atacaram os rúgios, que viviam na costa, expulsando-os de seus domínios; depois, derrotariam seus novos vizinhos, os vândalos.[2] A arqueologia, no entanto, contradiz esse relato ao demonstrar que a transição da Cultura de Oksywie à de Vilemberga foi pacífica e sua cronologia coincide com o aparecimento de nova população de origem escandinava em áreas anteriormente inabitadas ("terras de ninguém") entre as zonas das culturas de Oksywie e de Przeworsk.

  Berig is a legendary king of the Goths appearing in the Getica by Jordanes. According to Jordanes, Berig led his people on three ships from Scandza (Scandinavia) to Gothiscandza (the Vistula Basin).[1] They settled and then attacked the Rugians who lived on the shore and drove them away from their homes, subsequently winning a battle against the Vandals.[2]
  
  Arne Søby, a Danish historian, has nonetheless proposed that Cassiodorus, who wrote the original text on which Jordanes's work is based, invented him, with inspiration from the name of Βέρικος (Berikos or Verica).[3] Some archaeological research indicates, however, that the transition of Oksywie culture into Wielbark culture was peaceful and its timing coincides with the appearance of new population of Scandinavian origins in previously uninhabited area ("no man's land") between the Oksywie and Przeworsk culture areas.[4]
  
  The 16th-century Swedish archbishop of Uppsala, Johannes Magnus in his history of the Swedes and Goths, was the first to publish a song known as the "Ballad of Eric," about an early Gothic king called Eric, who bears some similarities to Berig. It was once thought to contain authentic folk tradition about the king, but it is now regarded as inaccurate.[5][6] However, Magnus discusses king Berig separately as having united the Swedes and Goths some 400 years after Eric's death.
  
  In popular culture, Berig is referenced (as Berik) in the song Three Ships of Berik, Pts. 1 and 2 by Swedish symphonic metal band Therion.
