This chapter tackles the interaction of ethnic and Christian identities in Vandal Africa. Its premise is that the dominant paradigm of dual ethnic and Christian affiliations—rooted in Victor of Vita’s fundamental dichotomy between Vandal Arians and Roman Catholics—does justice neither to the variety and subtlety of contemporary perspectives nor to the insights of recent critical work on group identities in late antiquity. Each form of identity was, at most, intermittently important for the inhabitants of post-imperial Africa. Ethnic affiliation does not seem to have mattered all that much to the kings and clerics who sought to police their orthodox communities, whether Homoian or Nicene: if any group was singled out, it was the service aristocracy of the kingdom, whatever their ethnicity. Beyond Victor of Vita, when ethnic-group formation and ethnographic perspectives shaped contemporary ideas of Christian community, it was in surprisingly subtle, varied, and even sympathetic ways.
