Bochas (Hun)

Bochas (died 537) was a Hun officer of the guard under Belisarius.

He was one of the bodyguards (or bucellarii) of Belisarius. He fought for Belisarius in the Gothic War in the 530s.

He once fought against twelve Goths. They encircled him and hit him with their lances but his armor withstood their blows. One of the Goths managed to hit him from behind, piercing him. This, however, was not a mortal blow.
