Amali
The Amali – also called Amals, Amalings or Amalungs – were a leading dynasty of the Goths, a Germanic people who confronted the Roman Empire during the decline of the Western Roman Empire. They eventually became the royal house of the Ostrogoths and founded the Ostrogothic Kingdom of Italy. Origin The Amal clan was claimed to have descended from the divine. Jordanes writes: Now the first of these heroes, as they themselves relate in their legends, was Gapt, who begat Hulmul. And Hulmul begat Augis; and Augis begat him who was called Amal, from whom the name of the Amali comes. Athal begat Achiulf and Oduulf. Now Achiulf begat Ansila and Ediulf, Vultuulf and Ermanaric. This provides the following stemma for the earliest rulers of the Goths, before outlining in more detail the two divisions that arose from the son, Achiulf of Athal, the last in this early lineage : Gapt or Gaut is the Scandinavian god of war.

Amaury, Count Of Valenciennes
Amaury (Amulric) (died after 973), was a tenth century count with territory in Hainaut, possibly a Count of Valenciennes. He is known from very few records, and most that has been published about him is speculative. *One of the only records of this count states that he married an unnamed daughter of Isaac, Count of Cambrai, and that Fulbert, Bishop of Cambrai, dissolved the marriage on the grounds of consanguinity sometime between 953 and 956. *He also appeared in a record dated 973, concerning a grant in Hainaut. Vanderkindere guessed, based on the places named in the grant, that Amaury must be count of the Valenciennes area.MGH DD Otto 1, nr.426, 579; Vanderkindere, ''Formation territoriale'', Vol.2 71-72; Nonn, ''Pagus und Comitatus'', 131; Verdonk, ''Alzey-Zutphen.
