# Augustine dies in 430 during the Vandal siege of Hippo, a displacement file he did not command

Date: 430

## The fact

On 28 August 430, as later lives date it, Augustine died while [Hippo](/people/augustine-of-hippo) was under Vandal siege. The instrument is that death-in-siege as the limit of an African bishopric. He did not invite Geiseric. Possidius' Life is the principal later carrier, not a 430 newspaper. Augustine of Hippo's documented role is: Possidius later tells the siege and the death. Geiseric's forces besieged. Augustine remained as bishop.

## Context

Geiseric commands the Vandals in the later file. Sharing the sack with unnamed townspeople is required. City of God had already thought 410; this is 430 on the African coast. The Champaigne canvas is centuries later. The setting of Augustine dies in 430 during the Vandal siege of Hippo, a displacement file he did not command is the public file around 0430-08-28. Shared offices, unnamed crews, printers, or later editors may appear without becoming this instrument. Driver [forced-displacement-scale](/drivers/forced-displacement-scale) is attached because the significance names a mechanism from this act, not because a standing list needed coverage.

If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.
