Is this where the line broke and the Germanic barbarians poured into the Roman Empire?

One of the places they crossed into the Empire. The Visigoths moved through Lower Moesia and continued further South where they defeated the Eastern Roman Emperor at the battle of Adrianople in 378 AD. Other Barbarians, such as the Huns, Ostrogoths, and Vandals, entered the Empire further to the North.
