August 552 CE

Justinian dispatches a small force (two thousand men) under Liberius to Hispania, according to the historian Jordanes; the imperial troops makes landfall in June or July 552, probably at the mouth of the Guadalete or perhaps Málaga.

Liberius joins with Athanagild to defeat Agila as he marches south from Mérida towards Seville in August or September 552.
