The Battles of Viminacium were a series of three battles fought against the Avars by the Eastern Roman Empire. They were decisive Roman successes, which were followed by an invasion of Pannonia. In summer 599, the East Roman Emperor Maurice sent his generals Priscus and Comentiolus to the Danube front against the Avars. The generals joined their forces at Singidunum and advanced together down the river to Viminacium. The Avar khagan Bayan I meanwhile - learning that the Romans had determined to violate the peace - crossed the Danube at Viminacium and invaded Moesia Prima, while he entrusted a large force to four of his sons, who were directed to guard the river and prevent the Romans from crossing over to the left bank. In spite of the presence of the Avar army, however, the Byzantine army

| - As Batalhas de Viminácio foram uma série de três combates travados entre o Império Bizantino e os ávaros e que foram decisivas para o avanço bizantino na região, culminando na invasão da Panônia, o coração do Grão-Canato Ávaro. (pt)
- Οι μάχες του Βιμινάκιου ήταν μια σειρά από τρεις μάχες που έγιναν σε σύντομο χρονικό διάστημα μεταξύ των Αβάρων και Σλάβων συμμάχων τους και της Βυζαντινής Αυτοκρατορίας το 599. Οι Βυζαντινοί πέτυχαν μία καθοριστική νίκη όπου έπειτα τους επέτρεψε να εισβάλουν στην Παννονία, την καρδιά του Αβάρικου κρατιδίου. Το καλοκαίρι του 599 ο αυτοκράτορας Μαυρίκιος έστειλε τους στρατηγούς του Πρίσκο και σε εκστρατεία εναντίον των Αβάρων. Οι στρατηγοί ένωσαν τις δυνάμεις τους στην Σιγγιδών και προωθήθηκαν από κοινού κατά μήκος του Δούναβη στο Βιμινάκιον. (el)

- Las batallas de Viminacium fueron una serie de tres batallas libradas entre los ávaros y el imperio bizantino. Las batallas fueron una victoria bizantina clave que permitió la subsecuente invasión de Panonia. Prisco posteriormente persiguió al khagan huido e invadió las tierras ávaras en Panonia, donde ganó otra serie de batallas en las orillas del río Tisza y decidió la guerra en favor de los romanos. La campaña supuso el final, por un tiempo, de las incursiones eslavas y ávaras a través del Danubio. (es)
- Die Schlachten von Viminacium war eine Abfolge von drei Schlachten zwischen dem Oströmischen Reich und den Awaren. Die Oströmer konnten entscheidende Siege erringen, anschließend drangen sie bis nach Pannonien vor. Priskos verfolgte anschließend den fliehenden Khagan und marschierte in das awarische Kerngebiet in Pannonien ein, wo er weitere Schlachten an den Ufern des Flusses Theiß gewann, was den Krieg zu einem siegreichen Ende brachte und für eine längere Zeit die awarische und slawische Bedrohung an der Donau aufhob.
