Ancient people
Not to be confused with Aedui.
The Aedi (Ancient Greek: Αἶδοι) were an ancient people living between the Haemus Mountains and the Danube river. They are known from only one passage from Pliny the Elder's Naturalis Historia , where he mentions them alongside the Clariae and Scaugdae as the neighbours of the Getae.[1]
According to the scholar Georgi Mihailov, the Aedi were a Getic tribe.[2]
