Siege of Asemus
Hun–Eastern Roman conflict
The siege of Asemus was an unsuccessful attempt by the Huns of Attila to capture the fortified hill town of Asemus from the Eastern Roman Empire in 447. After the siege, the Asemuntians attacked the withdrawing Huns and even captured some Hunnic prisoners. This was one of the few Eastern Roman victories over the Huns in the 440s.
