Dagistheus (fl. 479) was an Ostrogothic chieftain. The name is Germanic. Theodoric the Great (r. 474–526) sent Dagistheus and Soas as hostages to Adamantius in Epirus in 479. He was presumably a leading Ostrogothic chieftain under Theodoric. The Roman baths in Constantinople were possibly named after him. He may have been an ancestor of the later Dagistheus.
Dagistheus (fl. 552) general of Emperor Justinian, released from Byzantine prison to command the Huns.
