Heiric and the Querolus are discussed here repository.royalholloway.ac.uk/items/2ad39e...

But maybe also worth consulting new 2023 edition of the Querolus by Brandenburg

We approve of this perspective! It's a great question.

(I am teasing a bit, but it's only preserved because a couple of Carolingian scribes thought it worth copying - one wonders what they made of it)

Thanks! There is a nice brief discussion in Kyle Harper, Slavery in the late Roman world, AD 275–435 (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2011), 249-52.

Plus see recent edition by Brandenburg (2023, in German) and O'Donell's unpublished University of London thesis/translation (online)
