Type: Media

As of November 2026, Barbarian has been mentioned in one podcast episode on How Did This Get Made? (Sep 2025). Mentioned as a previous work by the director of Weapons.

A barbarian is, etymologically, a foreigner, specifically someone whose language and customs differed from those of the speaker. In ancient Greece, the term designated non-Greeks, while in the Roman world it referred more generally to peoples living outside the cultural and political sphere of the empire. In modern English, the word has developed a pejorative sense, commonly meaning a "rude, wild, uncivilized person".
