[Moeller] I was sure you will ask about and because the
disscution about volcae is closed and over, I did not wanted
to reopen it at this time:-))
OK, you get it:The name is to find in book LIV : 34
Dio Cassius tells us about a leader of the Bessi who was
called Vologeses ( I typed wrong before, so not Vologenses but
Vologeses)
Of course this is long time before the slavs appeared at the
border of roman empire , but there are some indicies for me,
this is why I asked for it.
The greek word is,unfortunately, not in my book. YOu are right
in your assumption, I think that Vologeses=voloh:-)
