Romans later took the word and in Latin it meant "the one who comes from outside of Roman Empire".
Basically, the term meant "foreigner". But, since these foreigners came from territories and tribes that were on a less cultural and civilizational level then Romans, this term soon denoted someone who is savage, uncivilized, brutal.
