I am afraid there is a glaringly big mistake in this presentation (also repeated in the Byzantine video lecture). The Magyars and Attila the Hun are not by any stretch of the imagination related, as peoples or nations or timeline in anyway at all. Attila the Hun lived 406 to 453 AD though he traveled and conquered the carpathian Basin, this was long before the Magyars ever came here These people were known as the Huns and not Magyars. On the other hand the Magyars existed independently between the Volga and the Ural mountains between the 8th and 5th century BC only Joining forces with related tribes as a political confederation in around 830 AD and capturing and settling in the Carpathian Basin. Please amend when you have a chance - these videos lectures are otherwise very well put together. Thankyou

Adding to what another user wrote below by pointing out that the Scandinavians didn't start their raids until the END of the 8th century (they didn't hit Lindisfarne until 793) and they didn't settle Iceland, Greenland, or Vinland until closer to the turn of the millennium. The time period should be referred to as The Great Migration not the "Dark Ages" which is what self-righteous bigots during the Enlightenment termed it. (EDIT: We're completely ignoring Sutton Hoo, then? Okay.)

Thanks

I always try to express my thanks to people who try to spread knowledge as widely as they can with free content but I'm afraid that I found myself so amazed by the many errors and so much misleading information within the first seven minutes of this video that I could not watch any more. I don't know who these videos are setting out to educate but I hope that they do their own research beyond these lectures.
