Been waiting for this for so long. Love from Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

By far the most accurate and reliable video about the Huns! Thank you !

I absolutely love your channel. Please keep doing more and more turkic, mongolic movies please. You're exactly who I've been searching for!!!!!!!!!

One interesting data about the "barbaric" Attila: In 476 the Roman empire was ended, when the last emperor, Augustus Romulus was dethroned by Odoaker, and Odoaker became the king of Italy. And who were they? Augustus Romulus was the son of the first secretary of Attila (Orestes). And Odoaker was a son of the commander of Attila's bodyguard (Edeko). So how "barbarian" Attila could be, if his first secretary's son became later the last Roman emperor, and his bodyguard's commander's son became later the first Italian king?

Thank you for the video. You have amazingly accurately reproduced the appearance of the Huns. I am simply amazed at how accurately artificial intelligence reproduced the images of the Huns (Xiongnu). This is simply excellent. I just began to believe even more that our Chuvash ancestors were Xiongnu. I have photographs of my relatives and they are 100 percent similar to your photographs of the Huns. It is something. I'm just touched. It was as if I saw my distant relatives. The Chuvash are descendants of the Xiongnu. That's for sure. Both in language and now in appearance... I'm sure. It was they who invisibly drew your portraits of the Huns. We Chuvash even have a clan called Mushchak (Attila’s father), I found out last week. Your hand and thoughts are invisibly led in the right direction by our great ancestors - the Xiongnu. In Chuvash, man is translated as Shun. Tavtapushch sir (in Chuvash this means thank you) We have an ancient saying that if the Chuvash disappear, the world will disappear. The Huns, represented by the Chuvash, have not left the world stage of history. They, as before, will still say their word for the glory of humanity.... Tour Shchirlakh!!!

According the Hungarian chronicles, Attila and his troops stayed on the battle field and buried the dead enemy, and burned their own dead soldiers. After this they stopped in Rome. Pope Leo came to the gates of Rome. A short time later Attila and his troop left. So the so called barbarian didn't burn Rome like the Germans and others did before and after.

This is by far the best and most informative documentary about this topic I have seen. Delicious style and magnifitient illustrations. Gettin better and better. Enjoyed alot. Please more.🐎🐎🐎

Khan's Den it's another level, awesome! It's clear if we look Turkic countries general history only their founders gain their top. Land area, army, supplies extra. Like Atilla the hun, The Temur, mamluk sultans acros afro-asia except ottomans

Absolutely excellent doco! Really fascinating & educational. Great work, team. Thank you so much for sharing. ⚔🙏

It was an informative and wonderful explanation of Huns history. and their's relationships to Turkik tribe's..Huns influences in India, Persians, east and west Rome empires....thank you for sharing

My name is Atila and i feel so grateful my parents named me after him

The reason that the Türks and other Turkic nomads were formidable warriors was that they were horse-archers. A horse-archer specifically denotes a mounted warrior armed with a bow who can shoot from horseback while riding. The Turkic nomadic warriors as well as the Mongols used the composite bow, which was made of horn, wood, and sinew. The composite bow was more accurate and had a better range and rate of fire than muskets and early firearms. The tactical principles of the Turkic horse-archers were based on the combination of fire power and mobility. yhe nomadic horse-archers shot in volleys, weakening the enemy before they charged. Ideally, they practiced "fire power in movement" like modern armies.Other things being equal, the horse-archers were often almost unbeatable on the open battlefields. Against them, sedentary soldiers were often helpless until the development of efficient battlefield handguns, including the repeating firearms (the firearms that could be fired repeatedly before being manually reloaded) in the seventeenth century.

THE SON OF ATTILA Following the assassination of Attila , the great Hun warrior , the German tribes rose up in rebellion . Many bloody battles ensued , as Teutons battled Huns . In the Carpathian Mountains , the outnum bered Huns were forced to seek reinforcements . Alone , with only a small group of warriors , Csaba , the youngest son of Attila and leader of the Székely tribe , left the scene . He took a group of his greatest warriors and body guards , and fought his way out of the enemy encirclement . He then rode east to raise another army and return to their settled homeland . He made good on his promise , more than once . As time passed , legends grew up around the returning chief and his Hun warriors . Today , over campfires , as the legends are recounted , children look up to the starry milky way and see its river of stars , the Hadak útja ( Warriors Avenue ) , and know that Attila and their ancient ancestors will return with their mighty armies of courageous warriors from the stars , to protect their homeland , and the Carpathians , the heart of the empire of the Huns .

One of the best I've seen. Congratulations

I most enjoy the research and references used in this fantastic work. Great scholarship

Very nice documentary! In Hungary there are also some archaeological remains of the Huns such as gilded bows and Hunnic cauldrons. The name of the town of Buda comes from Attila's brother according to medieval chroniclers and a nice epic story rivalising with King Arthur's. Actually this is one of the many speculations of medieval historians recreating their past from placenames, because the name Buda comes from "oven" in Slavic and that is the meaning of the name used in medieval German also for Buda: "Ofen" (much like "oven" in English), the town being mostly inhabited by Germans in the Middle Ages, and probably founded on Slavic grounds like many other places in Hungary (example: Visegrad, meaning High Castle in Slavic). There was a strong medieval tradition of connecting the Magyars to the Huns, mainly by monks writing in their monasteries and making simplified etymological guesses as they were accustomed to in those times, guided by Isidore of Seville's Etymologicae. In the same sense, medieval French said they descended from Troy, because of prince Paris... But beyond the medieval storytellers about the Huns and Attila, we did actually have many relations with Turkish tribes and have a lot of Turcick loanwords in the Hungarian language (but also many Iranian ones and even more Slavic and German). The relation between the eastern Ural where magyars come from and the Altai is a very old one as they were directly connected by the Irtysh and the Ob rivers and these relations can alreaady be demonstrated in the Bronze Age, so there are also genetic links between Magyars and Turks going back to Prehistory and also from historical times as many Turcick tribes were actually integrated into the Hungarian kingdom, not the least the Petchenegs and the Koumans (Kipchaks).

It's evident that Hunnic was an Oghur Turkic language related to Bulgar hence the concept of "Hunno-Bulgar", the Chuvash language remains the only surviving member of this archaic branch

🐺🇲🇳🇰🇿🇺🇿🇦🇿🇹🇷🇰🇬🇭🇺🇹🇲🐺 Hunnic empire Attila is my ancestor

This can be surmised by analysing the names of Hunnic princes and tribes. The names of the following Hunnic princes are clearly Oghuric Turkic in origin: Mundzuk (Attila’s father, from Turkic Muncˇuq = pearl/jewel; for an in-depth discussion of the Hunnic origin of this name in particular see Schramm (1969), 139-40), Oktar/Uptar (Attila’s uncle, Öktär = brave/powerful), Oebarsius (another of Attila’s paternal uncles, Aïbârs = leopard of the moon), Karaton (Hunnic supreme king before Ruga, Qarâton = black-cloak), Basik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, early fifth century, Bârsig˘ = governor), Kursik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, from either Kürsig˘ , meaning brave or noble, or Quršiq meaning beltbearer). For these etymologies see Bona (1991), 33. Three of Attila’s known sons 40 have probable Turkic names: Ellac, Dengizich, Hernak, and Attila’s princi­ pal wife, the mother of the ‘crown prince’ Ellac, has the Turkic name Here­ kan, as does another notable wife named Eskam. See Maenchen-Helfen (1973), 392-415. See also Bona (1991), 33-5, and Pritsak (1956), 414. Most known Hunnic tribal names are also Turkic, Maenchen-Helfen (1973), 427-41, e.g. Ultincur, Akatir etc. The cur suffix in many of these names is a well-known Turkic title and as Beckwith (1987), 209, points out the To-lu or Tardus tribes (Hunnic in origin) of the Western Turkish On Oq were each headed by a Cur (noble). Zieme (2006), 115, speculates that the title cur belongs to a pre-Turkic Tocharian stratum of the Turkic language, which, if true, again highlights the essential heterogeneity of Central Asian peoples and even languages. See also Aalto (1971), 35. In addition to this primary language (Oghuric Turkic), Priscus informs us that Latin and Gothic were also understood by the Hunnic elite. See Priscus, fr. 13.3, Blockley (1983), 289. Mclaughlin, Professors Hyun & Lieu, Rome and China: Points of Contact (Routledge, 2021)

While its true that there was some controversy about the origin of the Huns, the consensus after recent decades is that they were Turks of Oghuric affiliation, mostly based on credible studies confirming that the vast majority of attested Hunnic names, as well as all Hunnic successor clans are of evident Oghur Turkic origin. All Hunnic tribes (entirely Oghur Turkic) : Akatziri, Onogurs, Utigurs, Sabirs, Bulgars, Saragurs, Kutrigurs, Barsils, Balanjars Recorded Hunnic names of Turkic origin : Aigan = moon prince; from Turkic aï & can Alp Ilutuer / Ilteber = heroic chieftain; from Turkic alp & iltäbär Althias = six; from Turkic Alti Akkagas = white rock; from Turkic ak & kayač Atakam = elder shaman; from Turkic ata & kam Balach = calf; from Turkic Malaq Berik = strong; from Turkic Berık Basik = governor; from Turkic Bârsiğ Bleda = wise; from Turkic Bildä Bochas = either gullet; from Turkic Boğuz; or bull, from Buqa Dengizich = ocean-like, heavenly; from Turkic teɲez & dêɲri; or, more simply, great lake Donat / Donatu = horse; from Turkic Yonat Edeco = good; from Turkic Ädgü Ellac = to rule; from Turkic el & lä Emmedzur = horse lord; from Turkic Ämäcur Eskam / Esqam = companion of the shaman; from Turkic Eŝkam Hereka / Kreka = pure princess; from Turkic Arïqan Ernakh / Hernac = small man, heroic man; from Turkic Ernäk Iliger = prince man; from Turkic ilig & är Karadach = black mountain; from Turkic Qaradağ Karaton = black cloak; from Turkic Qarâton Kursik = either noble; from Turkic Kürsiğ; or belt-bearer, from Qurŝiq Kutilzis = blessed herald; from Turkic kut & elči Mundzuk = bead; from Turkic Munčuq Oebarsius / Aybars = moon leopard, from Turkic Aïbârs; or dun leopard, from oy & bars Oldogan / Odolgan = either red falcon; from Turkic al & dogan; or chubby, from Tolgun Oktar / Uptar = brave; from Turkic Öctär Ruga / Rua = wise man; from Turkic Ögä Turgun = still/calm; from Turkic Turkun Uldin = six; from Turkic Alti Zolban = shepherd star; from Turkic Čolpan.

Really engaging. Thanks for your wonderful efforts

Top notch. Thanks for creating and sharing with the world.

Really loved your video. You research is impeccable, storytelling is great and illustrations as superb

In a manuscript of Otto of Freising's History of Two Cities an editor, seemingly from the thirteenth century, added a marginal note to a passage describing the conversion of a king of the Huns at the time of the Emperor Justinian. This note commented that the Turks' were formerly known as 'Huns' and that Western Huns are now called Hungarians and Avars. This comment, whilst obscure and late, demonstrates that this author at least understood that a link existed between the Turks and Hungarians. There is an earlier source that makes a similar point. This is the Chronicle of Montecassino, which in an account of the First Crusade's crossing of Asia Minor, refers to the Seljuk Turkish ruler, Qilij Arslan of Nicaea, as the 'king of Huns, who now we call Turks

Wonderful documentary, great job! You have a shining talent about history telling. Wonderful explanations about hunnic subempires like blue, red, white, golden huns. Blue huns were Gokturks in east, white and red huns were Hephtalites, Alchons in south, golden huns were Atilla's huns in northwest related to turkic region. Even today we can see turkic language region in language maps as reference. I think Xiongnu was an eastern hun + mongol tribes union in east. On the west, there was a western hun (saka, sumer) + iranic union named Saka/Scythian. Their ancestors were turkic, ugric, sumerian people who have mixed with persian and arian people of mesopotamia and caucasia. Saka people are called in I. Darius' writing as foreign, central asian people. They were elder allies, later enemies for persians. Sumerians have migrated to balkans, central europe partly mixing with grecoromans in anatolia and italian peninsula. They named themselves as Rasenna (Etruscans). They had a turkic-like culture and agglutinative language. Also, they spread to west as vasconic (basq, aquitan as also mentioned in this video) and to north as saxonian. Vasconic people also have spoken agglutinative in west, but saxonians have converted to germanic languages by gothic, nordic tribes. If we inspect linguistically, in recent linguistic theories sumerian, vasconic, tyrrhenian, north caucasian (including avar andic), nadene/atabasq, yeniseian languages are classified in a new language family named dene-caucasian language family which is mostly agglutinative and relative to uralic-altaic languages. They all have originated from southeast asian agglutinative languages. If we inspect genetically, southeast asians had C1b, D, K2b ydna genetics and spread to australia, polynesia, west and east austronesia, southern east asia, northern east asia, north euroasia, siberia, americas, central asia, east euroasia, west euroasia, india and west europe. They have spoken agglutinative languages mostly and had genetically mutated descendant haplogroups of C1b, D, K2b ydna. I can summarize them as general: C1b, C2 - east austronesian, polynesian, C3 - mongolic, tungusic, C4 - aboriginal australian, D, D1, D2 - tibetan, burman, andamanese, D3 - ainu, jomon japanese, K2b, P - aeta, negrito, philippinese, malaisian, M, S - papuan, new guinean, N, N1 - proto-uralic, N2, N3 - uralic, finnic, samoyedic, O - thai-kadai, O1, O2 - west austronesian, sinitic, O3 - koreanic, japonic, P1 - altaic, altaian, tuvan, soyot turkic, Q, Q1a - ket, yeniseian, Q1b - nadene/atabasq, native american, R, R1 - mal'ta buret culture, uyghur turkic, R1a - hunnic, turkic, ugric, european hunnic (khazar, tatar, avar, magyar, balkar, old bolgar, oghur), indian hunnic (chionit, kidarit, hephtalit, alchon, gaznevit, timurit, baburit), R1b - sumer, saka, scythian, turkmen, turk, azeri/khazar, oghuz, gagauz, bashkir, basq, aquitan, vasconic, tyrrhenian, raetic, etruscan, old saxonian, old gaulic, old scottish etc), R2 - dravidian, srilankan... Also, maternally southeast asian mtdna haplogroups are distinct from european R mtdna major group (H, V, J, T, U, K mtdna). Just B, F, P mtdna haplogroups migrated together with southeast asian mtdna people like M mtdna major group (E, Q, O, C, D, G, Z mtdna) and N mtdna major group (A, X, S, I, W, Y mtdna). E, O, P, Q, S mtdna and partly other B, M, N mtdna have remained in west, east austronesia, australia, polynesia. Other group have migrated to northern east asia and north euroasia together with ydna haplogroups. Some part of A, B, C, D, X mtdna have migrated to americas together with C3, R, Q1b ydna. Some part of A, B, C, D, E, F, G, I, W, X, Y, Z mtdna have remained in north asia, northeast asia, siberia or migrated to west into east euroasia and central asia together with C3, N2, N3, Q1a, R, R1, R1a, R1b, R2 ydna. They have constructed those hunnic empires, sumerian, scythian civilisations etc. in history. Those were altai region originated asiatic people. After they come across with the fusional language speaking (indoeuropean, afroasiatic) people, they have mixed eachother resulting to different nations including both uralic-altaic, dene-yeniseian and indoeuropean, afroasiatic people in different regions. Roman vs Hunnic war was including these different but mixed eastern and western tribes in both side.

We are all ATTİLA, we are all TÜRKS 🤘💯🤘

29:39 Also haben sich die Hunnen-Germanen-Römer mit Römer-Germanen-Hunnen gefetzt wie wahre Cousins HAHAHAHHA aber realtalk spannende sicht du hast mehr abos verdient

Attila defeated both Eastern and Western Roman empire. In 452 , the Western Roman empire became a vassal state, which supported by Priscus and Prosper of Aquitane ,who were both contemporaries.

I hope those nomadic rulers would get the appreciation they deserve! :)

Thanks for an objective documentary well done will review remainder of playlists

Great video again my friend thank you for telling the story of our ancestors in a non-demonizing way, growing up in the west the Huns are the bad guys but truly they were the tools of God

Awesome channel, new sub! I have one of those last names that's hard to say and somewhat ornate in origin. I usually encourage them to try to pronounce it and guess where it's from as roll call at school and in sports was always akward growing up. My great grandfather escaped Hungary at the start of WW1 and ended up in Trenton NJ. I love all of this stuff!

Thank you so awesome

22:06 Bleda’s name inspired Buda to be the name of the western part of the capital city called Budapest (Hungária)

Being Hungarian is a proud beauty.. Nowadays, people believe again in fate, in God... More and more people are saying the idea that: There are no coincidences! If this is true, everything that happens in our world has a reason, then can we ignore the fact that we were born Hungarian? Or, there are no coincidences, but that doesn't matter? Of course! If you were born here, you have a duty! Completing the task begins with the fact that we do not gloss over our Hungarianness, but find out what it means to be Hungarian. What kind of task has God (fate, universe...) assigned us as Hungarians. Árpád's Hungarians come to the inheritance of Atilla the Hun, as descendants to the Carpathians, Hunnia, Hungary. They take possession of the rightful inheritance, without a fight, because it turns out that the people who live here speak our language, our relatives. The Turul dynasty, of which Atilla is a member, was called the Árpád house in the Middle Ages, and can present one of the oldest family trees in the world, as Atilla descends from Nimród. According to our able chronicle, our first king was Atilla and our first king István. It's not a mistake, that's what the chronicle says about both of them. So we have a ruling family with the oldest ancestry in Europe and a rightful heritage, the Carpathians, the Carpathian Basin. There are many things that connect us with certain peoples connected here, of whom we can also say - and I say - our relatives. The Greeks describe the Scythians as saying that their soldiers retreat in battle, then unexpectedly attack back and destroy the ranks of the enemy, who were already confused in the pursuit, with a counterattack. This is what the Romans wrote about the Parthians, from whom they suffered a crushing defeat twice. This is the news about the Huns, the Avars, and about us Hungarians as well. In fact, our national symbol, the falcon that forms the basis of TURUL, also fights in the air in this way. We know from our legislation that at first it consists of only 5 points (the blood contract), then it expands, again and again by recording freedoms when they seem to be forgotten. According to the Greeks, the Scythians carry the truth not in the law book, but in their hearts. Atilla, God's Whip, is stern but fair. It is based on his judgment that he destroys entire cities, at other times he leaves a monastery or a church if he finds righteous people, and sometimes he pardons the entire city, see the case of Rome. We do not sign a contract in front of a notary, but in an authentic place (presbytery, canonry), in front of God. In case of breach of contract, God's Judgment is common. The most common is the ordeal by fire, which in the 1300s ended with more than 50% healing. Our relationship with God, loyalty to the truth plays a prominent role in our lives. (Dr. Tibor Varga) According to the Holy Crown Doctrine, which is the written reality of a customary law, everyone deserves a life worthy of a human being. The goods required for this cannot be alienated, and cannot be transferred to private hands. Today, this would be the agricultural land, road network, drinking water supply, telephone, post office, railway... These are the properties of the Holy Crown, which cannot be alienated by either the king or the parliament. Although this system does not serve profit maximization, it gives an opportunity for a life worthy of a human being. (Dr. Tibor Varga)

Many thanks for posting this Documentery!! Respect!

Great video and study.Atilla 2 nd wife princes of Roma,Honoria give a birth to Atila son called CHABA.-CSABA today.and a Székely people in Transilvánia are a desendance of king Csaba.Kigg Csaba spend 19 years in Byzantine beside of his grandfather Honorius who was a emperor of Byzantine.After when his grandfather Honorius died, he and his Hun-magyar-avar.székely people went to king Atila father Murduk-Mundzuk.who was still in life around north part of Black sea..

This was an excellent "lecture".

In the case of Early Pre-Proto-Mongolic, certain loanwords in the Mongolic languages point to early contact with Oghur (Pre-Proto-Bulgaric) Turkic, also known as r-Turkic. These loanwords precede Common Turkic (z-Turkic) loanwords and include: • Mongolic ikere (twins) from Pre-Proto-Bulgaric ikir (versus Common Turkic ekiz) • Mongolic hüker (ox) from Pre-Proto-Bulgaric hekür (Common Turkic öküz) • Mongolic jer (weapon) from Pre-Proto-Bulgaric jer (Common Turkic yäz) • Mongolic biragu (calf) versus Common Turkic buzagu • Mongolic siri- (to smelt ore) versus Common Turkic siz- (to melt) The above words are thought to have been borrowed from Oghur Turkic during the time of the Xiongnu. Later Turkic peoples in Mongolia all spoke forms of Common Turkic (z-Turkic) as opposed to Oghur (Bulgharic) Turkic, which withdrew to the west in the 4th century. The Chuvash language, spoken by 1 million people in European Russia, is the only living representative of Oghur Turkic which split from Proto Turkic around the 1st century AD. Words in Mongolic like dayir (brown, Common Turkic yagiz) and nidurga (fist, Common Turkic yudruk) with initial *d and *n versus Common Turkic *y are sufficiently archaic to indicate loans from an earlier stage of Oghur (Pre-Proto-Bulgaric). This is because Chuvash and Common Turkic do not differ in these features despite differing fundamentally in rhotacism-lambdacism (Janhunen 2006). Oghur tribes lived in the Mongolian borderlands before the 5th century, and provided Oghur loanwords to Early Pre-Proto-Mongolic before Common Turkic loanwords. Golden 2011, p. 31.

In ancient and medieval history sources, travelers and historians defined the Turkish peoples as Kipchaks, Cumans, Alans, Khazars, Hun - Bulgarians, Oghuz Turks, Yenisei Kyrgyz and White Huns as "Caucasoid" rather than Asian in phenotype Sources: Ammianus Marcelinus, Mattia De Edesse, Abul Feda Yosef, Biruni, Ibn Khaldun, Ibni Rabbihi, Istakhri, Said El Maghribi, Gerdizi, El Mesudi, El Omari, Nizami,, Chronicles of China Tang. Igor Epic.. Additionally, Proto Turks were never genetically mongoloid. Unlike Mongoloid DNA (c-o), They are belong to Caucausoid (r1,j2,g2,q) Haplogroups Characterictic Haplogroups in Proto-Turkic Groups Scythians- r1a-z93+q1a Huns- r1a-z93+q1a+j2a Gokturks - r1a-z93+j2a+q1a Uyghurs - r1a-z93+j2a Kipchaks- r1a-z93+r1b Cumans- r1a-z93+g2a Bulgarians- r1a-z93+q1a Alans- r1a-z93+g2a-p+j2a Khazars- r1a-z93+j2a+g2a Avars- r1a-z93+g2a+j2a Burcans- r1a-z93-g2a Proto-Kyrgyz- r1a-z93+j2 Oghuzs- r1b+r1a-z93+j2a Magyars- r1a+r1b+g2a Pechenegs- r1a+r1b+g2a Tatars- r1b+r1a+Q The Etruscan dynasty also belongs to the nomadic haplogroups r1b and r1a with the highest frequency. That's why Honorary Italian History Professor Mario Alinei described the Roman Etruscan dynasty as having Turkish origin. You can browse.

You said Pashtoon in Afghanistan but it is originally Hazaras. Hazaras are the Turkes whom still has 60 to 90 percent central Asian gens according to genetic tests. Hazaras ancestors was created Koshanian Empire.

Exceptional material and excellent presentation!👍👏

Many historians in the world, such as Mary Beard and Ian Hughes, believe that Flavius Aetius won the battle on the “Catalan Fields”, and his victory is indicated by such facts as: 1) The failed siege of the city of Orleans by the Huns. 2) Attila’s losses in the battle were greater, which is why he and the remnants of his army retreated from Gaul, thanks to which the spoils from the battlefield went to Aetius. Which became a symbol of his victory over Attila. Prosper, Jordanes and Gregory of Tours wrote about this. 3) The Roman vassal Merovey became the king of the Franks. And not his older brother, who was a vassal of the Huns!

The history of the Gaoju is given in the respective entry in WS 103 + (pp. 2505-2508); until the beginning of Text 1.056/B it is extracted as follows. 高車,蓋古赤狄之餘種也初號為狄歷,北方以為敕勒,諸夏以為高車、丁零。 其語略與匈奴同而時有小異,或云其先匈奴之也。 The Gaoju are probably the remaining tribes of the ancient Chidi [lit. 'the red Di']. Initially they were called Dili. People in the north called them Chile, whereas people in China proper called them Gaoju or Dingling. Their language is roughly the same as that of the Xiongnu but at times has minor differences from that. Some say that their ancestors were the nephew of [i.e. indirectly related to] the Xiongnu.

The oldest runes are from Norway, and are approximately 1800-2000 years old. They seem to be influenced by Latin and Etruscan. However, Runes were used by all Germanic tribes, even in present day Hungary.

Thank you very much for the video from Hungary!

So many good content. I AM hoping for flash point history and now for you

Those of you who are interested in the relationship of the Huns and the Hungarians, refer to recent DNA findings by Hungarian Scientist, who conducted extensive DNA studies of Hun skeletons in Hunnic cemeteries in Mongolia. The DNA findings directly identify the Huns and the Hungarians being of the same race.

This can be surmised by analysing the names of Hunnic princes and tribes. The names of the following Hunnic princes are clearly Oghuric Turkic in origin: Mundzuk (Attila's father, from Turkic Munc uq = pearl/jewel: for an in-depth discussion of the Hunnic origin of this name in particular see Schramm (1969), 139-40), Oktar/Uptar (Attila's uncle, Öktär brave/powerful), Oebarsius (another of Attila's paternal uncles, Arbårs leopard of the moon), Karaton (Hunnic supreme king before Ruga, Qarâton = black-cloak), Basik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, early fifth century, Bársig = governor), Kursik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, from either Kürsig, meaning brave or noble, or Quršiq meaning belt-bearer). For these etymologies see Bona (1991), 33. Three of Attila's known sons. have probable Turkic names: Ellac, Dengizich, Hernak, and Attila's principal wife, the mother of the crown prince' Ellac, has the Turkic name Herekan, as does another notable wife named Eskam. See Maenchen-Helfen (1973), 392-415. See also Bona (1991), 33-5, and Pritsak (1956), 414. Most known Hunnic tribal names are also Turkic, Maenchen-Helfen (1973), 427-41, e.g. Ultincur, Akatir etc. The cur suffix in many of these names is a well-known Turkic title and as Beckwith (1987), 209, points out the To-lu or Tardus tribes (Hunnic in origin) of the Western Turkish On Oq were each headed by a Cur (noble). Zieme (2006), 115, speculates that the title cur belongs to a pre-Turkic Tocharian stratum of the Turkic language, which, if true, again highlights the essential heterogeneity of Central Asian peoples and even languages. See also Aalto (1971), 35. In addition to this primary language (Oghuric Turkic), Priscus informs us that Latin and Gothic were also understood by the Hunnic elite. See Priscus, fr. 13.3, Blockley (1983), 289. The name of Ellac, Attila’s eldest son, is a corruption of the Turkic älik ( ilik ) meaning ‘ruler, king’. 21 Ernak/Irnik the youngest son also has the variation of the same suffix in his name. His name is probably Turkic är-näk , meaning ‘great hero’, with the suffix here functioning as an augmentation of the Turkic är-än (hero). 22 Thus the suffix -ik/ich was used in Hunnic to imply greatness (i.e. ruler or kingship). These names were, it seems, formal court titles rather than personal names. Kim, H. (2013). The end of the Hunnic Empire in the west. In The Huns, Rome and the Birth of Europe (pp. 89-136). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. Naturally we also have more probable Turkic etymologies for these names, especially for those of Attila and Bleda. However, even if they were Germanic or Germanicized Turkic names," ,99 this does not allow us to make any hasty assumptions about the official language of the empire, if it ever existed. What Heather ignores is the fact that we have convincing or highly probable Turkic etymologies for the names of many of the other Hunnic kings and nobles before and after Attila, e.g. Mundzuk (Attila's father, from Turkic Muncuq = 'pearl/jewel'), Oktar/Uptar (Attila's uncle, Öktär = "brave/power ful'), Oebarsius (another of Attila's paternal uncles, Aïbârs = 'leopard of the moon'), Karaton (Hunnic supreme king before Ruga, Qaraton = 'black cloak'), Basik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, early fifth century, Bårsig= 'governor'), Kursik (Hunnic noble of royal blood, from either Kürsig, meaning 'brave or noble', or Qursiq meaning 'belt-bearer'). All three of Attila's known sons have probable Turkic names: Ellac, Dengizich, Hernak, and Attila's principal wife, the mother of the first son Ellac, has the Turkic name Herekan, as does another wife named Eskam (Ešqam = 'companion of the Shaman).102 It seems highly likely then from the names that we do know, most of which seem to be Turkic, that the Hunnic elite was predominantly Turkic speaking. However, in the western half of the empire, where most of their subjects spoke Germanic languages, the Huns may have used both Hunnic (Oghuric Turkic) and Gothic. Thus fief holders and royal family mem Ibers in the west who ruled Germanic tribes often bore Germanic or Germanicized titles (of great significance, as we will discover later on in the book), e.g. Laudaricus and Ardaric.105 Priscus, who is our only reliable source, being an actual eye-witness, tells us that at the Hunnic court Hunnic, Gothic and Latin were spoken, but with Hunnic always men tioned before Gothic. All three languages were apparently understood by the elite to some degree, so much so that Zercon the Moor could provoke laughter by jumbling all three together at a Hunnic banquet in the presence of Attila.107 There is, however, no indication anywhere that any of these three languages was the lingua franca. Kim, H. (2013). Notes. In The Huns, Rome and the Birth of Europe (pp. 30). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. Haussig (2000), 277, suggests that Oult or Oulti is a Greek rendering of the Oghuric Turkic word for the number six. What is interesting is the fact that in names such as Oultizouroi and Ultzincur above we have clearly two elements Oulti (six) + the Turkic title Cur (noble), meaning ‘the six lords’. Kim, H. (2013). Notes. In The Huns, Rome and the Birth of Europe (pp. 159-275). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. The core Turkic tribes of the Hunnic Empire from very early on all possessed different names: Akatziri , Alpidzuri, etc. in addition to their Hunnic identity. Kim, H. (2013). Introduction. In The Huns, Rome and the Birth of Europe (pp. 1-8). Cambridge: Cambridge University Press.

You're planning a video about the Magyar khanate, If no take the suggestion. I wan to know about the beginning and the role of the western realms in the consolidation of the Magyar realms in Hungarian lands.

Excellent video, thanks

Thanks Man. Would you prepare a video on Huns of India, does any ethnic community in India stand for heir to Hunnic People?

Fun fact: if Atila the Hun and the Huns never slaughtered the Eastern Slavs, they would have never ran away from home and moved into the balkans and become now the southern Slavs (Serbs, Croats, Bosnaks and Montenegrins)

Any videos on the Bulgars soon? Probably one of the most interesting but least discussed Turkic peoples.

Отличная аналитика, исторический взгляд на роль гуннов в падении Римской империи. Фигура Атиллы навечно вписана в мировую историю

3:46: damn, I love AI created images and a good historical description😄

The painting shown in 19:48 is called ''Asparukh (such a Turkic name, isn't it?) at the Battle of Ongal'' by Vasil Goranov, and the sword on the book's cover in 26:20 is the sword of Kubrat, the founder of Bulgaria. Also, Modern genetic studies of bone material from Bulgarian burials from the period of the early Middle Ages clearly shows that the ethnic appearance of the discovered bodies belongs to the Indo-European group. Archaeologically, the Proto-Bulgarians belong to the Sarmato-Alan cultures. The Proto-Bulgarians as inhabitants of the lands north of the Caucasus in the 2nd century are mentioned by the Armenian historian Movses Khorenatsi. In his History of Armenia, written in the 80's of the 5th century AD, he speaks about two migrations of Proto-Bulgarians from Caucasus to Armenia. Proto-Bulgarians lived amongst Sarmato-Alan and Slavic tribes for centuries before migrating to the Balkans. However, Turkic elements could also be found due to the influence of the Avars (mostly) and the Göktürks. Most of the names of the rulers and aristocrats of the First Bulgarian Empire are of Iranian origin. Names such as Sinnion, Zabergan, Kubrat/Xovrat, Bezmer/Bozmihr, Asparukh, Tervel, Kormes, Sevar, Kardam, Krum, Omurtag/Murtag, Negavon, Okorsis/Korsis, Malamir, Boris, Rasate, etc., are proven to be (Indo)Iranian and generally Indo-European in origin (and etymology) and does not have Turkic analogues. The last pagan ruler of Bulgaria was literally called Persian/Presian. There is NO historical source or evidence of Tengrism in Bulgaria. The only "evidence" that suggests the alleged presence of ''Tangra/Tengri'' in the Bulgarian lands is a damaged fragmentary inscription found near Madara. The argument that the name "Tangra" was written on it has been refuted many times over the years.

I'd say that the actual legacy of the White Huns are the Hazara and not at all the Pashtun. They do carry (among other East Asian genetics) the so-called "Genghis Khan lineage", however I'm persuaded that's not a Mongolian heritage but a much older one ("molecular clock" is rubbish, at least the way shcolastic orthodoxy uses it), one that almost certainly pertains to the Turkic/Hunnic expansion. Also notice the similitude Hazara = Khazars.

Fabulous. Most intetesting.

Page 441 To judge by the tribal names, a great part of the Huns must have spoken a Turkish language. Ultincur and Alpilcur are as Turkish as Bug-cor, the Pecheneg tribal names ending in t£ovq, and the Kirghiz tribal and clan names ending in coro. Another common ending in Turkish tribal names, -gur, occurs in Kutrigur, Utigur, Onogur, Bittugur, *Tongur, and *Ugur. On the analogy with Ultincur, Ultingir, ending in -gir like other definitely Turkish ethnic names, must likewise be Turkish. The same is true for Bardor = Var-dor and Ultindur. Page 72 The Hunnic noblemen, Attila's relatives and retainers, have either Turkish or Germanic names. There evidently were few, if any, Alans among the leading group. As no people ever emigrated to the last man, some Alans presumably stayed in Hungary after 406, but they played a minor role. Most of their tribal and clan leaders had left. Page 403 That the Huns included Turkish-speaking tribes can be regarded as established only if a number of personal and tribal names of the Huns are undoubtedly as Turkish as orfevre is French, goldsmith English, and Goldschmied German. One such name is *alp-il-cur.

با افتخار من تورکم تورکه ایرانی🤘🐺

The voice of this narrator is amazing. What is his name please? Great video thank you

All respect for the work! Good job! Really enjoyed the video❤. Tho.. in allmoast all documentarys about great kings and generals.. moast experts use the words "ilogical or improbabil or less likely or irational" but does anyone consider the ego( ego can be and for shure was the reason of many "ilogical actions") such a powerfull king into consideration? Sry for my english as is not my first language.

In short, it is hard to think of any other ethnolinguistic entity in history that conquered so vast a territory and founded so many empires and states, also contributing to world civilizations. The history of the Turkic peoples was an important factor in world history for more than a millennium until the emergence of Europe as the world's dominant power. What happened in the Turkic world often affected the history of China, Central Asia, the Middle East, South Asia, and Europe. One may also argue that world history began with the "Turko-Mongol" empire created by Chinggis Khan. In the contemporary world, Turkic-speaking nations form six states (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, and Turkey/Türkiye) and several "autonomous" units in Russia (the republics of Chuvash, Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Altai, Khakassia, Tuva, and Sakha) and China (the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region). Turkic peoples also reside as minority groups in several other countries, including Mongolia and Iran, among others. It would therefore be difficult to acquire a comprehensive understanding of world history as well as our present world without studying the history of the Turkic peoples.

Molto interessante! Grazie!

My Hungarian ex-girlfriend was One of the most perfect creatures that ever lived, emitting a glory that would blind any mortal man. I find no fault with the engineering judgement of the man she married after dropping me.

Turkes have a lot of tribes. Kazakhstan, Kergizistan , Azerbaijan, and Turkmenistan, even in Afghanistan. Hazaras are Turke originally. They created big empires and rolled over a lot of territories

I read elsewhere a comment that says xiongnu is pronouned as hiongnu in southern china as h becomes x in mandarin ( northern china).

Excellent work here Sir

How different were the Huns from the Mongols? Especially in terms of military technology. Did the Huns use stirrups? Also did the Mongols had better horses than the Huns because of 800+ years of selective breeding and improvement?

Great movie. Lot’s of info. Thanks.

Thanks you so much for this history lesson! Please mark Budapest correctly on map. The marking should be more to the west and upwards where the Danube turns south. Now the marking point is set by the Tisza river.

There is no direct relation between the Germanic runes and that Turkish ones. Runes are just the ancient form that letters had, preferring straight lines as you can see in Archaic Greek and Etruscan inscriptions, before classical letters came into being. It was much easier to carve straight lines into wood than curved ones and it still is. The Germanic runes are directly connected to the Greek and Roman letters, you can actually still read them by knowing the Latin alphabet, some Germanic language (such as English) and a little exercise. Turkish runes are a very distant relative, therefore they have not been deciphered till quite recently.

Thanks!

Great video guys. Production, informational content and the narration (both speed and voice pitch) were all top level. Thoroughly enjoyed, many thanks 🙏

38:36 That's to nicest statue I've ever seen in my life. Probably also one of the biggest. At first I thought that the horse was too small. Later I learned that back then they had small horses/ pony's. It's an old breed. Those big horses we are custom to in EU weren't there yet.

Top notch video~

Hard to believe the Huns were described as most unhuman or (subhuman), when India also existed.

As the climate return to the warmer period identical to medieval warming period between yr 900-1300, and as petroleum resources diminishes, will we see the nomadic empires or cross continents government rises again? 😮

Would be so much better than the loud, intrusive music and sound effects.

keep going we ar proud off u

Good editing and narration.

i once killed attila by chance early on in ''attila total war'' the huns collapsed quickly and it was the easiest playthrough i had. good times.

I am fascinated with the horse warrior tribes. This is our European roots.

Long story short, Han China defeated Xiongnu and split it into two, Sourthern Xiongnu surrendered and was assimilated into China. Northern Xiongnu migrated to the west and rampaged Europe.

What software do you use to make those map graphics?

I have heard and been told that there are some villages in Germany that bear a Hunnic appearance and other traits. The same also applies to a couple of villages in France. I have also read that Ottavakar(Odoacer) did not want to destroy the Roman Empire but to perpetuate it e.g.the Roman Church, the Holy Roman Empire and the modern day EU. During WW 2 the Germans were sometimes called The Huns.

God video ❤but little corekt .In Gots Hronik and Romans Spek older Skyts lather huns and today bulgarian people in 5centure 😉 Good Bulgarian history 👍

Thanks .

16:30 Hungary’s obvious connection to their ancestors, the Huns.

Is that...final fantasy 7 background music??

Its currently discussed if the Germanic people were actually Uralic speakers like the Finns before getting degraded into Indo-European level by the various influential aspects of southern Europe. The exceptional distinct nature of the Germanic languages nature among the IE languages has led the researchers into this conclusion.

In 451 there is not much left of the Roman Empire in Gaul. Aetius leads a coalition of Gallo-Roman troops, Salian Franks, Armorican, Visigoths, Alains, Burgundians etc... After the defeat of the huns, nothing remains of Rome in Gaul. The Visigoths and the Franks dominated portions of the territory and Rome was looted by the Vandals.

❤ amazing 🔆

White huns is just territorial designation for western huns, just like White Xiongnu in the north west, Blue xiongnu in the north east, black xiongnu in the south east etc.

keanu reaves look like his brother lol 🤣😂

❤ this content

7:25= Kucha = the place where was the first time domestise wolf & other wild dog types . They named the place for all humanity = Kutya , still call the dogs in hungarian ( magyar ) language . There is a other proof place , where the wild horses was first domesticated by our race , the place name is : ló ... in turania - altaj [ al táj of the montains ] home of our races during the iceage in europe , then moving back to central europe , where they was lived before iceage . Etc...
