  • Hunnic Warfare in the Fourth and Fifth Centuries C.E.: Archery and the Collapse of the Western Roman Empire
    HUNNIC WARFARE IN THE FOURTH AND FIFTH CENTURIES C.E.: ARCHERY AND THE COLLAPSE OF THE WESTERN ROMAN EMPIRE A Thesis Submitted to the Committee of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science. TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Laura E. Fyfe 2016 Anthropology M.A. Graduate Program January 2017 ABSTRACT Hunnic Warfare in the Fourth and Fifth Centuries C.E.: Archery and the Collapse of the Western Roman Empire Laura E. Fyfe The Huns are one of the most misunderstood and mythologized barbarian invaders encountered by the Roman Empire. They were described by their contemporaries as savage nomadic warriors with superior archery skills, and it is this image that has been written into the history of the fall of the Western Roman Empire and influenced studies of Late Antiquity through countless generations of scholarship. This study examines evidence of Hunnic archery, questions the acceptance and significance of the “Hunnic archer” image, and situates Hunnic archery within the context of the fall of the Western Roman Empire. To achieve a more accurate picture of the importance of archery in Hunnic warfare and society, this study undertakes a mortuary analysis of burial sites associated with the Huns in Europe, a tactical and logistical study of mounted archery and Late Roman and Hunnic military engagements, and an analysis of the primary and secondary literature. Keywords: Archer, Archery, Army, Arrow, Barbarian, Bow, Burial Assemblages, Byzantine, Collapse, Composite Bow, Frontier, Hun, Logistics, Migration Period, Roman, Roman Empire, Tactics, Weapons Graves ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would first like to thank my thesis advisor, Dr.

  • Genetic Analysis of Male Hungarian Conquerors: European and Asian Paternal Lineages of the Conquering Hungarian Tribes
    Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences (2020) 12: 31 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12520-019-00996-0 ORIGINAL PAPER Genetic analysis of male Hungarian Conquerors: European and Asian paternal lineages of the conquering Hungarian tribes Erzsébet Fóthi1 & Angéla Gonzalez2 & Tibor Fehér3 & Ariana Gugora4 & Ábel Fóthi5 & Orsolya Biró6 & Christine Keyser2,7 Received: 11 March 2019 /Accepted: 16 October 2019 /Published online: 14 January 2020 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract According to historical sources, ancient Hungarians were made up of seven allied tribes and the fragmented tribes that split off from the Khazars, and they arrived from the Eastern European steppes to conquer the Carpathian Basin at the end of the ninth century AD. Differentiating between the tribes is not possible based on archaeology or history, because the Hungarian Conqueror artifacts show uniformity in attire, weaponry, and warcraft. We used Y-STR and SNP analyses on male Hungarian Conqueror remains to determine the genetic source, composition of tribes, and kin of ancient Hungarians. The 19 male individuals paternally belong to 16 independent haplotypes and 7 haplogroups (C2, G2a, I2, J1, N3a, R1a, and R1b). The presence of the N3a haplogroup is interesting because it rarely appears among modern Hungarians (unlike in other Finno-Ugric-speaking peoples) but was found in 37.5% of the Hungarian Conquerors. This suggests that a part of the ancient Hungarians was of Ugric descent and that a significant portion spoke Hungarian. We compared our results with public databases and discovered that the Hungarian Conquerors originated from three distant territories of the Eurasian steppes, where different ethnicities joined them: Lake Baikal- Altai Mountains (Huns/Turkic peoples), Western Siberia-Southern Urals (Finno-Ugric peoples), and the Black Sea-Northern Caucasus (Caucasian and Eastern European peoples).

He was a Attila the Hun: A Barbarian King and the Fall of Rome warlord and an astute politician, keeping a diverse confederation of tribes together for decades. He was also a successful crime lord, extorting money from his enemies with a ruthlessness that exceeded any later mafia don, says Miles Russell. Unfortunately we know very little of the man himself, for the Huns failed to write their own version of history. Born into Hunnic aristocracy early in the fifth century, Attila and his elder brother Bleda were nephews of King Rugila. The Huns were a nomadic, pastoralist society who, from the fourth century AD, had been migrating west towards the Roman Empire. Growing up, Bleda and Attila would have learnt to ride almost as soon as they could walk. They would also have been trained as archers, for the Huns were renowned for being able to dispatch arrows with great accuracy from horseback in battle. He was certainly known to have had many wives, polygamy helping to bind the Hunnic clans together. When King Rugila died inhe was succeeded by his nephews. Inhowever, Bleda was dead. Yet given what he achieved, it is hard to understand why, says John Man.

    The Parthian Shot Newsletter of the British Horseback Archery Association Issue 1, November 2009 Welcome to the Parthian Shot, occasional newsletter of the BHAA. In this inaugural issue we hope to give you an insight into the world of horseback archery from both a historical and contemporary viewpoint. In this newsletter you can expect to find articles on the finer points of riding techniques, archery skills, and opinion pieces regarding all aspects of horseback archery; including some historical background into the life and times of mounted archers throughout history. So without further ado let us saddle up with the Scythians - the original horse archers. The Scythians by Rick Lippiett Around 700 B.C., loosely allied nomad tribes conquered the steppes from the Carpathians to the Altai Mountains. The Greeks called them Scythians, the Persians named them “Saka” or “Saccae”. The related words derive from “skuza” - an ancient Indo-European word for archer (cf. English shoot). Scythians thought of themselves as the people of the bow and called themselves “Skolotoi”. Their livestock, which were their lifeblood, were fed by the grasslands; and thus the nomad tribes had to move every time their animals grazed the area clean. Horses were at the heart of this mobility Scythian Nobles - From a romanticised painting and nomads spent almost their whole lives on horseback. They were also an active warrior nation and the Scythian mounted Much of the surviving information about Herodotus mentions a royal tribe or clan, an archers were much feared across Asia the Scythians comes from the Greek elite which dominated the other Scythians.

HERALD MAGAZINE OF THE HEREND PORCELAIN MANUFACTORY HISTORY Sailing PAINTING The Formula 1 vase on the podium HEREND INTERIOR DESIGN Homely eclecticism INTRODUCTION DEAR HEREND HERALD READERS, The restaurant where I arrive has a pleasant homely feel; the light from the streetlamps impart a warm glow on the windows. Familiar friends, an inviting aroma and congenial company. We are invited to a beauti- fully set table. Suddenly, the noise, struggles and tiredness of the day come to mind and I realise it will be another late night. We have spent all day thinking about past inherited values, responsibly planning the future while at the same time not allowing the present to slip away. I am reassured that I am part of a community and culture with a lengthy history of creativity and the ability to renew itself. As the first among equals, the pressure and responsibility on us is even greater. We are bold and capable of change while others are still trying to find their way. They complain and blame others, and try to cash in on their past. We, however, carry out the task in hand and know how to pass on 19th century traditions to a 21st century world. I am suddenly struck by the realisation that my thoughts are elsewhere – I am working again. I quickly bring my thoughts back to the present giving my full attention to my host. We are seated and I find myself surrounded by many guests, my host to one side, my partner to the other. I glance at the table and a smile spreads across my face, I will be among my beloved friends after all.

Research materials: Primary sources were used which originated from Russian, Mon- golian, Latin, Persian, Arabic, Chinese, and Korean authors. The Russian Novgorod and Galicia-Volhynia Chronicles, Secret History of the Mongols, Rashid al-Din, the Yuan Shi, and the Mengda Beilu were the most significant in formulating an argument. Secondary literature by leading figures in the field of Mongol history was consulted. Research results and novelty: The main finding is that the different explanations found in primary source texts composed under Mongol governments for how these names were used in the pre-imperial period and for the double-naming phenomenon seem implausible when compared to the broader body of primary sources whose authors were not directed by an evolving Mongol imperial ideology. Furthermore, the various explanations cannot be combined into some workable model for how the double-naming phenomenon happened in the thirteenth century, since they contradict one another on fundamental issues such as whether Tatars still existed or were an extinct nation.

    Ferdinand, Siarl. “Situation of the Csángó Dialect of Moldavia in Romania.” Hungarian Cultural Studies. e-Journal of the American Hungarian Educators Association, Volume 9 (2016): http://ahea.pitt.edu DOI: 10.5195/ahea.2016.231 Situation of the Csángó Dialect of Moldavia in Romania Siarl Ferdinand Abstract: The following paper analyses the situation of the Csángó dialect spoken in the Romanian region of Moldavia. After a review of the global phenomenon of language death, its causes, and some resources to evaluate language vitality, the study focuses on the Csángó community and its Hungarian dialect. A short description of some fundamental facts about the group, such as ethnicity, religious affiliation, and linguistic background sets the base for an in-depth study of the language situation. In order to achieve that goal, the language was scrutinized according to the nine factors proposed by the UNESCO’s Language Vitality and Endangerment (LVE) framework. The results confirm previous research in the field and show that Csángó is experiencing a decisive and most difficult phase in its history. It is expected, however, that this paper can contribute to create a successful planning to preserve not only Csángó but many other languages and dialects in similar situations. Keywords: Csángó, language shift, Romania, Szeklers, Roman Catholics in Romania, Bacău Biography: Siarl Ferdinand is a Ph.D. candidate in Bilingual Studies at University of Wales Trinity Saint David. He is currently teaching at the English Language Institute of the American University in Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria.

  • BARATH Tibor, a Magyar N^Pek Ostortenete, I-III
    The Early Hungarians This volume shows to the En­ glish reader the origin of the Hun­ garians and their first civilization, — according to recent historical research. In the new light, the Hungari­ ans seem to have come from the Ancient Near East — Mesopota­ mia, Egypt and Syria — where the first Higher Civilization flourished. Their westward mov­ ing tribes reached the Middle Danube basin already in the Neo­ lithic times and had laid the foun­ dation of the future Hungary. In the subsequent periods Scythians, Huns and half-Turkised Arpad- Hungarians added their own eth­ nic and cultural contribution to the existing heritage, whereby the People acquired its final charac­ teristics by the end of the IXth century A.D. The volume (soft-bound, in-8°, 248 p., 36 ill.) can be ordered by mail, at the address of the Author: P.O. Box 697, Station “B”, Mon­ treal, Canada, H3B 3K3. About the Author The author of this volume, Tibor- Etienne BARATH, was formerly pro­ fessor at the Uni­ versity of Kolozsvar, Hungary (1940-1945), until the communist take-over of his native country. He studied history in Budapest (Ph.D.), Vienna, Paris and Montreal (B. L.S.) and prior to his nomination to the teaching post, he was Secretary of the Hun­ garian Institute in Paris (1932-1939) and fulfilled the role of Assistant-Secretary of the International Committee of Historical Sciences at the same time. He is now retired in Montreal, Canada. Prof. BARATH is author of over a hundred historical essays and also of several books, the most significant ones being: The Tax-System in Hungary, 1605-1648; History of the Hungarian Historiography, 1867- 1935 (in French); A Short History of Hungary; and the three-volume A Aici’enf History of the Hungarian Peoples with the present sequel The Early Hungar­ ians (in English).

  • Hatiralarda Kalan Soydaşlari Aramak: Macar Rahip Julian'in Büyük Macaristan Yolculuğu
    ARAŞTIRMA MAKALESİ RESEARCH ARTICLE ⦁ НАУЧНО-ИССЛЕДОВАТЕЛЬСКАЯ СТАТЬЯ İdil-Ural Araştırmaları Dergisi, 2021; 3 (1): 1-26. HATIRALARDA KALAN SOYDAŞLARI ARAMAK: MACAR RAHİP JULİAN’IN BÜYÜK MACARİSTAN YOLCULUĞU METEHAN AYDIN* ÖZ: Yaklaşık olarak bin yıldır bugünkü topraklarında yaşayan Macarlar çok daha öncesinde Urallarda yaşamaktaydılar ve buradan başlayan uzun yolculukları sonucunda Karpat Ovası’na yerleşmişlerdir. Ancak Orta Avrupa’ya yerleşip Hristiyanlaştıktan sonra bile hafızalarında doğuda bir yerlerde eski ana vatanlarında kalan soydaşlarının hatırası hep varlığını sürdürmüştür. İşte bu hatıraların da etkisiyle Dominiken Tarikatı mensubu Macar rahip Julian, batıya doğru yaklaşan Moğol tehlikesinin arifesinde doğudaki bu kayıp soydaşlarını bulup onları Hristiyanlaştırma görevini üstlenmiş ve 1235 yılında zorlu bir yolcuğa çıkmıştır. Bu uzun ve tehlikeli yolculuğunun ardından ülkesine dönen Julian, günümüz Başkiriya bölgesinde kayıp soydaşlarını İtil Bulgarlarının başkentinden iki günlük mesafede, Büyük Macaristan olarak adlandırılan bölgede bulduğunu belirtmiş ve ilk yolculuğuna başlamasından iki yıl sonra 1237’de tekrar yola çıkmıştır. Ancak Julian bu kez kayıp soydaşlarının Moğollar tarafından yok edildiği bilgisi ile karşı karşıya gelmiş, soydaşlarını bulma görevini tamamlayamamıştır. Julian, doğudaki kayıp Macar kardeşler tezinde öncü bir kişilik olarak ortaya çıksa da öncesinde bu hatıra Macar kroniklerinde, halkın bilincinde de yer edinmiş; Latin kaynaklarda doğuda ikinci bir Macar yurduna atıflarda bulunulmuştur.
