Since
more than 200 years several estimations have been made about the identity of the West
(European) Hun's. Scientists have proposed them as Turks, Fins, Fin-Ugor, Uygur,
Mongolians, Turkish-Mongolian mixtures, Turkish-Mongolian Manchu mixtures or that their
origin is directly from the Slav or they belong to the German race or to the Caucasian
tribes. But with the examinations that were made in near past it became clearer that they
were of Turkish origin and had been the grandsons of the Asian Hun's.
- The Language of the West Hun's
-
- The language of the
European Hun's had been Turkish. The names of the dynasty members are as follows: Karaton
(kada don - dress), Muncuk (bead, Attila's father), Attila (estimated from name of the
place he was born Etil = Itil = Volga), Ilek (= Ilig = Illig), Dengizik (Dengiz= from
Sea), Irnek (little soldier) (the last three had been Attila's sons), Aybars, Oktar
(Attila's uncles), Arikan (= Arig-kan = eminent, noble queen). Well known personalities:
Basik, Kursik, Atakam, Eshkam; Communities: Agacheri, Shar (sari = white) Ogur and Kimiz
(in Priskos). It is even possible to draw connection between the West Hun dynasty to the
Asian Tan-hu's.
