Hey people, long time no post here.  I realize there are probably multiple threads on this subject, yet i ask 'was attila the Hun Mongolian or Turk?' Same question goes for the 'Hun Empire'. From what i understand Attila took over a Indo-Iranian/Scythian Empire, possibly spoke a early dialect of Bashkir and has been said to be of ethnic Turk and/or Goth. So there seems to be a lot of confusion going on about the Man & Empire. Thanks. |

Attila is probably that person in history whose heritage is shared among the most nation. From mongolia to hungary many nations consider Attila as their ancestor.
It was his titles, originally he was from one of these tribes : "Attila, rex hunorum, medorum, gotorum et danorum"

Judging from the location of the Empire, it encomposed a large tract of Europe and central Asia. There were Turkish people from Bulgaria-Ukraine on to the east. It seems judging by location that he was most likely Turk from the region, more so than from other groups. But that is but a guess.

Nice drawing, but swords of that time were not that curved.

It was his titles, originally he was from one of these tribes : "Attila, rex hunorum, medorum, gotorum et danorum" I found the easy way. I say that Atilla doesn't belong to nations who wants to own him but Atilla owns us all. |

Haha! In Hunnic Empire, Attila own YOU! Edit: Since this is an international forum, I need to explain the origin of this joke: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakov_Smirnoff#Russian_reversal(In Hungary/Turkey/Bulgaria/etc., it is popular to claim Attila. In Hunnic Empire, Attila claim YOU!) |

The failures and reverses which await men - and one after another sadden the brow of youth - add a dignity to the prospect of human life, which no Arcadian success would do.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing.

I think there was no such a big difference between Turkic & Mongolic peoples in that time (Hunnic era).

There were linguistic differences as attested from Turkic and Mongolic words recorded from the Tabghach (Tuo-ba) language in Chinese sources.
