	D. Sinor - The Outlines of Hungarian Prehistory
		Hungarian historians are, and always have been, very conscious of the fact that the history of their people neither starts in 895, nor is the continuation of the history of those peoples who had earlier lived in the Danube valley.
		Hungarians, as a whole, have always considered themselves the descendants of the conquerors, and the Conquest is but an episode, admittedly a very important one, in the history of their nation.
		According to Hungarian tradition, the mythical ancestors of the Huns and the Hungarians, Hunor and Magyar, raped the daughters of the Alan prince Dula and the daughters-in-law of an otherwise undetermined Belar.

		This idea also refutes the romantic notion that the Hungarians were purely a battered, fleeing army of males who, their wives and children having perished, had to generate their own bloodlines in the new homeland with women they took as slaves.
		Hereafter, the descendants of Vazul of the House of Árpád sat on the royal throne of Hungary for a quarter of a millennium.
		It was particularly Transylvania and its Hungarian (Székely) inhabitants that were to suffer greatly from the raids of greater or smaller Tatar forces which later invaded the country, often as allies of the Turks.

	Lazar: HUNGARY - A Brief History
		Among Hungarian leading circles, an awareness of some kind of "Scythian origin" lived on vividly, and those who proclaimed themselves the descendants of ancients bearing bows and sabers and mounted on horses seemed to hold hunting, in addition to fighting, to be the sole pastime of a gentleman.
		At that time, it was certainly common knowledge that the Hungarians had split in two before the Conquest, and that only the smaller group came west and the larger remained in the east, in the Great Ancestral Land.
		And the Etelköz Hungarians were very familiar with the shores of the Black Sea down to Byzantium, the Balkan Peninsula, the Carpathian Basin itself, and, indeed, all of Central Europe to the west.

		In 1912 Gombocz published his famous monography about the Bulgaro-Turkic loanwords in Hungarian - a work which exercised a stimulating influence on the researches in Hungarian prehistory in general and on the formation of the scholarly personality of Gyula Moravcsik in particular.
		In a series of excellent papers(16) he pointed out that the Ancient Hungarians were already acquainted with Christianity before the conquest and that the influence of the Byzantine culture manifested itself in the missionary work of the Byzantine church most effectively.

	Life of Louis Ligeti
		On a Hungarian scholarship, he studied Chinese subjects with Henri Maspéro, Tibetan philology - in the wake of Csoma de Kőrös - with Jacques Bacot, and first and foremost, the Mongolian and related fields with highly versatile Paul Pelliot, his most influential professor in Paris.
		From 1936 he was elected corresponding member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and an ordinary member from 1947.
		He published in Hungarian and in foreign languages (first of all in his favourite French); he wrote for the narrow circle of connoisseurs and for all literate Hungarians in a wise, well- refined style.

		There is a theory of Hungarian origin from the Huns although it is not the mainstream accepted one as is the Finno-Ugric.
		considering the Hungarians long residence in the steppe it is not inconceivable it hass actuallt been suggested that they assimilated Hun people and quite possibly served as a contingent within the mixed Hunnic hordes.
		The Szekely people of Transylvania who are Hungarian and speak Hungarian, have a very strong folk tradition and belief that they are direct and pure descendants from Attila's Huns, the Szekely even have their own national anthem which mentions there Hunnic ancestry.

		The linguistic relationship of Hungarian to the Finno-Ugrian language family is rarely contested even by proponents of other theories of origin, only the degree of this supposed exclusive relationship and most especially with the historical consequences based on it.
		Hungarian is supposed to be an independent language within this group for at least 4,000 years, based on its many unique features and is also the largest member of the group and the most dissimilar to the rest of this language group.
		Whatever their "ultimate" roots were, the other branches of the Hungarian family tree cannot be ignored but also must be given relative status to the degree of their influence.

	The Hungarian Quarterly, VOLUME XLVI * No. 180 * Winter 2005
		Antal Szerb (1901-1945) is best known in his native country as a literary historian and critic, the author of a History of Hungarian Literature (1934) and a threevolume History of World Literature (1941), two ground-breaking and immensely popular works which challenge the sweep of any novel.
		Szerb must surely have known that "the otherwise unknown Emil Vidor" (there could hardly have been an aspect of Hungarian literature he would not have known) was none other than Frigyes Kerényi, the classically trained poet popular in the eighteen-forties who had staged a "poetic contest" with the great Sándor Petőfi.
		On the Bastion Promenade he imagined spying the professor of philosophy at the university of Pest, Ákos Pauler, among the strolling crowd, then jumped unexpectedly to the image of budding lovers sketched against the background of the sauntering philosophers and generals.

		Written between 1282-1285, the Gesta Hungarorum is an ingenious and imaginative historical fiction of prehistory, medieval history and contemporary social history.
		The author divides Hungarian history into two periods: Hunnish-Hungarian prehistory and Hungarian history, giving a division which persisted in Hungary up to the beginnings of modern historiography.
		The book is also significant because of the author's legal-theoretical framework of corporate self government and constitutional law, inspired by French and Italian sources and practice, which made this chronicle become an integral part of Hungarian historiography.

		Thus the acknowledged fact that Hungarian clearly differs from the Ob-Ugric languages is transformed to "Hungarian recognised as an isolate".
		AM discards the hypothesis of a common Ugric proto-language on the basis of well-known phonological difficulties with the reconstruction, as well as an historical argument: she claims that the belief in Hungaro-Ob-Ugric relatedness is merely based on the erroneous etymology hungarus ~ Yugria.
		This may be the case in the case of Hungarian, but it does not say anything about the pre-agglutination state of the language.
