Abstract

It is known that the Hungarians, who were transferred from Asia to Europe, have been in many geographical regions throughout history and interacted with various tribes there. The Hungarians lived in a Ural unit for a while, then they left the Ugor community and started to live independently. Following an independent life, Hungarians interacted with various tribes. Huns are also thought to be among the tribes with which the Hungarians interacted, and we see that this relationship has an important place in the Hungarian consciousness as much as it is reected in scientic studies. The aim of this work is not to explain the idea of the Hun-Hungarian relationship scientically but try to show how this thought is reected in Hungarian legends and chronicles. In line with this, this work will give information about Medieval Hungarian Chronicles, examine the opinions about the Hun-Hungarian relationships in the chronicles, and in the light of these chronicles convey the Hun-Hungarian legends living in the collective consciousness of Hungarians. i. However, when the abundant number of chronicles which are of great importance for Hungarians is taken into consideration, we have narrowed down the scope by looking into the chronicles by Anonymus and Simon Kezai, chronicles which are the fundamental chronicles of Hungarian cultural history and which also have formed the basis for other chronicles to follow. The Hun-Hungarian relationship and its legends will be limited to how they are represented in these chronicles.
