          Priscus v interesting; arguably an oft ignored contemporary mid5thC ref to parts of Britain in 440s being under Attila's overlordship! :)

          Whilst perhaps surprising, idea of Hunnic presence+short-lived dominion over mid5thC "ASs" in Britain has, arguably, a reasonable context >

          > both in terms of ethnic complexity of 5thC immigrants + Hedeager's case for 5thC N Germany & S Scandinavia being both under Hunnic rule...

          @caitlinrgreen Fascinating read! IMHO most maps of who-ruled-what in 5th C Europe are oversimplified; reality prob was much more fluid.

          @caitlinrgreen Whole region seems a fractured soup, where Saxon-, Goth-, "Roman-" & Hun-led factions rose & dissolved constantly.

          @STORI3D_PAST Indeed, tho Peter Heather has some interesting points in how a sense of 'tribe' could survive this--they disappear+reappear!

          @Umarkarim89 Yes, the Huns in Europe sometimes called Black Huns; those in Afghanistan/Pakistan etc usually called White Huns :)

          @Umarkarim89 I seem to recall that name is a geographic marker rather than anything else, though Roman writers misunderstood.

          @Umarkarim89 I think it's a matter of debate, the exact relationship, but often assumed part of same group & phenomenon!
