Folklore & Fairy Tales from the Magyars (Hungary) - Here we have a rich mine of folk and fairy tales from the Magyar tradition. I've taken the following extract from Wikipedia as a starting point for this introduction';According to Andrs Rona-Tas the locality in which the Hungarians, the Manicha-Er group, emerged was between the Volga river and the Ural Mountains. Between the 8th and 5th centuries BC, the Magyars embarked upon their independent existence and the early period of the proto-Hungarian language began.Around 830 AD, when lmos was about 10 years old, the seven related tribes, namely Jeno, Ker, Keszi, Kurt-Gyarmat, Megyer Nyek and Tarjn formed a confederation in Etelkz, called Hetmagyar (Seven Magyars). Their leaders, the Seven chieftains of the Magyars, besides lmos, included Elod, Ond, Kond, Tas, Huba and Thtm, who took a blood oath, swearing eternal loyalty to lmos'In a simple context, therefore, we have a long Magyar history and a deep well of tales and lore from which to draw.
