Historical sources give evidence of the mixed ethnic composition of the Hungarians before the conquest of the Carpathian Basin 2,8. The diverse origin of the Hungarian tribes has also been documented in physical anthropological research. Craniometrical analyses revealed that the Europid crania type was predominant in the conquerors, with smaller amounts of Europo-Mongoloid characters 9. Regional groups of the ancient Hungarian anthropological series show morphometric parallels ranging from the Crimean Peninsula to Kazakh steppe 10.
