2. Hungary has been successively occupied by three Scythian colonies:- 1. The Huns of Attila; 2. The Abares, in the sixth century; and, 3. The Turks or Magyars, A.D. 889, the immediate and genuine ancestors of the modern Hungarians, whose connection with the two former is extremely faint and remote. The 'Prodromus' and 'Notitia' of Matthew Belius appear to contain a rich fund of information concerning ancient and modern Hungary. I have seen the extracts in Bibliotheque Ancienne et Moderne, tom. xxii. p. 1-51, and Bibliotheque Raisonee, tom. xvi. p. 127-175.
