Research notes
✓ Arpad (d. 907), 'magnus Turciae princeps' (De Administrando Imperio of Constantine Porphyrogenitus, which names his sons Tarkatzus, Ielech, Iutotzas and Zaltas, and Liuntika); led the Magyar settlement of the Carpathian basin 895. Founder of the Arpad dynasty. TOP - DELIBERATE STOP: his father Almos and the earlier generations (Ugek, 'de genere Magog') come only from the Gesta and Gestis Hungarorum, which Medieval Lands calls speculative and 'unlikely to be historically reliable'. Source: Medieval Lands (fmg.ac, Cawley), read 3 Nov 2026: 'Hungary, Kings'. [DIRECT ANCESTOR OF THE COMPILER: flag added 2 Nov 2026 by walking the tree from Aynsley, so that this marker is reliable and can be searched.]
