Talk:Hunni
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The research of this article is sub-par. There are lots of crack-pot association between Chinese and non-Chinese terms. The Chinese didn't not write their historical accounts in collaboration with the Persians and Greeks. Therefore one shouldn't make automatic association between Chinese terms and Armenian, Persian or Greek terms, even though they do refer to northern Eurasian nomads and do sound similar. However, there are instances where one nomadic group "borrows" the name of another when migrating across the steppes. Also, some Chinese transliterations are anachronistic. "Husimi" is definitely not something that would appear in Xia Dynasty Chinese records.
