Dinner with Atilla the Hun // Priscus 448 CE // Primary Source

[The Lawspeaker]

Here we have particularly special primary source describing a meeting with one of the great leaders of history - Atilla, leader of the Hunnic peoples. Priscus was a Roman diplomat from the fifth century, who took part in a diplomatic mission on behalf of the Eastern Roman Emperor Theodosius II to the court of Atilla himself. This is his story - in his words. This is part of a collaboration with nine other History Youtubers on the incredible history of the Pannonian Basin - centred on modern day Hungary: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list... You can enjoy nine more videos on this topic in this playlist, but I would like to give a specific shout out to Epimetheus' video giving more context to the story of Atilla and the Huns: https://youtu.be/NQImNDTC4rE
