Abstract
Huns, Avars and conquering Hungarians were Migration Period nomadic groups which arrived in three successive waves in the Carpathian Basin between the 5th and 9th centuries. Based on historical data each of these groups are thought to have arrived from Asia, although their exact origin and relation to other ancient and modern populations has been debated. In this study we have sequenced 9 Hun, 143 Avar and 113 Hungarian conquest period samples, and identified three core populations, representing immigrants from each period, with no recent European ancestry. Our results suggest that this immigrant core of both Huns and Avars originated in present day Mongolia, and their origin can be traced back to Xiongnus. On the other hand, the immigrant core of the conquering Hungarians derived from an earlier admixture of Mansis, early Sarmatians and descendants of late Xiongnus. In addition, we detected shared Hun-related ancestry in numerous Avar and Hungarian conquest period genetic outliers indicating a genetic link between these successive nomadic groups. Aside from the immigrant core groups we identified that the majority of the individuals from each period were local residents, harboring native European ancestry.
As for the native European people, it should be noted that it was discovered that the population of Neolithic Hungary harbored East Asian mtDNA lineages (the appearance of the East Asian mtDNA is in line with an elucidation of the formation of the genetic makeup of some Near Eastern Neolithic samples related to the Anatolian Neolithic farmers and to the EEF (European Neolithic farmers).)

Interestingly, similarities in pottery with Chinese neolithic pottery were reported for the neighboring Neolithic Vinča culture. There was the Vinča proto-writing (known as the Danube script, Vinča signs, Vinča script, Vinča–Turdaș script) in the Neolithic Vinča culture. The Neolithic Vinča culture is considered by some as a possible source for cuneiform writing in the Sumerian language.
