Magyar resources

[Khalid ibn Walid]

OK, a thread on Magyar resources.

Trying to get lingo & image right.

Thanks to Victor1234, found a good depiction of a Magyar horseman in this music video (notice that markings on the horse) Hungarica - Ide születtem

The bow in general? or the recurve\composite bow?

[lusignan]

i think he meant the particular composite recurve bow.
If i'm not wrong it wasn't particularly limited to the mongols especially, but i think they did come up with the double back horn/glue/wood composite construction. Glue didn't get wet and spoil in the dry tundra or steppes.

Ooer.. and btw, sarmations/magyar/persian/mongolian cavalry all stem from the same source, insomuch as their individual traditions of mounted archery as well as their use of recurve/composite horn bows.
