Bulcsú


Bulcsú was a Hungarian chieftain, one of the military leaders of prince Taksony of Hungary, a descendant of Árpád. He held the title of horka. He was one of the most important figures of the Hungarian invasions of Europe. During these military campaigns, the Magyars threatened much of Western Europe; therefore a common saying at that time was "A sagittis Hungarorum, libera nos Domine" Modena, 925 CE. After his army had lost the disastrous Battle of Lechfeld in 955, he was caught by the German victors and executed.
