Tartalmi kivonat:The number of the conquering Hungarians is a long debated issue in the Hungarian historical research The main source of calculations is based upon the so-called Muslim Ğayhānī-tradition (Ibn Rusta, Gardizi) which states that the Hungarian king (k.n.de–kündü) rode out with 20.000 horsemen. Besides this, the medieval Hungarian conscriptions and the number of graves from the age of the Hungarian conquest of the Carpathian Basin constitute a rather small source-basis of these demographical hypotheses. Some scholars supposed that the number of the population of the conquering Hungarian and Qabar tribes was about 400.000–500.000. Other scholars calculated a much smaller Hungarian population about 100.000. It has been even assumed that the number of Hungarians was not more than 14.000. It was debated whether the army of the Hungarians could have been 20.000 (2 tumens), or it was much smaller. All these calculations depend on the economy and way of life of the conquering Hungarians in the 9-10th centuries (nomad or semi-nomad). According to the author of the study, we can estimate the Hungarian army at about 14.000-20.000 and if we accept their nomadic way of life and multiple their number with 5-6, we can estimate their numbers 30.000–100.000, which seems to be a realistic judging.
