Attila was of Indo-European origin, the Huns came from the Scythians that were Aryan people, the Hungarians still regard Attila as their ancestor and the founder of their nation.
The battle of Gaul in 451 was a battle between the pagan side led by Attila and the Huns who were joined by many other Indo-European tribes such as the Goths against the christian Rome of the Constantinople Empire and the Visigoths who converted to christianity.
The Mongolian origin of Attila is one of the greatest historical frauds, Attila was white and surely he looked like this
will i thought the huns where asian , origins depicted to be same as the people in Kazakhstan the altai mountains
source provided by Jordanes, who cites a description given by Priscus about atila :
He was indeed a lover of war, yet restrained in action, mighty in counsel, gracious to suppliants and lenient to those who were once received into his protection. Short of stature, with a broad chest and a large head; his eyes were small, his beard thin and sprinkled with grey; and he had a flat nose and swarthy skin, showing evidence of his origin.
Some scholars have suggested that this description is typically East Asian, because it has all the combined features that fit the physical type of people from Eastern Asia.
