| 520 | |a The Huns have often been treated as primitive barbarians with no advanced political organisation. Their place of origin was the so-called "backward steppe." It has been argued that whatever political organisation they achieved they owed to the "civilizing influence" of the Germanic peoples they encountered as they moved west. This book argues that the steppes of Inner Asia were far from backward and that the image of the primitive Huns is vastly misleading. They already possessed a highly sophisticated political culture while still in Inner Asia and, far from being passive recipients of advanced culture from the West, they passed on important elements of Central Eurasian culture to early medieval Europe, which they helped create.--publisher's description. | ||
