You probably mean the Volga Finns-as far as i know, ancestors of today finns were pretty much living in the same teritorry as today...
And if it's worth anything-in the south slavic tales-Attila was known as Atil the Dogface...as for the rest of the huns, i really don't know-although they're constantly portrayed as more or less average looking europeans in various documentaries...which is absurd...

Yes dude, for real.
The Huns that came into Europe probably mixed with peoples they came by.

What does a hun look like does he look like a mongol or a Turk
what's the deal. Please post pic if you have.
Because on the pics I have seen they look more european then the turks and mongols with this I mean bigger and harrier.
Btw is it true that they wern't a ethnic group but a mix of CA people fins and so on.
