Page "Huns" Paragraph 40

After Attila's death, his son Ellac overcame his brothers Dengizich and Ernakh ( Irnik ) to become king of the Huns.

However, former subjects soon united under Ardaric, leader of the Gepids, against the Huns at the Battle of Nedao in 454.

This defeat and Ellac's death ended the European supremacy of the Huns, and soon afterwards they disappear from contemporary records.

The Pannonian basin then was occupied by the Gepids, whilst various Gothic groups remained in the Balkans also.
