From Darkness into Light. Robert Ratonyi
No accurate source for the origin of the name exists. It is speculated that the name Magyar may have derived from the name of one of the seven tribes (Nyék, Megyer, Kürt-Gyarmat, Tarján, Jenő, Kér, and Keszi) that occupied what is now Hungary in the seventh and eighth centuries. Although Jews have lived in Hungary since the thirteenth century, they have never been accepted as citizens with the same rights as their Christian counterparts.
