Turul (Hungarian)
Turul is a mythological bird that is represented as a mix between a hawk and a falcon. Turul is often represented with its wings deployed and with a sword in its talons. One of the most beautiful and mysthical symbol of Hungarians is the Turul bird. The Turul is probably a large falcon, and the origin of the word is most likely Turkic: togr?l or turgul means a medium to large bird of prey.
In Hungarian tradition, Turul bird presumably originated as the clan symbol used in the 9th and 10th centuries by the ruling House of Arpad. In the legends of the ancient Hungarian tribes Turul bird turns up several times. In the legend of Emese, the mother of all Hungarians , recorded in the Gesta Hungarorum and the Chronicon Pictum, the turul is mentioned as occurring in a dream of Emese, when she was already pregnant.
