~Bonus Post~ Info on Attila the Hun and NI Hungary Menu for Next Week

Nanetta Komiszár from NI sent Misty and I some information about Attila the Hun(garian).
The most interesting tidbit (to me) was this: Legend says that he was laid to rest in a triple coffin made of gold, silver, and iron, along with some of the spoils of his conquests. His men diverted a section of the Tisza, buried the coffin under the riverbed, and then were killed to keep the exact location a secret.

This was his land:



You might wonder why these two things are in the same Bonus Post. Well, the receptionist that sends the weekly menu is named, yep - you guessed it - Attila. Along with over 50 other people at NIH. This is from a Wikipedia article about Hungarian naming:

By law every person can have a maximum of two surnames (most people have only one; those who have two have to hyphenate them) and a maximum of two given names (religious names not included, see below). The given names have to be chosen by the parents from an officially approved list of several thousand names; if the chosen name is not on the list, the parents can apply to get the chosen name approved. The names get approval if they aren't derogatory, can be written and pronounced easily and can be recognised as either male or female. Recently the list got widened by many foreign names, which have to be written following their Hungarian spelling, e.g. Jennifer becomes Dzsenifer or Jessica as Dzsesszika.

Here's the menu:
