Summary/Abstract: De administrando imperio, a text traditionally attributed to Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus, provides unique data on the early history of the Hungarians (besides much else). In the absence of parallel sources, the Greek forms of proper nouns have formerly been used to reconstruct Hungarian personal names primarily by the analogies of place names and by semantic tools. Th is study approaches the Greek text of the genealogical tree of the Árpáds from a new perspective by examining the manuscript tradition and by applying the tools of the auxiliary sciences (palaeography, codicology).
