‎ Menumorut‏‎ ¹⁾ Notes: See comment on his daughter. Menumorut's existence is unlikely. If his existence is believed... Menumorut or Menumorout (Bulgarian: Меноморут; Hungarian: Ménmarót) was the ruler of the lands between the rivers Mureș, Someș and Tisza at the time of the Hungarian conquest of the Carpathian Basin around 900, according to the Gesta Hungarorum, a Hungarian chronicle written after 1150 by an unidentified author, referred to as Anonymus. Historians debate whether Menumorut was an actual ruler or a fictional character created by the author, since the Gesta tells of multiple figures, including Menumorut, who are not identified in any other primary sources, and does not name any of the enemies of the invading Hungarians written of in other contemporary accounts of the invasion. According to Anonymus, Menumorut's duchy was populated primarily with Khazars and Székelys, and he acknowledged the suzerainty of the (unnamed) ruling Byzantine Emperor at the time.

Pal Engel (who has been used here to construct this early Hungarian tree) argues that Menumorut is an in imaginary figure.
