    Lightbulb German (or Hungarian) soldiers in the Admont Bible, Salzburg, c.1140AD

    German soldiers in the Admont (or Gebhard) Bible, Salzburg, 12th century (Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, Wien. Cod. ser. nov. 2701)
    Joshua is given a banner / Taking of Jericho
    Defeat of the Midianites by Gideon
    German peasants with sickles, in Boaz and Ruth
    Battle of Mount Gilboa / King Saul falls on his sword


    There doesn't seem to be much support for the idea that the Admont Bible portrays Hungarians.
