The pagan religion of this tribe was mediated by shamanistic figures known as taltos. The river Chidmas flew through their quasi-legendary homeland of Levedia. Figures from their mythology include the shape-shifting demon Ordog and little people known as manok. Hadur was this tribe's god of both copper smithing and war. Rulers of this tribe claimed descent from Turul, a magical falcon, and their leader Geza was converted to Christianity by St. Adalbert at Esztergom. For ten points, name this Central Asian tribe whose first Christian king was Stephen, and whose language is related to Finnish.
