[2]The Gesta Hungarorum mentions that Ed and Edemen received land possession around the forest of the Mátra Mountains, especially in Gyöngyöspata – Heves County, after the conquest of the Carpathian Basin by the Magyars (around 895).Amade Aba is another prominent descendant of the family; he held several castles and possessions on the northern and north-eastern parts of the kingdom in the first decade of the 14th century.Various members of the Rhédey von Kis-Rhéde branch of Genus Aba held many royal offices and acquired many hereditary titles.In medieval Hungarian chronicles both the Aba and the Árpád dynasty are identified as descendants of Attila, King of the Hunnic empire.Detailed whole genome sequencing data revealed the paternal ancestry of the Árpád dynasty originating from East Eurasia, with potential Hun connections.
