The
Utigur Bulgars or
Hunno-Bulgars were a Bulgar tribe which in the 5th and 6th centuries are known to have inhabited the steppe north-east of the
Black Sea and east the river
Don. Earlier they represented the eastern half of
Hun Empire and inhabited roughly the same area north of the
Caucasus.
The Chronicles of Kiev mention their "Ki" clan establishing Kiev in the early 500s having arrived with the Bulgars. In the mid 6th century, under the descendants of
Attila through his son
Ernakh, most of the group were conquered by Pseudo-Avars and became known as
Kutrigur and they founded Kiev while only a western portion retained the Utigur ethnicon. Under
Sandilch, they were temporarily coerced by
Byzantium into conflicts with their Kutrigurs relatives before the Hunno-Bolgars were united under
Kubrat's
Great Bulgaria. They were settled in
Syrmia (Unogari) before moving under the leadership of
Kuber to
Pelagonia.
