Dive into the opening mission of Attila the Hun’s campaign in Age of Empires II and uncover the surprising truth behind one of its most memorable moments: the hunt for the Iron Boar. Did Attila really kill his brother Bleda on a hunting trip? Was there ever a giant, history‑shaking boar in the sources? And how did this story end up everywhere from pop‑history blogs to the AoE2 wiki? Using medieval scholarship, primary sources, and a bit of cinematic archaeology, we trace the origins of this long‑lived myth—and reveal how a 1950s sword‑and‑sandals film may have shaped the way millions of players understand Attila’s rise to power. If you enjoy history, games, or watching myths get skewered, you’re in the right place. Check me out on Twitch / manbeast_the_og where I play sets, cast, and play community games! You can also find me on FB / manbeast.aoe and Insta / manbeast_og Massive shoutout to Dom Husk for letting me use his Huns LoFI remix for the background of this video!

I used various secondary sources which are not available (for free) online (such as Michael Babcock's 'The Night Attila Died'), but have endeavored to find some secondary sources which are still useful for wider reading, and have included these below. Bibliography: Pop-History Sources: Bleda's Wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleda (accessed 06/02/26) History Hit's page on Atilla the Hun: https://www.historyhit.com/facts-abou... (accessed 06/02/26) Medievalists.net article on depictions on Atilla (this is super helpful generally, and this website consistently produces good, readible pop-history content): https://www.medievalists.net/2020/04/... (accessed 06/02/26) Scholarly Sources: As noted above, various other sources were used, but these are freely available online (for those who want to explore further). The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon (the original work on this period, quite dated now, but still useful for an overview): https://www.ccel.org/g/gibbon/decline... A History of Atilla and the Huns by E.A. Thompson (less dated, but still on the older side. A useful source to understand the origins of modern scholarship): https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.... Rome and the Sasanian Empire in the Fifth Century A.D: A Necessary Peace, a PhD Thesis, by Craig Morley (this does not specialise in the Huns, but it gives a good context to the geopolitics of the era, and makes a strong argument that the Roman policy towards the Sasanians was at times dictated by how powerful the Huns were on the Empire's Western frontier): https://livrepository.liverpool.ac.uk... Primary Sources: You can access fragments of Priscus (in English) here: https://sourcebooks.web.fordham.edu/s... You can access Jordannes' Getica (in English) here: https://archive.org/details/gothichis...
