Fajsz
Fajsz (? – ?), also known as Fali or Falicsi, Grand Prince of the Magyars (c. 950).
Fajsz was the son of Jutocsa (Jutas) the third son of Árpád and he was ruling over the Magyar tribes at the time of the Byzantine Emperor Kōnstantinos Porhyrogennētos" [K%C5%8Dnstantinos Porhyrogennētos: "De Administrando Imperio".] .
His rule was a period marked more by the various tribes acting in concert (for raids) under tribal rule than by a strong central leadership. He was possibly dethroned after the Battle of Augsburg (Hungarian "augsburgi csata", 10 August 955 and Battle of Lechfeld in German historio-graphy), where King Otto I of Germany, with the combined forces of Henry I, Duke of Bavaria and the unexpected arrival of Conrad the Red [Previously duke of Lorraine (Lotharingia), but, stripped of this title in 954 as a result of his earlier alliance with the Magyars.] with a large following of Franconian knights, won a decisive victory over the Magyars.
