Ultzindur (fl. 460) was a Hun nobleman and a blood relative of Attila.

He lived in the Danube region after Attila (that is, after the death of the Hunnic king and the collapse of his empire),[1] along with Emnetzur, who was also a blood relative of Attila.[2] They held "Oescus, Utum and Almus on the right bank of the Danube",[3] in Dacia Ripensis.[4]

Etymology

His name, like Tuldich, Tuldila, has uld-, ult- as its first element.[5]
