Bána (genus)

Bána (Bana) was the name of a gens (Latin for "clan"; nemzetség in Hungarian) in the Kingdom of Hungary. According to the tradition the Cseszneky family has descended from the Bána clan.

History

The Clan Bána's origin - in György Györffy's opinion - traces back to the 10th century. Another notable historian, Erik Fügedi, suggested that the Clan Bána was a collateral branch of the Clan Katapán (Koppán) descending from the princely house of the Pecheneg Talmat tribe. According to the medieval Gesta Hungarorum, Ketel Cuman (in fact Pecheneg or Kabar) khagan joined the people of Hungarian Grand Prince Álmos at Kiev in 884 CE. After the conquest of Hungary, one part of Ketel's clan settled down between Sátorhalom and Tolcsva river, whilst the other part where the Vág river falls into the Danube. At the bank of Vág Ketel's son, Alaptolma constructed the castle of Komárom, where later they were buried in a Pagan way. Other historians think that the relationship between the Katapáns and the Bánas was not agnatic rather matrilineal, and the Bánas descended from the Counts of Bana, who were vassals of the Avar Tudun, and as such subvassals of Charlemagne. The Clan Bána had its primeval estates around Bana village and in the Bakony mountains. They were hereditary Wildgraves of Bakony.

    by: Papa Winnie

    Ohhh oooo!
    The dance hall has to ram, the dance hall has to ram
    It has to ram in a style and fashion
    The nation has to jam, the nation has to jam
    We gonna jam in a style and pattern
    Because is I, Papa Winnie, on the microphone stand
    The people doesn't know where I really come from
    Me tall, me no short, me slim, me not fat
    And everytime I rap, me say the crowd hear me say
    You are my sunshine my only sunshine
    You make me happy, when skies are gray
    You never know, Dear, how much I love you
    So please don't take my sunshine away
    You are the woman, and I am the man
    And everything we do, jah knows we do it real strong
    We are just modeling up the dance hall, in a style and fashion
    Me and my girl, her name is Liana
    The talk of the town, is that we have two babies, twins
    One of them fat and one of them slim
    We call them Rootsie, Rootsie,
    Rootsie and Boopsie, Rootsie, Rootsie, Rootsie and Boops
    You are my sunshine...
    Sufferation in the land, sufferation in the land
    Killing all my natian Lord I can't understand
    Famine in the land, tribulation getting strong
    They always have a plan to fool we Africans
    Creating war in the East
    War in the West
    War inthe North
    And war inthe South
    If love were a thing that money can buy
    The rich man would live, and the poor man would die
