So here are some examples which are considered Hunnic findings.
1. Sword of Altlussheim, from Germany (Baden-Würtemberg). The Huns widely used what is called "spatha" in latin, which basically means longsword (in contrast with the gladius). They did not have sabers, which came with Hungarians, so this in itself is ok, because Scythians used similarly spathas. But the ornaments are Persian imitations on this basically. The lapis lazuli
2. Stamped faces on golden sheets, from a Hun kurgan in Ukraine. There are some parallels of this in other steppe findings, but not that typical.
3 and 4. Diadems, first from Csorna (Hungary), the other is from Kerch (Crimea).
