Kende - Hungarian royal title; one of the kings of the dual-monarchy of the early Hungarians

"The kende was one of the kings of the dual-monarchy of the early Hungarians along with the gyula or war-chief. The function of the kende is believed to have been a religious one. At the time of the Magyar migration to Pannonia, the kende was named Kurszán. Upon Kurszán's death in a raid in approximately 904 CE, the office was taken up by the gyula Árpád, creating a single-head monarchy for Hungary. Though there are some scholars who believe that Árpád was the kende, who later took up the functions of the gyula. - Wikipedia"
