The only "ethnic marker" for all groups described by such terminology seems to have been their costume and hairstyle, including pigtails and kaftans which were not adopted by any other nomads in Hungary. Likewise, the more remote areas of Kunság continued to practice "traditional household slaughter" of animals, which included the breaking of bones; this may also suggest that they maintained some pre-Christian rituals. Though they learned agriculturalist skills from their neighbors, Kunság's residents remained attached to pastoralism, and resisted feudal pressures by relying on commons and homesteads. They continued to rate cattle-herding as a worthy occupation, and adorned their homes with the skulls of horses.
