A reference to the name "Romanian" could be contained in the "Nibelungenlied" (written between 1180 and 1210), where a ""Duke Ramunc of Walachia,/with seven hundred vassals, galloped up before her/like flying wild birds men saw them ride"". It is argued that ""Ramunc"" could describe a symbolic figure, representing Romanians. In a document issued about the same period (1190 ?) by King Béla III of Hungary the then recent uprising of the Bulgarians and Vlachs is mentioned with the words "against the fury of the Bulgarians and Romanians"
