Answer: The correct answer is : Ammianus Marcellinus described the Huns as savage and bestial. For this ancient writer Ammianus the origin of the Huns was not very clear and he along with other writers said that they were bad beasts that arose in the desert to harm civilization. The Huns led a life too wild that surpassed all other barbarians. When they were in a fight they shouted, they dispersed quickly, they grouped easily, they were disordered in the war but too agile.
