Peter Veres linked by a longstanding friendship with researchers of Uralic languages. To every specialist in the field of Ethnography and Anthropology scientist paves its own path of understanding. Many times I watched him crowded round with participants of conference. It is not only the gift of sociability and cordiality, but the attraction is and great erudition of P. Veres. Professor of the St. Petersburg Pedagogical University of A. I. Herzen, E. A. Okladnikova (with her father, academician A. P. Okladnikov worked at conferences with P. Veres), notes that the Hungarian ethnographer belongs to the pleiad powerful professionals of History, Ethnography and Anthropology. The article summarizes the special field, origins of prior to Hungarian nomadism, which is largely justified by Peter Veres. It describes the concept of P. Veres based on the work of Hungarian, Russian and American scientists. He showed localization of prehungarian in the past in the area of Ob and millennial migration routes. The article emphasizes the role of natural disasters in finding places of settlement by prehungarian, notes identity: sustainability of language and culture. The challenge was the swamping and drought in Asia, and the Answer is the development of creative abilities of ethnicity and foundation of habitat in Europe.
