Dear Troels,
I ment Blucina and Zhuran, cf. Tejral (ÖAWDphil 240, Wien 1990, 
43 f.). Fara is said to be one of the forefathers of the Agilolfinger, 
the dukes of the Baiuvari up to Charlemagne, at least according to 
Wenskus RGA 1, 96 f. . But Bavaria is not Bohemia and  all 
Bavarian dukes we know of were proper Catholic christians without 
grave goods.
Kind regards
