History

The primary source of their origins is the Gesta Hungarorum of Simon of Kéza, in which the author writes:

Gutkeled (genus) Denar 12461260 Bela IV Duke Stefan and Ban Stefan Gutkeled Slavonia
Sed postea, tempore Petri regis Kelad et Gut intrant tres frateres ex gente Svevorum procreati. De castello Stof sunt nativi. ″But afterwards, during the reign of king Peter, Kelad and Gut three brothers of Swabian descent immigrated. They were born at the castle of Stof.″
Gutkeled (genus) Turul

The castle "Stof" is assumed to be a corruption of Stauf, meaning either castle Stauf in Staufen im Breisgau or the Hohenstaufen castle in Württemberg. The king mentioned is Péter Orseolo, placing the arrival of the Gutkeleds to Hungary sometime around the 1040s.
