As Jens said there have been a couple excavated in western Asia. There is also a bow from central Asia at Niya. It is thought to be 1stC AD and classed as "Hunnish" Seems more often than not asymmetrical bows are tagged as such.
Let me dig around in my book cases and see what I can find.
Are you looking for general info or for more specific ideas to do with creating an impression.(re-enactment)
For just flinging arrows and having fun, Grozer's base Hunnish bow is real hard to beat for the price. #35-40 is enough to enjoy and shoot all day.
It takes time to work up in draw weight. My go to bow is #45 and its easy
on the thumb.
