Description
Renowned professor of archaeology Gyula László is also a first-rate story-teller, who in this impressive volume brings excitingly alive the everyday activities of the ancestors of the Hungarians who appeared in the Carpathian basin 1,100 years ago.
The results of fifty years of research are turned into lively descriptions of what grave and other archaeological finds have to tell us of ancient lands, people, and events, while the facts and deductions, the results of research in various branches of science, bring up fascinating questions about the past that still await answers.
The author has also compiled a Reader for those interested in contemporary or near-contemporary chronicles as well as what historians, other archaeologists, linguists and natural scientists have contributed to an understanding of the ancient home of the Magyars and their lives during what has become known as the Conquest Period.
