It is also near thermal springs in an area that could serve as a harbour, an important factor for settlers in the Roman period and the Middle Ages. The excavation in the heart of the Hungarian capital offered a look into some two thousand years of Budapest’s history, as we found the remains from many centuries lying one below the other (Fig. 1). In the Middle Ages, this area was called Budafelhévíz, but no archaeological remains had been known from the area until now, with the exception of the Church of the Holy Trinity discovered in 1906. Although there was indirect evidence suggesting that the area had been inhabited in the Roman period, there was hardly any archaeological data on settlement density. The present research has brought new and significant results in terms of both the medieval and the Roman-period topography.

A Budapest szívében folyó ásatás a főváros múltjának mintegy kétezer éves történetébe engedett betekintést. A munka során ennek a sok évszázados történetnek az egymásra rakódott emlékeit találtuk meg. A középkorban a területet Budafelhévíznek nevezték, de ennek eddig ‒ az 1906-ban előkerült Szentháromság-templomon kívül ‒ régészeti szempontból feltárt maradványát nem ismertük. A római korban ugyan közvetett adatokból sejthető volt a terület lakottsága, de beépítettségéről régészeti adattal alig rendelkeztünk. A mostani kutatás a középkori és a római kori topográfia szempontjából egyaránt új és jelentős eredményeket hozott.

In the southeast corner of the today’s building, the no 27/2 well was unearthed in a partial medieval basement. Beside a large amount of ceramics, various glass findings have been found in the 2 m wide bottommost aqueous, muddy layer. This layer preserved the organic materials, leathers,wooden objects and also the vegetable seeds. In the same place, a tin cup with a narrow bottom and a widening funnel-shaped mouth was also found, which has a mildly outcurving rim. Under the rim and on the middle of its side run two pair of incised decoration lines, and a third one near the base. A „lamb of god” depiction is inside its base (Fig. 4–5). No tin cups have been discovered during archaeological excavations so far and the sources at hand don’t mention any cups either. The sixth, bottommost, aqueous and muddy layer of the excavated findings. The tin pitcher dated between 1350–1375 which was found in the no. 10 well at Disz ter, Buda, in 1954, was lost (Fig. 6). Another tin pitcher, dated to the late 15th century, was found during the dredging of the Danube in the 19th century, is also missing. In the collection of the Hungarian National Museum there is a tin kettle with the crest of Buda (Fig. 7). On the inside of its lid there is a „lamb of god” depiction, later the date 1541 was engraved on the top of it. Fragmentary medieval sources about the tin makers remained in Buda, Sopron and Pozsony. The so called „Ofner Stadtrecht” (Law book of Buda) from the 15th century deals with the rights of the tin makers in the 116th article. The houses of the tin pitcher craftsmen have been in the west side of the Szent Gyorgy marketplace, based on the written and archaeological dates projected to the military survey of Buda, conducted in 1687. The lost tin pitcher was found in a house once standing in front of the Szent Gyorgy chapel, on Szent Gyorgy maketplace. Later, a tin pitcher craftsman named Ulrich lived in the same house in 1479.

During the processing of the cemetery the demand emerged for a collection and publication of the excavated and only partly published cemeteries in the area. Parts of the 12 discovered cemeteries within four districts of Budapest became victims of constructions in the previous century. The burials came to light alongside the Danube from mined out dunes. Only brief reports remained about the accidentally discovered graves. There were no drawings of graves or the venue whatsoever. The handed-in fi ndings are only a mere insight of the grave goods placed next to the deceased during the burial. The biggest and with the most graves, fully excavated cemetery is the one we excavated in 2008. More graves (19) were only documented in the Csepel-Island. The examined area is really heterogeneous in regards to both fi ndings nd dating. The 12 cemeteries can be divided chronologically into 3 groups. Beside classic raves from the 10th century with Hungarian conquest age fi ndings, there are cemeteries dated to the turn of 10th-11th centuries as well as a graveyard that was in use until the middle of the 11th century. The published fi ndings could be an addition to the settlement history of the southern part of the Pest plains.

During the excavations we discovered eight Conquest period graves, 10 to 15 cm in depth, aligned NW-SE on the southeastern slope of one of the sandhills.The cemetery is believed to be the burial place of a nuclear family in the late 10th or early 11th century.

Er zeigt und illustriert die Bauarbeiten eines árpádenzeitlichen Grubenhauses von der Ausgrabung - durch die Periode der theoretischen Rekonstruktion bis zur praktischen Verwirklichung. Die schaffenden Forscher und die Experten der Verwirklichung begannen ihre Arbeit im Frühling des Jahres 1997. Ihr Zweck und Ziel war die Wiedergestaltung eines árpádenzeitlichen Grubenhauses in ihren originellen Ausmaßen.
